Light: Supply this Hoya with lots of bright indirect light, and some direct light; however, you will need to keep an eye on her in really hot weather. The more light you give her, the more likely she will bloom. 

Waterimg: Just like many other species of Hoya, The Hoya Krohniana is a plant that will not do well if it's overwatered. Overwatering this plant can cause a rapid decline that can eventually kill the plant. It is best if you allow this plant to dry out between waterings and then water it thoroughly. 

Humidity: The ideal humidity for the Hoya Krohniana Eskimo is between 60% and 80%. Again, this stems from its being a native of the Philippines.
