Hoya Chelseas are one of our favorite plants with their heart-shaped leaves (we love a lot of Hoyas)! Under the right condiions, mature hoyas can develop beautiful clusters of fragrant star-shaped flowers. Beautiful as a trailing plant.

HOYA CARNOSA 'CHELSEA'

Thrives in bright to medium indirect light. Not suited for intense, direct sun as leaves will burn.
Hoyas will produce clusters of star-shaped flowers. Don't cut the flower stem once the flowers are spent. Leave them as this is where the plant will flower from in the future! Do not attempt to move your hoya once in bloom, they are sensitive to change during this time and might drop the flowers.

Fertilize once a month during the spring and summer.
