Hoya incurvula Ø7cm

Hoya incurvula is a rare Sulawesi species with fragrant pink star-shaped flowers and small succulent leaves. Compact habit, ideal for limited spaces and exotic plant collections. Care instructions Light ideal for Hoya incurvula is bright indirect . A spot near an east or west-facing window where the plant receives a few hours of filtered sun is perfect. Avoid intense direct sunlight, which can cause leaf discoloration or burns. Conversely, too dim lighting will delay flowering and produce elongated stems with large internodes, losing the characteristic compact appearance. Watering works best with a simple balance. Allow the substrate to partially dry between waterings - the first 2-3 centimeters should be dry before adding water. In summer, watering is usually done once a week, while winter frequency decreases significantly. The slightly succulent leaves store water, giving the plant good tolerance to short drought periods, so it simply prefers a substrate that drains freely rather than staying soggy. Use room-temperature water for optimal results. Temperature recommended is between 18°C and 28°C. The plant is happiest kept above 12°C, away from cold drafts and the direct reach of artificial heat sources. A slight nighttime cooling can stimulate flower bud formation. Ideal air humidity is 50-70%, though the plant adapts well to standard home conditions. Substrate should be well-draining and aerated. An equal-parts mix of pine bark, perlite, and sphagnum is ideal. The pot should not be too large - a compact pot stimulates flowering and prevents excessive moisture accumulation at root level.
