Hoya Rotundiflora is an epiphytic plant that belongs to the plant family, “ Apocynaceae .”. This plant originates from Thailand and is considered to be a veiny plant. This Thai native can get about 2 meters long on maturity. It has thin dangling stems with numerous leaves. Small dark-green semi-succulent leaves in rectangular shapes grow in an alternate pattern along the vine.
When the weather is humid and sunny, then the growing season has arrived, and you should water your plant freely. In winter, you should avoid watering your plant too often as the soil does not dry up as fast as it does in summer. Hoya Rotundiflora stores water in its succulent leaves, so even if you forget to water it for some days, then it is not an issue.
Hoya Rotundiflora likes to be fertilized occasionally. The best fertilizer to use is one that is balanced (20-20-20) and is soluble in water. Fertilize your plant with the balanced fertilizer once every two weeks until it starts to grow flowers. Once your Hoya Rotundiflora starts to bloom, then use a fertilizer that has high nitrogen. Hoya Rotundiflora flowers need fertilizers that are high in potassium (k) and nitrogen (N).
Hoya Rotundiflora has basic soil demands as they prefer soil that is well-drained and moist. You can use any simple potting mixture for this plant; just make sure to provide the plant with proper fertilization. Keep the soil PH range between mildly acidic (6.1 to 6.5) to neutral (6.6 to 7.5).
Use ceramic pots that are porous which means your plants are less likely to experience root rot from overwatering.
