How to Care for Hoya Krimson Princess
Be sure to read our planting instructions to ensure a healthy and happy plant for years to come!
When should I water my Variegated Hoya Krimson Princess Plants?
Since the Hoya plant has thick succulent leaves that hold water, they do not require frequent watering, in fact it can be detrimental to over water your Hoya Krimson Princess. We recommend only watering your plant when the top few inches of soil is dry (use your finger to test the moisture of the soil).
What soil should I pot my Hoya Krimson Princess Plant?
For the best results, pot your Hoya Krimson Princess plant in a potting mix that consists of peat moss, perlite, and vermiculite. These will not only provide the plant with the nutrients they need, they will also aid in the drainage needed to let the roots breath.
What are the light requirements for Hoya Krimson Princess Plant?
In order to achieve best results and maintain the pink and green variegation on the leaves, it is imperative to place your Hoya Krimson Princess in bright, indirect light. Ideally, place it next to an East-facing window.
What type of fertilizer does my Hoya Krimson Princess need?
While an all-purpose fertilizer will do just fine, we recommend using a fertilizer that is high in nitrogen. During the growing season of spring and summer, it is best to fertilize your Hoya once a month (when using a liquid formula).
