Hoya ‘Misty Morning’

Description

Hoya lacunosa ‘Misty Morning’ is a wax vine with silvery, seafoam green leaves, reminiscent of the ocean on a foggy day. This charming plant sends out cascades of petite, almond-shaped leaves that exhibit occasional specks of darker green. Also known as the “Cinnamon Hoya”, when this plant blooms, it has umbels of spicy-scented, cream-colored blooms. ‘Misty Morning’ will awaken your senses with both its looks and sweet fragrance.

• For optimal performance, keep your Hoya at 60-85°F (15-29°C).
• Hoyas perform best in bright, indirect light or filtered sunlight. They will tolerate lower light conditions, but will not grow as vigorously or show their colors as vibrantly. Some early morning or late evening sunlight may be tolerated and cause some sought-after “blushing” to appear, but monitor your Hoya for leaf burning if it is in direct sun.
• Hoyas are generally adaptable to ambient household humidity, but they do appreciate higher humidity. You can help get humidity above 60% by using a humidifier, misting your Hoya, or keeping it on a pebble tray.
• Hoyas prefer to dry out in between waterings. As such, water your Hoya thoroughly when the top 1-2 inches of soil feels dry. They can tolerate periods of drought, and overwatering them will cause more harm than underwatering.
