Hoya Macrophylla Red – A Striking Hoya with Blush-Toned Leaves

The Hoya Macrophylla Red is a rare and visually stunning Hoya variety, known for its large, textured leaves that develop red and pink hues under bright light. With its contrasting veining and thick, succulent-like foliage, this Hoya is a must-have for collectors.

Collector’s Overview
Broad, corrugated leaves with bold, map-like veins and a blush that tips toward cherry under brighter exposure—Hoya macrophylla ‘Red’ brings sculptural foliage and the promise of waxy, starry umbels on a mature vine. Clean lines, low fuss, high reward.

Identity & Leaf Notes

  • Botanical: Hoya macrophylla ‘Red’
  • Habit: scandent, semi-succulent vine; thick, textured blades with prominent venation
  • Color play: green leaves that can flush pink-to-red at the margins with strong, gentle light
  • Indoor scale: ~40–100 cm (16–39 in) with light training
  • Pet note: generally non-toxic; discourage chewing

Placement & Light
Aim for bright, diffused daylight (east aspect or filtered skylight). A touch of morning sun enhances the red edging; harsh midday glare can mark leaves. Keep the plant a little off the window so the venation reads in relief.

Hydration & Medium
Water thoroughly, then let the top layer dry back—this species dislikes a constantly wet root zone. Use a quick-draining epiphytic blend (orchid bark + pumice/perlite + coco fiber; a light sphagnum touch) to keep oxygen moving through the roots.

Growth & Training
Guide stems along a hoop, ladder, or minimalist trellis for tidy presentation and closer internodes. Feed lightly at ¼–½ strength during active months. Typical comfort range: ~45–65% RH, 18–29 °C (65–85 °F).

Bloom Pointers
Mature, well-lit vines produce clustered, star-shaped flowers. Don’t remove peduncles (flower spurs)—they rebloom from the same points. Stable light and restrained watering between soaks encourage buds.

Settle-In Notes
Raise brightness gradually over 7–10 days after positioning. New leaves often display the crispest veining and the richest red margin as the plant stabilizes.
