Beautiful shade of green! For these type of hoyas i would highly recommend to water them once a month! Especially during the cold seasons! Perhaps in the summer every 2-3weeks.

Water when soil is dry. Doesn’t have to be bone dry, but they don’t like to sit in water. Since it’s in a clear pot that should make it easier to tell when the soil has dried through. No direct sun or you might burn the leaves. Mines in a south facing window with a sheer curtain so it does burn but still gets bright light. I hope this helps 🤗
