Care Instructions for Hoya Crimson Princess

Caring for your Hoya Crimson Princess is simple, making it a versatile option for any home or plant collection:

• Light Requirements: Thrives in bright, indirect light. For optimal variegation and growth, place it in a well-lit spot, avoiding direct sunlight.
• Watering: Water thoroughly when the top layer of soil has dried out. Ensure the plant is never left sitting in water, as this can lead to root rot. As an epiphyte, it prefers an airy, well-draining potting mix and dislikes staying wet for extended periods.
• Humidity and Temperature: Prefers moderate to high humidity and can thrive in average home conditions. The ideal temperature range is between 18°C and 26°C.
• Soil Type: Use a well-draining soil mix, such as a blend of orchid bark, perlite, and peat, to keep the roots healthy and promote strong growth. The plant's epiphytic nature means it thrives in a free-draining, airy environment.

The Hoya Crimson Princess is a vibrant, eye-catching addition to any plant collection or home decor. With its striking pink vines and variegated leaves, this plant is sure to stand out and add a splash of colour to your space.

We only ship plants on Mondays. Please order before 2pm on Sunday to ensure your plant will be sent the following Monday. Orders placed after this time MIGHT not be shipped untill the following week.

We only ship plants to non-quarantine states (sorry sorry WA, TAS and NT residents). Shipping of plants is capped at $18.00 per order. This includes the packing materials and labour times. We use recycled packing where possible to reduce our waste and keep cost down, but we ensure that all packing material is sturdy enough to resist damage during transit.

If no one is home to receive your order, the parcel will be left in a safe place. We will not request signature on delivery, as parcels sent back to the post office may not get picked up for days, therefore increasing the amount of stress placed on the plant(s) inside.

This plant can also be picked up from the Northern Wellbeing Centre; 113C miller st, Epping VIC. If you select this option at check-out, we will email you to organise a pick-up time.
