Dhs. 225.00

Size: 30cm, comes in nursery pot 


🌿 Light

  • Bright, indirect light is ideal.
  • Gentle morning sun is beneficial.
  • Avoid harsh afternoon sun, which can scorch the leaves.
  • Brighter light encourages compact growth and flowering.

💧 Water

  • Water when the potting mix is almost dry.
  • Hoyas prefer to dry slightly between waterings.
  • Reduce watering during cooler months.

💦 Humidity

  • Prefers 60–80% humidity.
  • Can adapt to average indoor humidity (40–50%), but higher humidity promotes faster growth and healthier foliage.

🌡️ Temperature

  • Ideal: 18–30°C (65–86°F)
  • Avoid temperatures below 15°C (59°F).
  • Protect from cold drafts.

🪴 Growing Medium
Use a chunky, fast-draining mix such as:

  • Orchid bark
  • Perlite or pumice
  • Coco chips
  • Coco peat or peat moss
  • Horticultural charcoal (optional)

Good airflow around the roots is essential.

🌱 Fertilizer

  • Feed every 2–4 weeks during spring and summer with a balanced liquid fertilizer at half strength.
  • Reduce feeding in autumn and winter.

🌸 Flowering

  • Mature plants produce clusters of fragrant, star-shaped flowers.
  • Avoid removing old flower spurs (peduncles), as they bloom repeatedly from the same spot.

✂️ Growth Habit

  • Trailing or climbing vine.
  • Looks beautiful in a hanging basket or trained on a small trellis.
  • Prune lightly to encourage branching.

⚠️ Special Care

  • Avoid overwatering, as Hoyas are prone to root rot.
  • Keep the leaves clean to maximize photosynthesis.
  • Repot only when root-bound—Hoyas generally prefer snug pots.

🐾 Pet Safety

  • Considered non-toxic to cats and dogs, making it a pet-friendly houseplant.

Difficulty: ★★☆☆☆ (Easy to Intermediate)

With bright indirect light, a chunky potting mix, and allowing the soil to dry slightly between waterings, Hoya walliniana is an easy, rewarding species that develops attractive foliage and fragrant blooms as it matures.
