Hoya “Jennifer” (H. incrassataXH. finlaysonii) 4” pot

CARE:

• Thrives with consistent bright, indirect light. A bit of morning or late afternoon sun is beneficial but avoid prolonged exposure to intense, direct midday sun (especially during our peak summer months), which can fade or scorch the leaves, and potentially dry out emerging flowers.

• Watering needs can vary depending on the potting media. If the Hoya is in potting soil, you typically want to wait for the soil to be about 70-90 percent dry before watering. If it is in a chunkier mix (intended for epiphytes), then you will typically have to water more frequently since water is bound to work its way through the potting media quickly. In the case of chunkier media, water when the first 1/4-1/3 of the substrate feels dry. It is essential to Hoya health to refrain from keeping any potting media constantly wet, as Hoya are sensitive to overwatering, and this can quickly lead to root rot.

• Does well with moderate to high humidity, which can help its flowers bloom, but this plant is adaptable to household humidity, 

• Due to its epiphytic nature, Hoya can tolerate being a bit root bound so it can typically go for several years between upsizing its pot.
