Name: Hoya sipitangensis
Scientific Name: Hoya sipitangensis
Family: Apocynaceae
Product Description:
Hoya sipitangensis is a captivating climbing vine native to the coastal forests and lowland hill regions of Borneo, particularly in Brunei and Sabah, Malaysia. It features deep green, oval-shaped leaves that develop a striking red hue when exposed to bright, indirect sunlight. The plant produces clusters of fragrant, white, star-shaped flowers with a distinctive red corona (center), which adds a touch of magic to its overall beauty. Hoya sipitangensis thrives in the wet tropical biome and grows as an epiphyte or lithophyte, meaning it can grow on other plants or rocks. This Hoya is relatively compact compared to some other species, making it ideal for hanging baskets, shelves, or climbing a moss pole.

Growing Instructions:
It prefers bright, indirect sunlight for optimal red coloration of the leaves. Watering should be done sparingly, allowing the soil to dry out between waterings to prevent root rot. It benefits from a peat-based potting mix and thrives under T-5 fluorescent lighting in a humid grow-tent.
Ships in 3.5" pots. You will receive a plant similar to the ones pictured, though size and fullness may vary. Please understand that shipped plants have bumpy rides. A few broken leaves or small stems are normal during shipping and are not considered damage. Broken stems can be rooted once the cut end dries to start new growth. Plants may arrive semi‑dormant, and in winter they may naturally drop a few leaves. If your plant arrives rotting or dead, we will replace it. Please contact us with photo proof within 24 hours of delivery. After 24 hours, plant care becomes the buyer’s responsibility, though we’re always happy to answer questions and help you succeed. We also add brief instructions on getting started when you open your box. We want our plant babies to have happy new homes! 🥰
Heat packs are available to purchase in our shop for cold-sensitive plants. Keep in mind some plants we carry are very tropical and even cold, not freezing, temperatures can kill them. 📌IF YOU EXPECT COLD WEATHER, PLEASE PURCHASE A HEAT PACK! 📌 These are necessary for winter shipping, so I sell them at cost. I won't refund or replace any frozen plants unless you buy one!
