**keep the soil just barely cover the top part of the roots . Avoid soil covering any part of the leaves. Water from bottom by sitting the pot in a tray of water. keep the soil just slightly moist / on the dryer side. Too wet / soggy will cause rotting***

CARE AND MAITNANCE:

* well-drained potting soil/pot

** bright light. Only Water when soil almost dry out

Lighting: does best in bright light and a little bit of direct sun . some direct sun is beneficial in helping the Hoya flower. protect it from scorching hot summer sun. Indoors, a south or west-facing window is ideal. Variegated Hoyas like this need more light. Outdoors, Hoyas will love the bright shade, especially if they hang under a shady tree and get dappled sunlight.

Watering: During growing season - when it's hot and humid and sunny - water freely ( well drain soil in a pot with drainage hope only) In the winter, reduce your watering and make sure the soil dries out almost completely. Hoya stores water in their fleshy and succulent-like leaves, so if you forget a watering or two, your Hoya will forgive you! A good rule of thumb is to water when the leaves start to pucker just a little bit. However, letting the soil stay too dry for too long (like one might let a cactus dry out) can damage the Hoya.

Humidity + temperature: Hoya THRIVES in humidity. Other conditions like lighting and water can be less than ideal if the Hoya has high humidity that mimics their natural habitat. For this reason, Hoyas make wonderful bathroom plants if you have the right lighting! I have some of my Hoyas in more moderate humidity (around 40%) and they do fine, but I've seen a dramatic increase in growth once more humidity in introduced. Additionally, if you decide to mist your Hoya carnosa, don't do so when the plant is flowering.

Soil + fertilizer: Well-draining soil is key, as Hoyas hate to have "wet feet." A good mix is African Violet potting soil cut with perlite and orchid bark. The AV soil is very light and airy, which helps keep the soil moist, but not soggy. Perlite and orchid bark help prevent the soil from compacting and increase drainage. Hoyas are light feeders and don't require a lot of fertilizer to bloom like some flowering plants. In fact, it's best not to fertilize at all when the Hoya is in flower, as over-feeding can discourage flowering.

Repotting: Hoyas like to be disturbed as little as possible. I wouldn't say any plant "likes" to be rootbound, but Hoyas do prefer a tighter pot and are more likely to bloom if pot bound. That said, don't repot until absolutely necessary (for example, if the tight roots are causing plant issues like yellowing leaves or you find that you have to water it constantly), and pot just one size up to keep the roots nice and snug.
