💡 Care Tip: Hoya Tomataensis thrives best when you avoid overwatering at all costs—if you're unsure whether to water, it is always safer to wait a few more days! This Sulawesi native loves higher ambient humidity (60%+) and good air circulation. Keep it in a warm location protected from sudden cold drafts to see it truly flourish.
