Know before you buy
This plant prefers bright, indirect light. Placing it near an east or west-facing window where it can receive filtered sun will help maintain its foliage health and encourage future blooming.
As a succulent, it prefers a moderate watering schedule. Allow the top inch or two of soil to dry out completely between waterings to prevent root rot, as it does not like to sit in soggy soil.
No, the Hoya sp. aff burtoniae is toxic to pets if ingested. It is best kept in a location that is inaccessible to curious animals, such as a high shelf or a hanging planter.
It appreciates medium humidity levels, which are typically found in most average home environments. If your home is particularly dry, you can maintain its health by grouping it with other plants or using a pebble tray.
This Hoya is a natural climber or trailer, making it an excellent candidate for hanging baskets or shelves where its vines can drape gracefully. As it grows at a medium rate, you can train the vines around a small trellis or let them trail freely.
Yes, your Hoya arrives fully potted in a 4-inch container with soil, so it is ready for immediate placement in your home. No immediate repotting is necessary upon arrival.
