# Looking for information on what I'm doing wrong?! I've brought this…

Looking for information on what I'm doing wrong?! I've brought this hoya home from my office about 3 years ago now she jusr keeps getting bigger but wont bloom. Lots of new growth all over and litte nodes. It is about 35" from a window that gets morning sun.

In my experience, hoya carnosas can be quite tricky to get to bloom in comparison with other hoyas. I would put it in brighter light (mine is in a south window but I’m in a northern location) and use orchid spray fertilizer.

I got several varieties to bloom last summer by putting them outside on a north east location to get direct morning light. They didn’t bloom the year before when they were 1-2 ft inside the window. Direct morning sun had to touch the plants. Try moving it to the window so sun can shine on it in the mornings. A grow light 12 hours/day is the alternative. Humidity above 50% and regular fertilizer helped mine.
