☀️ Light

The Hoya Gracilis thrives in a well-lit area with plenty of filtered sunlight. While it can grow in medium light, more light may encourage blooming. Direct morning sunlight or soft afternoon light is ideal to maintain vibrant leaf variegation.
? Water

Water your Hoya Gracilis when the top inch of the soil feels dry. Ensure the pot has good drainage, as Hoyas do not like to sit in waterlogged soil. It’s better to under-water than over-water this resilient plant.

This plant is pet-friendly, so it’s safe to keep around your furry friends without worry.
