SOIL REQUIREMENT
- Use a well-aerated fast-draining potting soil for a Hoya plant. Add a little sand to the soil to loosen it up even more if the soil seems heavy.
FEEDING/FERTILIZER REQUIREMENT
- Feed a Hoya Plant monthly with a balanced houseplant food at 1/2 the recommended strength when it is actively growing.
LIGHT REQUIREMENT
- Hoya Plants do best and bloom more in very bright light.
- Hoya Plants are one of the few indoor houseplants that can even thrive in direct sun.
- Although Hoya Plants can adapt to lower light, they grow slower and do not produce the fragrant porcelain-like flowers that are so beautiful.
WATER REQUIREMENT
- Hoya Plants are succulents and need to completely dry out before being watered.
- Hoya Plants do thrive on neglect but need additional water when in bloom.
