Hoya Carnosa Nova Ghost

A stunning variety of Hoya Carnosa, known for its striking, almost translucent, light green to white leaves, which give it a unique, “ghostly” appearance. The Nova Ghost variant features thick, waxy leaves that are lighter in color compared to the typical Hoya Carnosa, and they may develop a slight blush of pink or red in strong light. This variety is favored for its dramatic appearance and the ability to produce clusters of fragrant, star-shaped flowers that are usually white or pink, adding another layer of appeal.

Difficulty:

Hoya Carnosa Nova Ghost requires consistent humidity and bright, indirect light to maintain its light-colored leaves. It is more sensitive to overwatering, so it’s important to let the soil dry out between waterings. Well-draining soil is essential to prevent root rot. This variety is best suited for intermediate plant owners who can provide the proper care to maintain its unique appearance.
