Hoya Carnosa Krimson Queen is one of the most sought-after Hoyas in the world, and it's easy to see why. Its waxy, variegated leaves emerge in shades of deep green edged with creamy white and blush pink — and the more indirect light it receives, the more vivid the pink becomes. It grows in trailing vines, making it stunning in a hanging basket or draped from a shelf.

Good for beginners? Yes, with one caveat. Hoyas are forgiving and slow to complain, but they like bright indirect light and to dry out between waterings. Avoid overwatering and you'll have this plant for years.

Safe for cats and dogs? Hoya Carnosa is considered non-toxic to pets, making it a great choice for pet-friendly homes.

Light needs: Bright indirect light brings out the best pink variegation. Low light will cause the plant to revert to mostly green. An east or west-facing window is ideal.

Care at a glance: Water when the soil is mostly dry. Do not let it sit in water. Feed monthly in spring and summer. Avoid repotting too often as Hoyas like to be slightly root bound.
