Characteristics
Hoya tricolor, also known as Hoya carnosa 'Tricolor' or Krimson Queen, is a stunning variegated vining houseplant prized for its beautiful foliage and fragrant flowers. The main attraction of Hoya tricolor is its captivating leaves. These waxy leaves, typical of Hoyas and earning them the nickname "wax plant", come in a beautiful tricolor combination. The edges are a soft cream, while the center showcases a delightful mix of bright green, pink, and sometimes even cream variegation. The amount of pink variegation can vary from leaf to leaf, adding to the plant's charm.
How to Care for Hoya
- Light: Bright indirect light is best, though the plant can tolerate moderate to low indirect light.
- Water Preferences: Allow the soil to dry significantly between watering. Prefers periodic deep watering over frequent shallow watering.
- Special Care/Notes: In the summer, fertilize with a high-phosphorus fertilizer to promote the fragrant flowers to emerge.
