got a new plant :) just a question, (Hoya kerrii btw) does it like to be humid? I have misting spray I use on my philodendron and I’d like to know if it like to be misted too.

the kerrii doesn’t normally require above 60%. that’s what my room holds steady at anyways. just be aware, if that is only a leaf cutting, it will not grow and will only root. you must have a part of the stem along with it, for a chance it will produce a new growth point and continue to grow again. the kerrii is the only hoya i’ve ever heard to do this unfortunately.

I don’t think hoya appreciate mist. They like to dry between watering to prevent rot

Yes no added humidity. I have one and it sits as such forever. Supposed to be a heart gift.

thank you all ! I’ll make sure to keep it away from the plants I mist but still give it the care the others get.
