Hoya Carnosa Compacta

  • Product Info

    The Hoya Carnosa Compacta, commonly known as the Hindu Rope Plant, is a slow-growing tropical succulent with thick, twisted, waxy leaves that curl and coil along trailing vines. It's prized for its unique foliage and fragrant, star-shaped, pinkish-white flowers that bloom in clusters. Native to Southeast Asia and Australia, this epiphytic plant is often grown in hanging baskets and adds an exotic, sculptural touch to any space.


  • Care guide:

    Light:
    Prefers bright, indirect light. Can tolerate some direct morning sun but should be protected from harsh afternoon rays to prevent leaf burn.

    Watering:
    Allow the top 2-3 cm of soil to dry out between waterings. Water thoroughly but avoid waterlogging. Reduce watering during winter when growth slows.

    Soil:
    Thrives in a well-draining, airy mix. A combination of orchid bark, perlite, and peat-based potting soil works well to promote healthy root growth.

  • Nursery Pot Size:

    6cm
