{"product_id":"hoya-royal-hawaiian","title":"Hoya Royal Hawaiian Purple","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eHoya\u003c\/em\u003e 'Royal Hawaiian Purple' is a striking cultivar prized for its deep, jewel-toned foliage and the characteristic waxy texture shared across the genus. Thick, succulent leaves emerge with rich purple-green undertones that intensify under bright indirect light, making each plant a living study in colour and form. A vigorous yet manageable grower, it trails or climbs gracefully — equally at home cascading from a hanging planter or trained along a trellis.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eLike all hoyas, this cultivar rewards patience: established plants produce clusters of star-shaped, sweetly fragrant flowers that emerge from persistent spurs. Never remove spent spurs — new blooms arise from the same points season after season.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eCare Guide\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eLight\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBright indirect light is ideal. An east- or west-facing window is perfect; a few hours of gentle morning sun will deepen the purple pigmentation in the leaves. Avoid harsh midday sun, which can bleach or scorch the foliage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWater\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAllow the potting mix to dry out almost completely between waterings. Hoyas are semi-succulent and highly susceptible to root rot if kept consistently moist. Water thoroughly, then allow excess to drain freely. Reduce frequency in winter when growth slows.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHumidity \u0026amp; Temperature\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eComfortable in typical household humidity (40–60%), though it appreciates a slightly more humid environment. Keep temperatures between 60–85°F (15–29°C). Protect from cold draughts and temperatures below 50°F (10°C).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSoil \u0026amp; Potting\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUse a well-draining, airy mix — a blend of perlite, orchid bark, and a small amount of quality potting soil works well. Choose a pot with drainage holes and avoid oversizing; hoyas tend to bloom more readily when slightly root-bound.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFertilising\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFeed monthly during the growing season (spring through summer) with a balanced liquid fertiliser diluted to half strength. Reduce or cease feeding in autumn and winter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003ePropagation\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEasily propagated from stem cuttings with at least one node. Allow the cut end to callous briefly before placing in water, sphagnum moss, or a well-draining mix. Roots typically develop within 3–6 weeks under warm, bright conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eToxicity\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGenerally considered non-toxic to humans and pets, though ingestion may cause mild digestive discomfort. As always, keep plants out of reach of young children and animals as a precaution.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Leaf and Reef","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47456611762347,"sku":null,"price":15.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0786\/5617\/6299\/files\/B7D3FA0C-36AF-4590-A872-3830098A7C55.jpg?v=1786662998","url":"https:\/\/leafandreefplants.com\/products\/hoya-royal-hawaiian","provider":"Leaf and Reef","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
