6in Hoya Krimson Queen
Best low-maintenance vining plant for indoor gardening beginners.
Introduce the vibrant 6in Hoya Krimson Queen to your home, a stunning vining houseplant celebrated for its striking variegated foliage. This established plant arrives ready to flourish in its 6-inch nursery pot, requiring bright, indirect light and moderate watering. Allow the top half of the soil to dry between waterings, as it prefers well-draining, rich soil and dislikes soggy conditions. Hoyas thrive when root-bound, so repotting is infrequent. While generally safe, ingestion may cause mild stomach upset in pets. It's an easy-care plant perfect for adding a touch of natural beauty to any indoor space.

Know before you buy
Water moderately, allowing the top half of the soil to dry out completely between waterings. This plant prefers to stay on the drier side and dislikes sitting in soggy soil, which can lead to root rot.
To keep the foliage vibrant and encourage growth, place your Hoya in a spot with bright, indirect light. Direct sun can scorch the leaves, while too little light may cause the variegation to fade.
Hoyas actually prefer to be slightly root-bound, so you will not need to repot it very often. You can wait until the roots are visibly circling the bottom of the 6-inch nursery pot before considering a move to a larger container.
This plant is not considered pet-safe. If ingested by cats or dogs, it may cause mild stomach upset, so it is best to keep it on a high shelf or in a hanging planter out of reach.
Every plant from Paraiso Plant Studio is pre-treated with organic cold-pressed Neem Oil as a preventative measure against common pests. This ensures your plant arrives healthy and ready to integrate into your indoor collection.
