If you’re looking for a houseplant that is easy to care for and absolutely beautiful, then the Hoya Carnosa Krimson Princess is the plant for you.
Hoya Carnosa, the Krimson Princess of the wax plant family, is a sought after plant that’s making an elegant return to the limelight. As one of the lowest-maintenance and most easy care hoya varieties, we think the Krimson Princess would be a gorgeous and rewarding addition to your indoor gardening journey. Plus, you will no doubt enjoy the clusters of pale pink chocolate-scented flowers.
Hoya Krimson Princess Plant care
Light: The Krimson Princess grows best in a well-lit position indoors with plenty of bright and indirect sunlight. If it is placed in a spot that is too shady it will experience slower rates of growth.
Soil: Ideally an airy, lightweight and chunky potting mix. Tired of mixing your own? Try our tried and tested Aroid & Hoya Potting Mix!
Watering: This plant prefers to be dry down thoroughly in between waterings. Like most Hoya varieties, they appreciate higher levels of humidity.
Climate: The Krimson Princess withstands regular household temperatures but doesn't respond well to abnormally low indoor temperatures.
Feeding: Use a balanced fertiliser such as GT Foliage Focus or GT Complete Focus 1-2 times a month throughout the growing season in Spring and Summer.
