The Compact Variegated Hoya (Hoya compacta 'Variegated'), also known as the Variegated Hindu Rope Plant, is a unique and visually stunning houseplant. Its waxy, twisted foliage showcases a blend of green and creamy white, making it a standout addition to any plant collection. Perfect for hanging baskets or tabletop displays, this compact, trailing plant is low-maintenance and beginner-friendly. When well-cared for, it produces clusters of star-shaped, pink flowers that add a tropical touch to your indoor space. Beyond its beauty, this Hoya also helps purify indoor air, making it as functional as it is decorative.
Best Locations For Growing Compact Variegated Hoya
The Compact Variegated Hoya thrives in bright, indirect light and works beautifully in living rooms, bedrooms, or offices. It’s ideal for hanging baskets or displayed on shelves where its cascading vines can shine. Average household humidity is sufficient, but increased humidity will make this plant even happier.
Compact Variegated Hoya Sunlight Requirements
This plant prefers bright, indirect light and can tolerate some direct morning or late afternoon sun. Avoid harsh midday sunlight, which may scorch its leaves. For optimal flowering, ensure consistent bright light.
Compact Variegated Hoya Care
Plant the Compact Variegated Hoya in a well-draining soil mix with added pumice or perlite to mimic its natural epiphytic habitat. Repot every 2–3 years or when roots outgrow the container. Avoid removing peduncles after blooming, as the plant will reflower from the same structures.
Watering Compact Variegated Hoya
Allow the top 2–3 inches of soil to dry before watering. Water thoroughly, letting excess drain away to prevent root rot. During winter, reduce watering frequency, as the plant’s growth slows. Ensure the pot has drainage holes to maintain a healthy root system.
Feeding Compact Variegated Hoya
Feed monthly during the growing season (spring through fall) with a diluted fertilizer formulated for blooming plants, such as a 7-9-5 blend. Pause feeding in winter. Regular fertilization encourages healthy growth and vibrant blooms.

The warranty is purchased on a per plant basis and must be purchased at the same time as the plant(s). We will cover 100% of the price of the plant, but the warranty does not cover shipping costs.

Plant Shipping
Below are some factors we consider when determining when to ship the plants depending on the timing of the order.
Winter to Early Spring
We ship only when it's warm enough to plant in your growing zone.
Sometimes plants aren't completely ready to sell and ship in early spring. We will wait until the plants are ready before shipping so you don't get a subpar product.
For Southern plants we will be able to ship much earlier than plants coming from our northern nursery.
Summer
If there is extreme heat we may delay shipping for a week or several weeks.
We review what areas the plants are traveling through as well as your location.
Fall into Winter
We’ll ship plants out all the way up to the end of the fall planting season!
Winter
Get your order in early to reserve your plants for Spring planting!
Once your plant is shipped you’ll receive an automated email with tracking information.
