☀️ Light
☀️☀️▫️ (Medium)
The Hoya Krohniana Silver Splash Wax Plant thrives in bright, indirect light. While it can tolerate some direct sunlight, too much can scorch its beautiful leaves. A spot near a window with a sheer curtain would be ideal to filter the light.
💧 Water
💧💧▫️ (Medium)
This plant likes to dry out between waterings. Check the top inch of soil; if it’s dry, it’s time to water. Be cautious not to overwater, as Hoya prefers to be on the drier side rather than soggy.
🌡️️ Temperature
🌡️️🌡️️▫️ (Average)
Hoya Krohniana enjoys typical indoor temperatures, ranging from 18°C to 24°C. Keep it away from draughty areas and sudden temperature changes to avoid stress.
💦 Humidity
💦💦▫️ (Moderate)
This plant prefers moderate humidity but is quite adaptable and can tolerate lower humidity levels found in most homes. For optimal growth, consider misting the leaves or using a humidity tray.
💦 Repotting
Repotting is seldom needed as Hoyas like to be root-bound. Every 2 to 3 years or when the plant has clearly outgrown its pot, repot in spring using a well-draining succulent or Hoya-specific potting mix to encourage health and growth.
🐾 Pet Friendliness
This plant is non-toxic to cats and dogs, making it a worry-free choice for pet owners.
