Hoya ‘Krinkle 8’ is a captivating textured cultivar treasured for its glossy, narrow leaves that feature deep undulating (krinkled) edges. This vine exhibits a lush, trailing growth habit that thrives in hanging baskets, mounted displays, or terrariums, offering visual depth and elegance.
🌸 Flowers
Blooms in round clusters (umbels) of reflexed star-shaped blossoms, each about 8–12 mm wide.
Petals are creamy-white to pale rose, surrounding a contrasting pink-to-red corona that adds vibrant focal points.
Flower clusters emit a light, sweet scent and often persist for over a week in ideal conditions.
Mature vines typically rebloom from the same flower stems—avoid removing old peduncles for continuous flowering.
🌞 Care Guide
| Requirement | Recommendation |
|---|---|
| Light | Bright, indirect light; gentle morning or afternoon sun enhances foliage texture and supports blooming. |
| Watering | Allow the top 2–3 cm of soil to dry between waterings—prevent soggy conditions. |
| Soil | Prefers a chunky, fast-draining mix (orchid bark, perlite, coco coir). |
| Humidity | Thrives in 50–70% humidity, but adapts to average indoor environments. |
| Temperature | Best kept between 16–28 °C (60–82 °F)—keep away from cold drafts. |
