Hoya Retusa
$16.99Fleur & Co
Even though Hoyas do offer an incredible variety of plant looks, the Hoya Retusa still stands out with its flat, narrow foliage that barely looks like leaves.These plants also flower like most Hoyas, bearing the particularity of it flowering in singles instead of bunches like its cousins. The flowers have a classic star-shaped creamy and pink look with a lemon-like scent. Plant Size Small: 4 inch standard nursery pot Light Hoya Retusa likes bright indirect light but will do well in lower light conditions. Most importantly avoid bright direct sunlight that will cause sunburns. A south or west-facing window will both be fine, but try to put it farther away from a window if you get a lot of light coming from it.When you are growing it in a hanging basket make sure the sun reaches the top of the plant too. Water You should water your Hoya Retusa when the top three to four inches of soil is completely dry. If you stick your finger in the soil it should come out clean and dry.When in doubt hold off for one more day as it is easier to overwater than underwater, especially with Hoyas and especially if you like loving on your plants a little too much. Plant Specific Care Hoya Retusa likes lower temperatures- They dislike major fluctuations that might put them into shock, but they do flower best at temperatures around 50 degrees F (10 degrees Celsius) at night.For it to thrive you should achieve a consistent temperature somewhere between 50 and 80 degrees F (10-27 degrees Celsius) or else the plant will not do very well. Stunted growth and no blooms are a sign of temperatures being too high. Make sure your Hoya Retusa is placed far away from any drafts, air conditioners, radiators, and other sources of cold air or heat for the best results. Hoya Retusa also loves humidity but like most Hoyas, it will do well in regular 40% indoor humidity.If you do notice crispy leaf edges or browning, try increasing the humidity a little with regular fine misting, a humidity mat, or a humidifier. Pet-Friendly Plant Yes.
