Introducing the Hoya imbricata - a rare find for any indoor plant enthusiast. Admire the unique foliage of this Hoya, a beautiful addition to any room. Discover this one of a kind plant that boasts a remarkable presence.

Hoya imbricata is actually a shingling plant!  They prefer to attach to a flat surface.  While grown in a hanging basket, they would prefer to attach to something!

Hoya imbricata care:

This Hoya prefers a well draining soil that is rich in organic matter.  Allow the soil to dry out almost completely before watering, taking care to not allow it to sit in excess water.  Provide your new Hoya plant with plenty of bright indirect light.

Additional Hoya information:

Hoya, commonly referred to as "Wax Plant" is a genus consisting of over 500 species.

Hoyas are widely cultivated for their aromatic blooms and unique foliage.

They are native to tropical and subtropical areas all around the world. They can be found in Latin America, Asia, Australia, etc.

Mostly epiphytic, you'll find Hoyas love to climb trees in their natural habitats.

Hoyas have a large range of foliage shapes and textures. They can be found with elongated, deeply veined leaves to thin, narrow leaves and everything in between.

Most Hoya plants can be considered easy to care for. Here at Canopy Plant Co., we only ship the healthiest Hoyas from our Apopka greenhouse.

Sizing information:

Plants are living organisms, so each one is unique and may vary slightly in size, fullness, color, and maturity depending on the season, growing conditions, and current availability. We do our best to match the product photos and descriptions as closely as possible while ensuring you receive a healthy, high-quality plant.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are Hoyas pet friendly?
Yes! Hoyas are pet friendly, but we don't recommend letting pets chew on them as the plant could still cause minor reactions.

How often should I water my Hoya?
Hoyas generally prefer to remain slightly moist, with the top 1-2" of soil being dry to the touch. Some Hoya species and cultivars prefer more or less watering. If you need watering instructions for a specific Hoya plant, please reach out to us via email - help@canopyplantco.com. We're always happy to help!

How much light does my Hoya need?
Hoyas are happiest in bright indirect light. Some Hoya plants will produce red, pink or purple tinged leaves if placed in an area where they receive a few hours of direct morning sun. Hoyas cannot tolerate direct sun for an extended amount of time, especially direct afternoon sun.

When will I know when to repot my Hoya?
If your Hoya needs to be watered more than usual or if roots are coming out of the bottom of the pot - these are good signs that your Hoya needs to be repotted. We recommend going up to the next pot size instead of making a large jump in pot size. Contrary to popular belief, Hoyas do not prefer to be rootbound in their pots.

How do I get my Hoya to bloom?
Provide suitable bright indirect light, allow the plant to mature, and retain old peduncles. Bloom timing and environmental cues vary greatly by species.

Why are my Hoya leaves wrinkly, soft or yellowing?
Wrinkling can indicate dehydration, including dehydration caused by damaged roots. Yellow or soft leaves warrant checking for overly wet soil and root rot.

Why is my Hoya producing long vines with no leaves?
Many climbing Hoyas produce exploratory vines before leaves develop. Leave a healthy growth point intact; persistent sparse growth also warrants checking light and other environmental conditions.

Such a cool plant. I've been wanting to add one to my collection of Hoyas. I think I will pot her with a wood plank so she can shingle. I've not tried that, so I'm looking forward to it. Thank you so much!

We are so glad to hear that you are loving your new Hoyas! Our team would love to see an update if you end up giving this stunner a wood plank to shingle on. They look so fantastic when they shingle. Happy planting

So different

I am enjoying my Hoya imbracata. It’s so different from my other Hoyas. I can’t wait to put it on a shingle.

Hoya Imbricata Smaller than expected

Hoya Imbricata

The plant I received is lovely and healthy. It has a few cuttings in one pot. It is still not well rooted, so I’m leaving it in its home for now. It’s a myrmecophyte and a shingling plant, so I hope to mount it on a natural wood surface to get the leaves to open and grow sort of domed/flat. I’m enjoying learning about the specific cultivation needs of this rare plant. Whether or not it ever flowers, the leaves are gorgeous!

We are glad your Hoya Imbricata was received in great condition. We are excited for you to eventually have the plant mounted onto wood, and have it shingle. It is quite a unique plant, and are glad to hear it has a happy home with you. Best of luck on you cultivation journey.

Thanks!
Kevin
