Hoya carnosa 'Compacta' Green – Hindu Rope Plant 🌿🌀

Hoya carnosa ‘Compacta’ Green, also known as the Hindu Rope Plant, is a truly unique trailing houseplant with thick, curled green leaves that form tight, rope-like vines. Its twisting, sculptural form makes it a conversation starter, and when mature, it can bloom with clusters of star-shaped, sweetly scented flowers.

Key Features:

✔ Thick, glossy green curled leaves along rope-like vines
✔ Trailing or climbing habit – perfect for hanging pots or trellises
✔ May produce wax-like pink flowers with a sweet scent in warm, bright conditions
Drought-tolerant and long-lived – ideal for hands-off plant lovers
✔ A sculptural favourite among Hoya and succulent collectors


Care Instructions:

  • Light: Prefers bright, indirect light – some morning or filtered sun helps

  • Watering: Water when the soil is completely dry – typically every 2–3 weeks

  • Humidity: Tolerates average indoor humidity – appreciates a light mist in dry rooms

  • Soil: Use a well-draining mix – cactus compost with added perlite or orchid bark works well

  • Feeding: Fertilise monthly during the growing season with a diluted houseplant or orchid feed

  • Temperature: Likes warmth – 18–26°C; protect from frost or cold draughts

  • Growth: Naturally slow-growing – minimal pruning needed unless shaping is desired

🌿 Tip: Don’t overwater! These thick, waxy leaves store moisture and are prone to rot if left in soggy soil.
