☀️ Light Requirements: Prefers bright, indirect light. Can tolerate some direct sunlight, especially in the morning, but avoid strong midday sun to prevent leaf burn.
💧 Watering: Allow the soil to dry out partially between waterings. Hoya Globulosa prefers to be on the drier side rather than overwatered, to prevent root rot. Water less frequently in winter.
🌧️ Humidity: Enjoys high humidity levels. If your indoor air is dry, consider using a humidifier, misting the plant regularly, or placing it on a pebble tray.
🌡️ Temperature: Thrives in warm conditions, ideally between 15°C and 27°C. Avoid cold drafts and temperatures below 10°C.
💊 Feeding: Fertilize every 2-3 weeks during the growing season (spring and summer) with a diluted, balanced fertilizer. Reduce feeding in the fall and winter.
✂️ Pruning: Minimal pruning is needed. Trim as necessary to control the plant's size or shape. Avoid cutting off the peduncles (flower stalks), as Hoya flowers rebloom on old spurs.
🌸 Flowering: Hoya Globulosa is known for its beautiful and fragrant flowers. To encourage blooming, provide adequate light and slightly reduce watering in the cooler months.
🪴 Repotting: Repot every 2-3 years, or when the plant becomes root-bound. Spring or early summer is the best time for repotting.
🪲 Pest Control: Regularly inspect for pests such as mealybugs, spider mites, and aphids. Treat any infestations with insecticidal soap or neem oil.
