Hoya jita ‘Autumn Guava’ is a variegated selection of Hoya jita, a species native to Thailand. This cultivar was introduced by Jordan of North Austin Plant Co., where a neighboring guava tree would drop pink and green fruit into the yard throughout the autumn season. The plant's distinctive pink sunstressed center and deep green margins mirror the colors of those guavas, inspiring the name ‘Autumn Guava.’ It features elongated, gently undulating leaves with broad creamy yellow to chartreuse inner variegation framed by rich green margins. Mature plants produce clusters of fragrant, star-shaped blooms.
This listing is for the exact plant shown. It is a rooted and established one-leaf cutting with active growth.
Care
• Light: Bright, indirect light; stronger light may encourage the signature pink center while maintaining strong variegation
• Water: Allow medium to dry partially between waterings
• Humidity: Prefers moderate to higher humidity
Variegation pattern, sunstress coloration, and vine length may continue to develop as the plant matures.
