Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Hoya globulosa ‘Pink’ has long twining vines displaying waxy green elliptic leaves. Occasional large clusters of night fragrant, waxy, pink star flowers appear. Plants rebloom multiple times on the same stem spur, so do not remove. Hoyas are an easy care plant for hanging baskets indoor or out. This evergreen tropical vine actively grows in the warm temperatures of late Spring to Fall. Prefers a warm, humid environment with bright indirect light. Fertilize, mist and water regularly, reducing water in winter. Allow the soil to dry out between watering. Keep your Hoya above 55°F, or its growth might be stunted.
