Water the plant when the top layer of soil dries out, but avoid letting it sit in water. It can be grown both indoors and outdoors in suitable climates.Bodem
Hoya kerrii prefers well-draining soil, such as a mix of loam and perlite. Ensure the soil is airy to prevent root rot. A pot with drainage holes is essential to allow excess water to escape.Kunstmest
Feed Hoya kerrii with a balanced liquid fertilizer diluted to half strength every 4-6 weeks during the growing season. Reduce feeding during the winter months when the plant's growth slows down.Verpotten
Repot Hoya kerrii every 2-3 years or when it outgrows its pot. Choose a pot that is slightly larger than the current one and refresh the soil mix. Handle the roots gently to avoid damage.Voortplanting
Propagate Hoya kerrii through stem cuttings. Take a cutting with at least one node and a few leaves, and place it in water or a well-draining soil mix. Keep the cutting in a warm, humid environment until roots develop.Snoeien
Prune Hoya kerrii to maintain its shape and encourage bushier growth. Remove any dead or yellowing leaves and trim back long vines. Pruning can be done throughout the year as needed.Toxiciteit
