  • The Formal Name: Hoya calycina 'Stargazer'

Care Guide

  • Care Guide:
  • Sunlight: She needs bright, indirect light to bloom. Some direct morning sun is perfect.
  • Best Room: A bright bedroom or living room where you can enjoy her nighttime fragrance.
  • Snacks: A balanced liquid fertiliser every month during the growing season.
  • Tropical Feels: She loves humidity! 60% or higher is ideal to keep her fuzzy leaves healthy.
  • Cosy Factor: Keep it warm (18–27°C). She’s sensitive to cold and doesn't like drafts.
  • Thirst: Allow the top 50% of the soil to dry out before watering. She likes to stay a bit drier than other Hoyas.
  • Safety First: Pet-Friendly! Safe for all your household companions.
  • The Bedding: A very chunky, airy mix—think orchid bark, perlite, and coco coir.
  • Family Tree: Propagate via stem cuttings in the spring or summer.
  • Space Needs: A vigorous climber that needs a trellis or hoop to stay organized.
  • Speed: A moderate grower that rewards patience with spectacular, scented blooms.
  • Uninvited Guests: Watch for aphids and mealybugs on the new, fuzzy growth.
  • Moving Day: Repot every 2–3 years; like most Hoyas, she prefers a snug fit.
  • Haircut: Be careful not to prune her flower spurs, as she’ll re-bloom from them!
  • Fresh Air: A lush air-purifier that adds a natural perfume to your indoor space.
  • Plant Lore: Her flowers are known to be most fragrant at night to attract specific pollinators.
