Flowering

The flower photograph shows the expected bloom. Plants are not necessarily supplied in flower or with developing buds.

Once flowering begins, avoid removing the old flower spurs. Established peduncles can produce flowers repeatedly over successive seasons.

Care

• Light: Bright, filtered light to gentle morning sun. Good light encourages stronger growth and flowering.
• Water: Water thoroughly, then allow the growing media to partially dry before watering again.
• Media: Use an open, free-draining Hoya or epiphytic mix.
• Temperature: Best grown in warm conditions. Protect from frost and prolonged temperatures below approximately 10°C.
• Humidity: Average to moderately high humidity is suitable when accompanied by good air movement.
• Fertiliser: Feed lightly during active growth using a balanced fertiliser at reduced strength.
• Repotting: Hoyas generally perform well in relatively snug pots. Repot only when required.

Transport Note

Long runners may be gently curved or secured for transport. Minor leaf movement or cosmetic marking may occur during packing and delivery without affecting the plant’s health.
