Care Tips:

• Light: Place the plant in bright, indirect light. While it can tolerate some direct sunlight, prolonged exposure may scorch the leaves.

• Watering: Allow the soil to dry out between waterings. Overwatering can lead to root rot, so it's essential to ensure proper drainage.

• Temperature & Humidity: Hoya australis 'Lisa' thrives in temperatures between 60°F and 85°F. It prefers moderate to high humidity levels but can adapt to average household conditions.

• Soil: Use a well-draining potting mix, such as one formulated for succulents or cacti, to prevent waterlogging.

• Fertilization: Feed the plant with a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer every 4–6 weeks during the growing season (spring and summer). Reduce feeding in the fall and winter when the plant's growth slows down.
