The Hoya compacta, commonly known as ‘Hindu Rope,’ is a captivating tropical vine native to Southeast Asia. Renowned for its thick, curled, waxy leaves that resemble twisted ropes, this plant adds an exotic and sculptural element to any indoor space. As a houseplant, it thrives in bright, indirect light and prefers well-draining soil to prevent root rot. Water moderately, allowing the top inch of soil to dry out between watering. High humidity and warm temperatures enhance its growth and support its occasional fragrant, star-shaped flowers. The Hoya compacta ‘Hindu Rope’ is an excellent choice for collectors seeking a distinctive and low-maintenance tropical vine.
