How to Care for hoya carnosa krimson queen and Hoya 'Krimson Princess'

If you're a fan of lush indoor foliage, hoya carnosa krimson queen and Hoya 'Krimson Princess' are must-haves. These Hoyas thrive in bright, indirect light and tolerate lower light, making them perfect for Kiwi homes. Allow the soil to dry out between waterings, as overwatering is the most common pitfall. Use a well-draining potting mix, such as one designed for epiphytes or adding perlite to standard mixes. Feed monthly with a weak liquid fertiliser during spring and summer for optimum growth and vibrant foliage.
