Light
Now that you know that Hoya Lacunosa is a tree-hugger and grows on the bark of trees in forests, you can imagine that it must be well lit out there with filtered sunlight streaming through a canopy of trees.

The perfect Hoya Lacunosa care (or any house plant for that matter) is to mimic the lighting conditions of its natural habitat as much as you can.

This is how you get lush growth and good flowering. Hanging your basket to the bough of a tree in your garden can be a good idea except that the leaves get a bit dusty.

If your porch is well-lit go for it. Winter months are tricky for this fleshy vine.

You can grow Hoya Lacunosa indoors under artificial lights. My “Missy Hoya” hangs by a window on the south side of the house and gets plenty of indirect light.

You can grow Hoya Lacunosa in medium light conditions; just that it doesn’t bloom too well.

Like any tropical flowering plant, the more light it gets, the more flowers it will produce. And who wouldn’t want that cinnamon fragrance of the flowers wafting around it?



Watering
As with all aspects of Hoya Lacunosa care, there are several opinions out there when it comes watering.

Some say it needs moisture all the time. Others claim that it is moderately drought tolerant.

I am going to reiterate my rule-of-thumb in all matters of plant care. We simply need to understand what moisture conditions the plant gets in its original habitat.
