    Patience is the word for this one. Other than that it’s really been an easy going plant. 😄👏🏻

    I fertilize mine with osmocote in the soil every 6 months and have it under a grow light year round— except for summer when it’s on my covered front porch!

    Happy birthday! This was also my first Hoya earlier this year! I’ve found the following to be helpful: - I keep her a few feet away from a south window (I’m in the north east of the USA so if you are in different area that might be too much sun). - I use orchid spray to fertilize, I spray it onto the leaves and on top of the substrate before watering.

    Here’s a recipe for DIY Hoya mist. My Hoyas THRIVE since I’ve been using it. I used to buy orchid spray but hated the cost so I found this recipe. I’ve been using it for about 9 months. Every so often I post this screenshot of a prior post of mine from this app. Out of all 150 of my plants, Hoyas have quickly become my fav. They are sooooo fun to watch grow. 💚 Good luck!! 😊 I’ll find a ‘then’ and ‘now’ pic of my Lacunosa. The difference is amazing…..partly because of the Hoya mist.
