About Hoya kalimantan
With over 500 species and even more cultivars, there's a Hoya out there for everyone! They're native to Southeast Asia and their common name, waxplant, refers to their thick, waxy leaves which help them retain water in the heat. They're excellent climbers and will take off if you give them a trellis to grow on. Their other-worldly, star-shaped flowers are often fragrant and come in brilliant shades of red, pink, yellow, and more!

How to fertilize Hoya kalimantan

Most potting soils come with ample nutrients which plants use to produce new growth.
By the time your plant has depleted the nutrients in its soil it’s likely grown enough to need a larger pot anyway.
To replenish this plant's nutrients, repot your Hoya kalimantan after it doubles in size or once a year—whichever comes first.

Long time! It's been quite a while since I posted, I do, however check on #Greggers and the posts daily. I was very ill for a while with the flu and pneumonia, sadly I lost a few plants (a couple of hoyas which broke my heart 💔) as I was unable to care for them. It took a while to catch up on planty care but my planty babies seem to be doing now and lots of new growth. So last week I decided to reward myself with a new hoya from #plantproper. Oh my what a gorgeous Hoya Enduaensis. Plant proper never ceases to provide beautiful plants. #plantproperfanclub #happyplants #plantsmakepeoplehappy #plantaddict #crazyplantlady #hoya #hoyahangout #hoyaheads #sarahsgrove

Help! There is spotting on the underside of the base leaf of my Hoya. Overwatering maybe? It’s consistently growing and has always loved the soil to be kept moist. The soil dries in just a few days with a thourogh watering. I haven’t used nutrients in a couple months as the foliage has been growing in wonderfully without. #Hoya #hoyacrismonqueen
