Rooted Hoya burmanica Starter Plant — 6 Leaves

Narrow, lanceolate leaves on upright, sparsely branched stems give burmanica a look almost no other Hoya offers — less trailing wax plant, more little shrub, with foliage that can pick up faint silver flecking as it matures. Six leaves and a live growth point mean this one is well past the fragile cutting stage and actively building. It's a species with a good story behind it: described by Rolfe in 1920, endemic to Myanmar, and nicknamed the long-lost Hoya of Myanmar because it went so long confused with lookalikes like Hoya pandurata. You'll still see it traded under the polyneura complex label, and it remains genuinely uncommon in collections. Growers who keep it often describe it as an easy one — an epiphytic subshrub from wet tropical forest, so it appreciates a chunky, well-draining mix and bright indirect light rather than a soggy pot. Rooted and growing in a 3.5-inch pot of Fox Farm Coco Loco, in healthy condition with no issues noted, so it can go on the shelf as-is.

Uncommon Myanmar-endemic Hoya with narrow, upright, shrub-like foliage. One rooted starter, 6 leaves, active growth point, healthy, potted in a 3.5" pot of Fox Farm Coco Loco.
