Hoya carnosa are one of the popular hoyas among enthusiasts due to their relatively simple care requirements (see next tabs). This variation of the carnosa, grows leaves with beautiful creamy white/yellow centres.

Note: If your Hoya grows long tendrils, do not cut them! If the tendril finds a spot to grip to, and with enough light, it can develop leaves along the length. Wrap the tendril around a trellis to help your plant develop these leaves.


Pet lovers will be happy to know that these plants are non-toxic. But please don't let cute little Boo nibble these beautiful leaves!

Note: Plants are unique! The plant pictured is meant to give you an idea of the specification and quality of the plant you will receive, but will not be an exact replica.

Light Requirements

Bright indirect

In their natural habitat, hoyas are often shaded by taller plants/trees. Therefore, bright indirect light is best. Although hoyas can be sunstressed by exposing the plant to more sunlight than necessary (sunstressing can result in beautiful reddish leaf colours), direct light that is too intense, can cause burning and fading of leaves. Low light can result in darker leaves.

Water Requirements

Moderate

In general, it is better to wait a day if you are unsure whether to water your hoya. Water when the top half of soil is dry. Consider watering less during the winter season. Note: Be sure not to let the plant sit in pooled water as that can cause root rot.

Wow! Gorgeous Healthy and Safely Delivered ๐Ÿ’•

The owner was so helpful and went way beyond and above my expectations. She personally answered my follow-up questions. The plant looks exactly like the photo but this one that I gave to a family member has grown substantially since February. It's absolutely beautiful. Thank you for all the personal attention that you freely gave me.๐Ÿค—

The plants arrived in great condition. Safiya was wonderful in timing the delivery with watching the temperatures for our area for a window of acceptable degrees. The plants were well packed, and arrived in great condition (even though they spent the entire day in the delivery truck) All of the hoya's have multiple new leaves since arriving and are enjoying their new home. I couldn't be happier. I'm looking forward to ordering again in the spring.
