Complete Care Guide for Hoya Burtoniae

Hoya Burtoniae, known for its unique leaf shape and cascading growth, is a delightful addition to any plant collection. Ensure the optimal health and beauty of your Hoya Burtoniae with the following comprehensive care guide:

Light:

• Well-Draining Mix: Plant Hoya Burtoniae in a well-draining potting mix. A combination of orchid bark, perlite, and regular potting soil provides the required aeration and drainage.

Temperature:

• Warm Temperatures: Maintain a warm environment for Hoya Burtoniae, with temperatures between 60-80°F (15-27°C). Protect it from drafts and cold conditions, as it is sensitive to low temperatures.

Pests and Diseases:

• Monitor for Pests: Regularly check Hoya Burtoniae for common pests such as mealybugs and spider mites. Treat any infestations promptly using insecticidal soap or neem oil.

Support:

Propagation:

• Stem Cuttings: Propagate Hoya Burtoniae through stem cuttings. Take healthy cuttings with at least two leaves and root them in a well-draining medium. Rooting hormone can be used to encourage root development.
