4" Hoya Ropes

Hoya Rope (Hoya carnosa ‘Compacta’)
The Hoya Rope, also called Hindu Rope or Krinkle Kurl, is one of the most unique hoya varieties. Its thick, waxy leaves twist and curl along trailing vines, giving it a rope-like appearance that’s both unusual and striking. When mature, it can produce clusters of star-shaped, pink and fragrant flowers, making it a favorite among collectors.

Care Tips:
☀️ Light: Bright, indirect light encourages growth and blooms; tolerates some direct morning sun
💧 Water: Let soil dry out between waterings; prefers to stay on the drier side
🌫 Humidity: Thrives in moderate to high humidity, though it adapts to average household air
❄️ Temperature: Prefers warmth (65–85°F); protect from cold drafts
🐾 Pet Friendly: Yes (non-toxic to pets)

Fun Fact: The twisted leaves of Hoya Rope can occasionally show variegation, with cream or pink streaks, in the cultivar Hoya Rope Variegata. This makes them even rarer and more collectible. 🌿🌸
