Light
Thrives in bright to medium indirect light. Not suited for intense, direct sun as leaves will burn.
Water
Water when the top 2-3 inches of soil dries out. Hoyas are very sensitive to overwatering or water-logged soil. Err on the side of underwatering vs. overwatering.
Tips
- 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.
Toxicity
This plant is not considered toxic.
