🌱 Care Guide

Give your Hoya vitellinoides a patient, nurturing environment and it will reward you with its impressive, glowing foliage.

• Light: Bright, indirect light is ideal. Avoid harsh direct sun which may scorch the leaves.
• Water: Water when the top 2–3 inches of soil feel dry. Hoyas prefer to dry slightly between waterings.
• Humidity: Loves moderate to high humidity (60%+). Mist or use a humidifier for lush growth.
• Soil: Use a chunky, airy mix (orchid bark, perlite, coco chips) to keep roots happy.
• Temperature: Thrives in 65–85°F. Keep away from cold drafts.
• Fertilizer: Feed monthly during spring and summer with a balanced or Hoya-specific fertilizer.
