CARE TIPS:

Light: Hoya wayetii will grow best in bright indirect light. It can be grown in medium indirect light but it will not flower.

Water: Allow your Hoya wayetii to go almost completely dry in-between watering. While Hoya wayetii, and Hoya in general, do not like to have constantly moist soil it's also important not to allow your Hoya wayetii to sit completely dry for too long either, as this may lead to the roots dying off. A good way to ensure proper watering and healthy roots is to grow your Hoya wayetii in a chunky, well draining soil mix!
