Hoya Krimson Queen

Hoya Krimson Queen or Hoya Tricolor (also know as Hoya Variegata) is a variegated variant of the Hoya carnosa. Its leaves are either pink or white to creamy white around the leaf edges. Cobia patented this Hoya variant in the 1950’s as a Hoya Tricolor. It was later sold as Hoya Krimson Queen and this is the name it goes by today.

New leaves on the Hoya Krimson Queen are often a very bright pink and some of the leaves can end up entirely white. A different variant is the Hoya Krimson Princess that has variegated leaves in the center.
