Propagation
From Early Summer TO Late Summer
Remove a leaf with part of the stalk on it and put into a pot filled with a suitable compost or soil and keep moist. Place in a light place, not in direct sunlight and allow to root.
Flowering
From Late Spring TO Late Summer
Highly scented clusters of star shaped pale pink to dark pink flowers that appear wax like.
Planting Season
From Early Spring TO Late Winter
Re pot cuttings when they have rooted. Place in a sunny, light position, but shade from direct bright sun to avoid foliage scorch. In winter a minimum night temperature of not less than 10°C (50°F). Sharply draining, well aerated compost is essential for hoya to thrive. This can be made using one part by volume orchid bark, one part peat free compost and one part coarse perlite. Alternatively, use cactus compost but add some extra perlite.
