Needing some advice for my Hoya Carnosa.

Does she need repotting? I have cats, so I’m a little leery of letting her drape down. Although I know how pretty she would look.

Thanks in advance 💛

Hoyas like being pot bound. I would not repot it at this stage.

Agreed

is it planted directly in the ceramic planter or in a nursery pot? hoyas prefer to dry out faster so if it’s planted right in the ceramic i would repot (even if it’s not rootbound) into the same size or smaller terracotta or plastic pot. be sure to choose a well draining mix if you choose to repot

Krimson Queens drape really well. Whether you repot or not, you can definitely let her hang.
