Hoya linearis

Description

This wonderful plant has lovely long trailing stems with lots of little leaves running along it. When nicely hydrated the leaves will stand at a 45 degree angle to the stem, when dehydrated the leaves will lie flat against the stem. Watch out for these signs and you can’t go wrong with the watering. A fuss free plant.

WATERING

In S/S water when 50% of the top soil has dried out. In A/W allow top soil to dry out 80%.

LIGHT REQUIREMENTS

Bright, indirect.

FEED

Use a houseplant fertiliser once a month from April – October.

REPOTTING

Repot every two years to give the roots more space to grow and to replenish the soil. Use a well draining house plant compost with 30-40% added draining medium like perlite, grit or hydroleca.
