Adorn your home or office with the elegant Hoya carnosa 'Krimson Queen' (often called the Variegated Wax Plant). Renowned worldwide for its outer-variegated foliage, this classic houseplant features thick, succulent-like green leaves beautifully outlined in creamy-white and blushed with bright pink on new growth.
As a vining and trailing species, it cascades gracefully from hanging baskets, shelves, or plant stands, and can also be trained to climb small trellises. Under bright indirect light, it rewards plant owners with clusters of star-shaped, sweet-scented porcelain flowers. It is pet-friendly, drought-tolerant, and exceptionally easy to maintain in indoor setups.
Cream & Pink Variegation: Thick, glossy leaves framed by creamy outer margins with pink flushes.
Pet Friendly: 100% non-toxic and safe for homes with cats and dogs.
Drought Tolerant & Low Maintenance: Succulent-like leaves retain water, requiring minimal watering.
Light: Thrives in bright, indirect sunlight to keep its pink and cream variegation rich. Can tolerate mild morning sun, but avoid intense direct sun.
Watering: Allow the top 2 inches or most of the soil/medium to dry out completely between waterings. Succulent foliage stores water well, so avoid overwatering.
Soil / Potting Medium: Requires an airy, fast-draining chunky mix (coco chips, pine bark, perlite, and coarse potting mix).
Humidity & Temperature: Thrives in moderate to high humidity and warm temperatures ($20^\circ\text{C}$ to $32^\circ\text{C}$).
Fertilizer: Feed with a balanced liquid orchid/plant fertilizer once a month during spring and summer.
