Hoya Hindu Rope

The Hoya 'Hindu Rope' (Hoya carnosa compacta) is a captivating indoor plant prized for its thick, waxy, twisted leaves that curl along trailing vines, creating a rope-like appearance. With time, it rewards you with clusters of fragrant, star-shaped pink flowers — a beautiful bonus to its already fascinating foliage.

This slow-growing, epiphytic plant is ideal for hanging baskets or decorative pots, where its vines can cascade freely.

Main Features:

• Thick, curly green leaves with a rope-like growth habit

• Occasional pink, sweetly scented flowers in mature plants

• Great for hanging baskets or elevated pots

• Low maintenance and drought-tolerant

• Excellent indoor air purifier

Care Tips:

• Light: Prefers bright, indirect light. Tolerates some direct morning sun.

• Watering: Let the soil dry out between waterings. Water sparingly in winter.

• Humidity: Enjoys moderate humidity but adapts well to indoor conditions.

• Soil: Use a well-draining mix; orchid or succulent blend works well.

• Fertilizer: Feed monthly during the growing season with a balanced, diluted liquid fertilizer.

• Growth: Slow-growing but long-lived. Avoid frequent repotting to encourage blooming.
