Care Notes: Hoya carnosa ‘Krimson Queen’ is a beautiful cultivar of the classic Hoya carnosa. This plant is a tropical epiphyte that will thrive in a well-draining soil mix with medium to high humidity. The outer edges of the leaves are variegated, so the plant will enjoy more light than the original green carnosa. If the plant produces a peduncle and flowers, it will reflower from that same peduncle, so do not cut it off after the flowers are done blooming.

Shipping Notes: Generous LIVE ARRIVAL GUARANTEE offered.

As good practice, Josh's Frogs recommends washing all plants thoroughly, removing as much soil as possible with dechlorinated water before placing them in their final home. Live plants may vary in color, size, and appearance.

ALL PLANTS ARE SHIPPED IN POTS WITH SOIL OR OTHER MEDIA UNLESS IT IS DEEMED NECESSARY TO SHIP BARE ROOT.

Standard pot sizes for Josh's Frogs plants typically range from 1.25-3.5 inches.
