Dischidias are trailing, twining, or vining epiphytes and are considered the sister genus of Hoya. It’s also a great choice for those with limited indoor space, as it can thrive in small containers and doesn’t require a lot of room to grow.
When it comes to care, the Watermelon Dischidia Ovata prefers bright, indirect light and well-draining soil. It’s important to allow the soil to dry out slightly between waterings. Do Not let Dischidia sit in excess water. Although Dischidia can be grown in full sun or high light conditions, leaves may bleach or yellow from the light stress so it is advised to grow them in medium to low light levels. Dischidia are considerably hardy and tolerant of a wide range of growing conditions, but for the best growth it is recommended to provide higher levels of humidity.
