Instructions d'entretien

Hoya carnosa thrives in bright, indirect light and prefers moderate temperatures. It enjoys a humid environment but can tolerate average household humidity levels. Water the plant when the top layer of soil dries out, and ensure good air circulation to prevent fungal issues.

Sol

Hoya carnosa prefers well-draining soil, such as a mix of loam and perlite or orchid bark. The soil should retain some moisture but not stay waterlogged. Good drainage is essential to prevent root rot.

Engrais

Feed Hoya carnosa with a balanced liquid fertilizer, such as a 2-1-2 formula, every 4-6 weeks during the growing season. Reduce feeding during the winter months when the plant's growth slows down.

Rempotage

Repot Hoya carnosa every 2-3 years or when it outgrows its pot. Choose a slightly larger pot with good drainage. Gently remove the plant from its current pot, shake off excess soil, and place it in the new pot with fresh soil mix.

Propagation

Hoya carnosa can be propagated through stem cuttings. Take a cutting with at least two nodes, allow it to callous for a day, and then plant it in a well-draining soil mix. Keep the soil moist and provide bright, indirect light until roots develop.

Taille

Prune Hoya carnosa to control its size and shape, and to encourage bushier growth. Remove dead or yellowing leaves and trim back long vines. Pruning can be done throughout the year as needed.

Toxicité

Hoya carnosa is generally non-toxic to pets and humans. However, it is always best to keep plants out of reach of pets and children to avoid any potential issues.

Supplémentaire

Hoya carnosa can benefit from occasional misting to increase humidity, especially in dry indoor environments. It is also known for its ability to purify the air, making it a great addition to any home.
