Hoya sp. Aceh, originating from Aceh in Sumatra, Indonesia, is a striking Hoya variety known for its vibrant green, pointed leaves with pronounced dark green veining. This slow-growing, epiphytic vine makes an attractive addition to indoor collections due to its distinctive leaf pattern and ease of care.
Hoya sp. Aceh is native to the tropical rainforests of Aceh in Sumatra, where it thrives in warm, humid conditions under the filtered light of forest canopies. This natural environment influences its indoor care preferences for indirect light, high humidity, and well-draining soil.
Water when the top inch of soil feels dry, taking care not to overwater, as the plant is sensitive to root rot. Ensure that excess water can fully drain to avoid waterlogging. In winter, reduce watering frequency to accommodate its slower growth rate.
Bright, indirect light is ideal for Hoya sp. Aceh. Place it near an east or north-facing window or provide filtered light if grown near a brighter spot. Direct sunlight can scorch the leaves, but gentle morning or late afternoon sun may enhance its natural veining.
This Hoya prefers moderate to high humidity, ideally around 50-60% or more. If indoor air is dry, especially in winter, consider misting or placing the plant on a pebble tray to maintain adequate moisture. A humidifier is also helpful in drier climates.
Hoya sp. Aceh grows best in warm indoor temperatures of 18-27°C (65-80°F). Avoid exposure to cold drafts or temperatures below 15°C (59°F) to prevent stress on the plant. Its tropical origins make it sensitive to sudden temperature drops.
