Hoya Krimson Queen is a stunning variegated form of Hoya carnosa — one of the most popular and enduring houseplants in the world. What sets Krimson Queen apart is its striking variegation pattern: creamy white to pink margins frame the outside of each leaf, with the green center creating a bold, two-tone effect. The pink tones are most vivid on new growth, gradually settling to cream as the leaf matures.
A common point of confusion: Krimson Queen is often mixed up with Hoya Krimson Princess. The key difference is location of variegation — Queen has it on the leaf margins (outside), Princess has it in the center. Both are beautiful; this is the Queen.
Like all Hoyas, Krimson Queen is a rewarding long-term plant. Given enough light and time, it produces clusters of star-shaped, fragrant flowers — a genuine treat for patient growers. It trails and vines beautifully in a hanging basket or can be trained up a trellis.
Care guide: Bright indirect light is key — it maintains the variegation and encourages blooming. Plant in a well-draining mix; Hoyas prefer to dry out between waterings and do not tolerate sitting in excess water. Average household humidity is fine. A forgiving, long-lived plant that gets better with age.
Additional Hoya information:
Hoya, commonly referred to as "Wax Plant" is a genus consisting of over 500 species.
Hoyas are widely cultivated for their aromatic blooms and unique foliage.
They are native to tropical and subtropical areas all around the world. They can be found in Latin America, Asia, Australia, etc.
Mostly epiphytic, you'll find Hoyas love to climb trees in their natural habitats.
Hoyas have a large range of foliage shapes and textures. They can be found with elongated, deeply veined leaves to thin, narrow leaves and everything in between.
Most Hoya plants can be considered easy to care for. Here at Canopy Plant Co., we only ship the healthiest Hoyas from our Apopka greenhouse.

This little plant came to me healthy and I like it more than I thought I might. I’m excited to watch it grow and to see it develop more pink.
This is my first Hoya and my first plant from canopy plant company I couldn’t of been more impressed and happy with my new plant it is so healthy and came well packaged I can not wait to place my next order
My first hoya, she's so beautiful. I love unboxing a cute little healthy plant.
Omg… love at first sight..!! The photos do nothing for this beauty.. I want at least 10 more..
Beautiful plant! Looks great in my hanging planter and already pushing new growth
I’ve already placed a second order. My plants were so well packaged that they arrived in perfect condition even on a cold, snowy day.
I am especially in love with my first Hoya. The Krimson queen is adorable in its little hanging out and already has some pink in the leaves with lots of new growth visible.
Love the leaves on this plant. It’s has great variegation.
I received a perfect little plant. It’s very pretty right out the box.
Arrived in perfect condition, an absolutely stunning plant
I bought a Hoya carnosa and it is the prettiest plant I have ever gotten. It is very healthy and wasn't damaged at all during shipping. Thank you so much!! I will definitely shop here again.
Nice size and healthy
Both plants arrived in great condition and packaged very well. So pleased to have these Hoya’s in my collection. Will definitely be ordering from Canopy Plant Co. again..thank you!
Yea, I was pleasantly surprised at the size, the health, and most of all the amount of new growing leaves on this plant. She is doing good so far. I usually like to wait to see if my ordered plants continue to stay healthy and I believe I can say I will not be having any future problems. I will put in another order within a few weeks and provide an pictures of before (time of arrival) and (almost) 3 weeks later.
My first Hoya and I’m so in love! Shipping was amazing and fast, thank you!!!!
