Hoya Care Guide (hi Roos! haha, no one really looks at my website right now, so i can do this while the website still has early access LOL)

Hoya plants are known for their stunning flowers and low-maintenance care. Let's dive into what makes them special.

------------------------------------

FLOWERS:
Hoya plants produce clusters of star-shaped flowers that are highly fragrant, especially at night. These blooms come in a lot of colors, from white and pink to purple and red. The flowers can last for several days to a few weeks, depending on the species and growing conditions. But watch out! The flowers can leak fluids, so keep a paper towel under the flower to prevent staining your floor/furniture.

------------------------------------

WATERING:
When it comes to watering Hoya plants, it's all about balance. Overwatering can lead to root rot, while underwatering can cause the leaves to drop. Water your Hoya plant when the top inch of soil feels dry to the touch. Reduce watering in the winter months when the plant is dormant.

------------------------------------

LIGHT REQUIREMENTS:
Hoya plants prefer bright, indirect light but can tolerate some direct sunlight. However, direct sunlight can cause the leaves to become scorched. East- or west-facing windows are ideal for Hoya plants. If you're growing Hoya in a low-light area, it may not produce as many flowers.

------------------------------------

PROPAGATION:
Propagating Hoya plants is relatively easy. You can use stem cuttings, division, or layering. Take 4-6 inch stem cuttings in the spring or summer, remove lower leaves, and plant them in a well-draining potting mix. Keep the soil moist and warm until roots develop.

------------------------------------

MEDIUMS:
Hoya plants prefer well-draining potting mixes to prevent waterlogged soil. A mix of peat moss, perlite, and orchid bark can provide the right balance of moisture and aeration. You can also add some compost to promote healthy growth. Repot your Hoya plant every 2-3 years to refresh the potting mix and provide a larger pot if necessary.
