Hoya carnosa ‘Krimson Queen’ produces thick, waxy leaves with a deep green centre and broad, creamy-white to pale pink margins. New growth often emerges with a warm pink tone that fades to cream as the leaf matures. Some leaves are almost entirely white, others mostly green, giving each vine a varied, dynamic look. It trails or climbs with equal ease and in the right conditions produces clusters of fragrant, star-shaped, porcelain-pink flowers. A long-lived, rewarding hanging plant.

Origins
Hoya carnosa is native to East Asia and Australasia, growing as an epiphyte in tropical and subtropical forest canopy. ‘Krimson Queen’ is a cultivar selected for its broad creamy-white leaf margins.
