☀️ Light: The 'Shooting Star' prefers bright, indirect light. An east or west-facing window that provides gentle morning or late afternoon sun is ideal. Avoid direct midday sunlight, which can scorch its leaves.
💧 Watering: Water when the top inch of soil feels dry. Hoya Multiflora enjoys consistent moisture but is susceptible to over-watering. Ensure your pot has excellent drainage to prevent root rot. Reduce watering in the winter when the plant's growth slows.
🌧️ Humidity: This plant benefits from high humidity, typical of its tropical origins. Aim for around 60% humidity. You can increase humidity with a humidifier, misting, or placing the plant on a pebble tray filled with water.
🌡️ Temperature: Keep your 'Shooting Star' in a warm environment, ideally between 15°C and 26°C (60°F - 80°F). It is sensitive to cold drafts and temperatures below 10°C (50°F), so place it away from drafty windows and doors during the cooler months.
💊 Feeding: Fertilize every 4-6 weeks during the growing season (spring through summer) with a half-strength, balanced, liquid fertilizer. Pause feeding in the fall and winter.
✂️ Pruning: Pruning is not necessary for flower production but can be done to maintain shape or remove any unhealthy growth. Use clean, sharp scissors or pruners to make cuts just above a node or leaf junction.
🪴 Repotting: Repot in the spring every 2-3 years, or when the plant becomes root-bound. Choose a pot that is slightly larger than the current one and use a well-draining potting mix.
🌸 Flowering: The 'Shooting Star' is known for its unique flowers that bloom from spring to summer. Providing the right light conditions and reducing watering slightly after the blooming period can help encourage more flowers.
