Hoya Carnosa Albo 'Krimson Queen'
This beloved variegated Hoya steals hearts with its waxy, oval leaves edged in creamy white or soft pink, contrasting against deep green centers. A vigorous grower, it vines beautifully in hanging baskets or climbs trellises, rewarding patience with fragrant star-shaped flower clusters (pink with red centers). Care Guide Light: Bright, indirect light (2–3 hours of gentle morning sun enhances variegation; direct sun may scorch pale edges).Water: Let soil dry almost completely between waterings (soak thoroughly, then drain—succulent-like leaves hate soggy roots!).Soil: Well-draining mix (cactus/succulent soil + perlite + orchid bark).Humidity: 40–60% (adapts to homes but blooms best with higher humidity).Temperature: 60–85°F (15–29°C); tolerates brief dips to 50°F (10°C).Growth: Moderate; trails or climbs to 3–6 feet indoors. Special Notes: Non-toxic (pet-safe!). Flower buds form on old peduncles—never cut spent blooms! Variegation may revert in low light—prune all-green shoots t
