Hoya Burtoniae 'Variegata' boasts beautiful, leathery, variegated foliage. The slightly elongated oval leaves display a mix of dark green to light green and sometimes an orange hue. A very vigorous plant, it loves to climb! Its blooms are unique and fragrant. However, it rarely flowers before it is 2 years old. To encourage flowering, it is recommended to place it in a bright room and reduce the frequency of repotting. It likes to be pot-bound.
