Description
Hoya finlaysonii ‘Nova’ is a striking collector Hoya known for its thick, veined leaves and bold tropical appearance. The foliage often features deep green coloring with prominent darker veining, giving the plant a textured, high-contrast look. Its vining growth makes it a great choice for trellises, shelves, hanging baskets, and bright indoor plant displays.
Light Requirements
For best growth and leaf patterning, place Hoya finlaysonii ‘Nova’ in bright, indirect light. It can tolerate some gentle morning sun, but avoid harsh afternoon sun, which may scorch the leaves. Brighter indirect light can help support stronger growth and may encourage blooming once the plant is mature.
Watering
Allow the soil to dry at least halfway between waterings. Hoya finlaysonii ‘Nova’ has thick, semi-succulent leaves and prefers to dry slightly rather than stay wet. Use a chunky, well-draining mix and a pot with drainage to help prevent root rot.
Temperature & Humidity
This plant prefers warm indoor temperatures and moderate to higher humidity. Keep it away from cold drafts, air vents, and temperatures below 60°F. Higher humidity can help support stronger growth, especially for newer leaves.
Pet Safety
Hoya finlaysonii ‘Nova’ is generally considered pet-friendly and non-toxic to cats and dogs. It is still best to keep it out of reach of pets that like to chew on plants.
Best For
Hoya finlaysonii ‘Nova’ is best for Hoya collectors, trellises, shelves, hanging baskets, and plant owners who want a pet-friendly vining plant with bold veined foliage and collector appeal.
