Hoya 'Lotus Bena' Rooted Cutting Care & Details Origin: Information about the origin or hybrid parentage of Hoya 'Lotus Bena' has not been formally published in scientific literature. Leaves: Similar in size and shape to Hoya 'Mathilde', but with a softer texture rather than stiff leaves. The foliage is noticeably pubescent (fuzzy) with slightly raised veins, giving the plant a unique velvety look and feel. Growth rate: Growth rate has not been reliably documented but, like most Hoyas, it grows steadily under warm conditions with bright light. Watering: Allow the potting mix to dry partially between waterings. Hoyas prefer to dry slightly rather than remain constantly wet. Light: Prefers bright, indirect light. For indoor growing, place approximately 12 inches below a single Barrina T5 lights for about 14 hours per day. Ideal temperature: 70–75°F. Ideal humidity: 60–65% relative humidity. General Hoya care: Use a chunky, well-draining potting mix, avoid overwatering, and provide bright indirect light for the best growth.
