Native to
Zambales region of Luzon, Philippines. In its natural habitat, it thrives as an epiphyte in tropical forests.
Water
Allow the soil to dry out between waterings, as this Hoya is susceptible to root rot if overwatered. Water thoroughly, ensuring excess water drains away. During the active growing seasons of spring and summer, maintain consistent moisture levels, reducing frequency in cooler months.
Light
Prefers bright, indirect light. Avoid direct sunlight, which can scorch the leaves. Insufficient light may result in leggy growth and reduced flowering. An east-facing window with morning sun is ideal.
Humidity
Thrives in moderate to high humidity levels. If indoor air is dry, especially during winter, consider using a humidifier or placing the plant on a pebble tray with water to maintain adequate moisture levels.
Temperature
Fares well in typical household temperatures ranging from 16–24°C. Protect the plant from cold drafts and avoid temperatures below 14°C, as prolonged exposure can cause damage or dormancy.
