Pro Tip

Don’t cut off the bare stems after flowering—those spurs are where the next blooms will form. The more mature the plant, the more likely it is to flower again.

  • Light and Placement

    Thrives in bright, indirect light. While it can tolerate medium light, brighter conditions promote better growth and flowering potential. Avoid prolonged direct sunlight, which can scorch leaves, especially in the afternoon.

  • Watering and Care

    Allow the top half of the soil to dry out between waterings. Hoya carnosa stores moisture in its succulent-like leaves and prefers to stay on the dry side. Use a chunky, well-draining mix and avoid overwatering. Benefits from moderate humidity but adjusts well to average indoor conditions.

  • Growth and Size

    A slow to moderate grower with long, trailing vines that can reach several feet over time. Can be left to drape, trained on a trellis, or wrapped around a hoop. Blooms may appear on older growth when the plant is well-established.

  • Pet-Friendly?


    Hoya carnosa is generally considered non-toxic, making it a safe choice for households with pets.

  • Benefits and Air Quality


    Offers light air-purifying properties and brings a lush, calming look to any corner. When it blooms, it adds a sweet, subtle fragrance to the space.

  • Difficulty level

    Easy – A low-maintenance trailing plant that thrives on a light touch.
