Your Guide to Caring for the Hoya Carnosa Tricolour Wax Plant

☀️ Light

Emoji Scale: ☀️☀️▫️ (Medium)

This lovely plant thrives in bright, indirect light. A spot where it can soak up some gentle morning sun would be ideal, enhancing its vibrant leaf variegation.

💧 Water

Emoji Scale: 💧💧▫️ (Medium)

Water your Hoya Carnosa Tricolour when the top inch of soil feels dry. Be sure to let the soil dry out between waterings to prevent root rot.

🌡️ Temperature

Emoji Scale: 🌡️🌡️▫️ (Average)

Hoyas prefer average room temperatures between 16°C to 24°C. Avoid placing your plant near drafts or sources of extreme cold or heat.

💦 Humidity

Emoji Scale: 💦💦▫️ (Moderate)

The Hoya Carnosa Tricolour enjoys average to slightly higher humidity levels. Occasional misting will keep it happy, especially during drier months.

🪴 Repotting

Repot your Hoya every 2-3 years or when it outgrows its pot. Use Highland Moss premium succulent potting mix for the best results. This ensures healthy roots and vibrant growth.

🐾 Pet Friendliness

This plant is generally considered pet-safe. However, ingestion in large quantities might cause mild stomach upset in pets.

🏠 Recommended Locations at Home

Ideal spots include shelves, windowsills, or in hanging planters where it can beautifully trail down. Bright, well-lit kitchens and living rooms are perfect.

🌿 Air Purifying

The Hoya Carnosa Tricolour is known for its air-purifying qualities, making it a great addition to any indoor space for a fresher environment.

✨ Other Plant Features

Besides its stunning looks and air-purifying capabilities, mature plants may produce clusters of star-shaped, sweetly scented flowers — a delightful bonus for plant lovers!
