Hoya Latifolia Rangsan Care Tips:

1. Light:

Prefers bright, indirect light to partial shade. Direct sunlight should be avoided to prevent leaf scorching.

2. Soil:

Use a well-draining potting mix with components such as orchid bark, perlite, and regular potting soil. Do not use peat moss, as it can retain too much moisture, leading to root rot.

3. Watering:

Water when the top 75% of soil feels dry. Allow the soil to dry between waterings, as this Hoya prefers to avoid overwatering. Ensure the pot has drainage to prevent waterlogging.

4. Humidity:

Hoya Latifolia 'Rangsan' enjoys high humidity but can tolerate average household levels. To increase humidity, consider placing the plant near a humidifier or using a pebble tray.

5. Temperature:

Ideal temperatures are between 65-80°F (18-27°C). Keep it away from cold drafts and temperatures below 50°F (10°C).

6. Fertilization:

Feed with a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer every 4-6 weeks during the growing season (spring and summer). Reduce feeding during the fall and winter when the plant's growth slows.

7. Pruning:

Prune lightly to maintain shape and encourage fuller growth. Remove any dead or yellowing leaves as necessary.

8. Propagation:

Propagate using stem cuttings placed in water or directly into well-draining potting mix. Cuttings should root within a few weeks in a warm, humid environment.

9. Flowering:

Given proper care, Hoya Latifolia 'Rangsan' will reward you with beautiful, fragrant flowers. Patience is needed, as this variety can take time to bloom, but the results are stunning.
