Hoya Caudata Sumatra

Hoya caudata 'Sumatra' — a Sumatran form of Hoya caudata, with long narrow leaves marked by intense silver flecking and a slight curl. The species is fragrance-bearing; blooms produce small clusters of fuzzy pink-and-yellow flowers with a notable scent.

Also known as: the Tailed Hoya.

What you'll receive: Choose your form above. Grower's choice unless otherwise noted in the variant selection — we hand-select a healthy specimen; exact size, leaf count, and patterning vary between individuals.

• Unrooted cuttings & newly rooted plants: potted in our rooting medium (moss petals, perlite, tree fern fiber, small Orchitata, myco). Cuttings can be shipped bare/in damp moss instead — message us at the time of order if you'd prefer that.
• Established plants: potted in tree fern fiber, perlite, coconut husk, myco (occasionally moss petals), with slow-release 14-14-14 fertilizer balls.

Care:

• Light: Bright, indirect
• Water: Slightly underwatered; let dry partway between waterings
• Humidity: 50% tolerated; 60%+ encourages stronger leaf expression and faster growth
• Peduncles: Don't disturb flower spurs once they appear — Hoyas rebloom from the same spot year after year

Insulation and/or Heat Pack strongly recommended for shipping when temperatures drop below 50°F.
