Hoya Carnosa 'OG GREEN" LARGE BASKET

The Hoya carnosa 'OG Green' is a classic, foundational variety for any indoor garden. Known for its thick, succulent-like emerald leaves and trailing vines, this Hoya is a robust grower that eventually produces clusters of sweet-smelling, star-shaped flowers. This large basket size provides an immediate lush, tropical feel to your home.

Quick Care

Placement: Ideal for hanging baskets or trailing off shelves near a window.

Light: Bright, indirect light. Can tolerate medium light, but bright light encourages blooming.

Water: Allow the top 50-75% of soil to dry out between waterings; leaves will slightly pucker when thirsty.

Soil: Chunky, well-draining potting mix (orchid bark, perlite, and soil).

Temp: 60°F–85°F (15°C–29°C).

Humidity: Average home humidity is fine, but thrives in 50% or higher.

Feeding: Fertilize monthly during spring and summer with a balanced water-soluble fertilizer.

Tips

Avoid cutting the long leafless tendrils, as these will eventually grow leaves and flowers. Also, do not remove the flower spurs (peduncles) after blooms fade, as they will re-bloom from the same spot. For more tips follow us on Instagram @hiddenseedco
