The Krinkle 8 is a cultivator in the carnosa family, known for the distinct wrinkling in the leaves. It has thick waxy leaves that can be described as a halfway point between the normal carnosa and the imfamous carnosa compacta (hindu rope). Under ideal conditions this plant will produce clusters of chocolate smelling flowers.
 
All cuttings will be cut fresh right before being shipped.
They will be carefully packaged and shipped USPS priority. Please do your research on propagation prior to purchase.
 
Please be advised that every plant is a little different in its likes and dislikes, this is partially because all home environments are different. These are all just the general care instructions for these plants and you may have to make slight changes in order to fit your plant and your home.
 
Light: Bright indirect light is recommended, generally West and/or East facing windows are ideal 
 
Watering: Hoya’s in general need to dry out fairly well before watering, the “rule of thumb” is to stick your finger into the soil and water when the top 1”-2” are dry. Your watering cycle will change based on your homes humidity level and the plants natural growing cycle, during the spring and summer while the plant is actively growing it will need to be watered more often. 
 
Repotting: Hoya’s do not generally need to be repotted, they like to be semi-root bound, if you do choose to repot please wait a few weeks after receiving to allow your plant to acclimate to its new environment, and do not increase the pot size by more then one size.
The exception is when repotting from a 2" starter pot up to a 4" pot, generally I will move from a 2" pot when the plant starts to tip its self over. 
 
 
Humidity: Typical home humidity is usually acceptable, but every home is different. In dry climates you may find that your plant appreciates occasional misting.
 
Fertilizing: Monthly fertilizing during growing season with a half strength general purpose fertilizer.
 
If you have any issues with your order please reach out within the first 48 hours with pictures and descriptions of the plant(s). Please note, while we make every effort to package your plants with care it is not unusual to have a few damaged leaves during the shipping process, as these are live plants. Some plants are less tolerant of the stress of shipping than others, and may arrive looking limp, but they should recover quickly with proper care and time to acclimate to your home.
