Hoya Sulawesiana ‘Red Sun-Stressed’ – Deep Red Foliage Hoya from Sulawesi

Hoya sulawesiana ‘Red Sun-Stressed’ is a beautiful and highly collectible form of Hoya sulawesiana, admired for its dramatic foliage color change. Under brighter light conditions, the normally green leaves develop deep red, bronze, or burgundy sun-stressed tones, giving the plant a bold and exotic appearance.

The leaves are typically thick, leathery, and elongated, with clear venation and a strong, sturdy texture. As the plant matures, the red coloration can become more intense and evenly distributed, especially on newer growth exposed to higher light levels.

Growth is climbing to semi-scandent, performing best with support such as poles or trellises. While mature plants may produce attractive flowers, Hoya sulawesiana ‘Red Sun-Stressed’ is primarily collected for its rich red foliage and Sulawesi origin, making it a standout foliage specimen.

Why collectors love this plant:

• Authentic Sulawesi-origin Hoya

Care overview:
