We are so happy to offer a new Hoya to you, our Hoya crassipetiolata are full pots with a minimum of 4-6 cuttings per pot, that have all started to vine and are ready to ship from our greenhouse to your home! Its foliage is medium green with dark green veins and leaf margin, that can develop random silver specks. When exposed to direct sun the leaves will develop beautiful shades of red and purple. These have been grown in bright indirect light inside our greenhouse, so they need to be gradually acclimated to direct sun to avoid scorching the leaves.
~Do Not let Hoya sit in excess water. As epiphytes, in the wild they would be growing on tree trunks or branches in the forest understory where they would get most of their water just from dew or moisture in the air.
~Hoya are considerably hardy & tolerant of a wide range of growing conditions, but for the best growth it is recommended to provide higher levels of humidity.
~Do Not remove the peduncles [flower stalks] after your Hoya has finished flowering. Hoya are able to rebloom again & again from the same peduncle!
~Feed regularly during the growing season with a low nitrogen fertilizer containing sufficient amounts of phosphorous and potassium.
