Plant Details:

• Botanical Name: Hoya carnosa 'Krimson Princess'
• Common Names: Krimson Princess Hoya, Wax Plant
• Mature Height: Vines can grow up to 6-8 feet (with support)
• Mature Width: 2-3 feet spread
• Sun Exposure: Bright, indirect light (ideal for maintaining vibrant leaf color and promoting blooms)
• Watering: Allow the top 1-2 inches of soil to dry between waterings. Overwatering can lead to root rot, so ensure the pot has good drainage.
• Humidity: Prefers moderate humidity but can tolerate standard indoor levels. Increase humidity for optimal growth with misting or a humidifier.
• Temperature: Thrives in warm environments (60-85°F or 16-29°C). Avoid cold drafts and sudden temperature changes.

Care Tips for the Best Results:

• Light: Place your Hoya 'Krimson Princess' in bright, indirect light for optimal leaf color and to encourage flowering. It can tolerate some lower light, but too little will cause the variegation to fade.
• Watering: Water your plant thoroughly when the top inch of soil feels dry. Allow excess water to drain out, and never let the plant sit in water to avoid root rot. Reduce watering during the winter months when growth slows.
• Feeding: Feed with a balanced liquid fertilizer during the growing season (spring and summer) to encourage healthy growth and vibrant blooms. Reduce feeding during the fall and winter months.
• Pruning: Prune to control the size of your plant or to encourage more branching. Snip just above a node to encourage new growth.
• Blooming: The Hoya 'Krimson Princess' will reward you with clusters of star-shaped, white or pale pink flowers, often with a soft, sweet fragrance. The blooms appear when the plant is happy and well-established, usually during the warmer months.
