Care Guide
  • Care Guide:
  • Sunlight: She loves bright, indirect light. A little morning sun will bring out those pink/red tints on new growth!
  • Best Room: Hanging in a bright kitchen or trailing from a high shelf in the living room.
  • Snacks: A balanced liquid feed every 4 weeks during the growing season.
  • Tropical Feels: Appreciates moderate humidity but is quite happy in standard home air.
  • Cosy Factor: Keep her warm (18–27°C). She hates a cold winter draft.
  • Thirst: Let the top 50% of the soil dry out before watering. She likes to be slightly drier than other Hoyas.
  • Safety First: Pet-Friendly! Completely safe for your furry roommates.
  • The Bedding: An airy, chunky mix—orchid bark, perlite, and a bit of potting soil.
  • Family Tree: Easily propagated through stem cuttings in water or damp perlite.
  • Space Needs: A vigorous trailer that can reach lengths of 2–3 metres if left unpruned.
  • Speed: A moderate to fast grower that rewards bright light with lush, colorful vines.
  • Uninvited Guests: Watch for mealybugs hiding in the leaf joints.
  • Moving Day: She loves to be root-bound; only repot every 2–3 years in spring.
  • Haircut: Don't snip off the flower stalks (peduncles)—she blooms from the same spot every year!
  • Fresh Air: A fragrant air-purifier that adds a touch of class to any room.
  • Plant Lore: Her white flowers are famous for their intense, spicy-sweet fragrance, especially at night.
