How to grow Hoya pubicalyx 'Red Button' in NZ

Hoya pubicalyx 'Red Button' grows best indoors in a warm, frost-free location with bright, indirect light. Use a free-draining potting mix, ideally one containing orchid bark and perlite, to prevent root rot. Water when the top few centimetres of soil feel dry, and reduce watering in winter. Maintain moderate humidity, and feed monthly during spring and summer with a diluted liquid fertiliser. Keep the plant slightly root-bound and avoid removing flower spurs to encourage repeat flowering. Ideal for trailing or climbing displays.

Hoya 'Red Button' care tips

Place in bright, indirect light to support healthy growth and flowering. Use a well-draining mix with added orchid bark or perlite. Water when the top of the soil feels dry, and reduce watering in winter. Maintain moderate humidity and mist occasionally in dry conditions. Feed monthly during spring and summer with a diluted liquid fertiliser. Keep the plant slightly root-bound, and leave flower spurs intact, as blooms often return to the same points.
