Know before you buy
This plant requires bright light to thrive and produce flowers. Place it in a spot that receives plenty of indirect sunlight, such as near a south or west-facing window.
Water the plant thoroughly only when the soil feels dry to the touch, which typically happens about once a week indoors. Avoid letting the plant sit in standing water to prevent root rot.
We recommend waiting at least one week after delivery before repotting. This allows the plant to acclimate to your home's environment and reduces transplant shock.
No, this plant is toxic to pets. It is best to keep it in a location that is inaccessible to curious animals.
The Hoya Inflata prefers warm conditions between 65-85°F. Keep it away from cold drafts, air conditioning vents, or heaters to maintain its health.
