☀️ Light: The 'Krimson Princess' prefers bright, indirect light. An east or west-facing window where the sun's rays are filtered through curtains is ideal. Direct sunlight can scorch the leaves, while too little light may reduce the vibrancy of its variegation.
💧 Watering: Water when the top inch of soil feels dry to the touch. Hoya Carnosa 'Krimson Princess' does not like to be over-watered. Ensure the pot has good drainage to avoid soggy soil, which can lead to root rot.
🌧️ Humidity: This plant enjoys a humid environment, typical of its tropical origins. Aim for a humidity level around 40-60%. You can increase humidity with a pebble tray, humidifier, or by placing it in a naturally humid room like the bathroom.
🌡️ Temperature: Keep your ‘Krimson Princess‘ in a warm environment, ideally between 15°C and 26°C (60°F - 80°F). Avoid placing it in drafty areas or near air conditioning vents.
💊 Feeding: Fertilize your 'Krimson Princess' every 4-6 weeks during the growing season (spring to summer) with a diluted, balanced, liquid fertilizer. Reduce feeding in the fall and winter when growth slows.
✂️ Pruning: Pruning is not strictly necessary but can be done to shape the plant or encourage bushier growth. Always use clean, sharp scissors or pruners to avoid damaging the plant.
🪴 Repotting: Repot every 2-3 years or when the plant becomes root-bound. Choose a pot only slightly larger than the current one to prevent over-watering. Use a well-draining potting mix suitable for epiphytes.
🌸 Flowering: The 'Krimson Princess' will produce beautiful clusters of star-shaped flowers under the right conditions. To encourage blooming, provide bright, indirect light and slightly cooler temperatures during the night.
