An intriguing and unique Hoya, Hoya shepherdii boasts long, slender green leaves that resemble green beans making it a conversation starter in any collection. In summer it produces fragrant white flowers with a striking red centre.

Easy to grow, this variety thrives in hanging baskets where it can trail gracefully, but will also climb if given support. Best grown indoors, it enjoys bright indirect light and should be watered regularly during the warmer months, allowing the soil to dry out slightly between waterings and kept drier in winter. Ensure it has good drainage to flourish.
