The Hoya, also known as the wax plant, is a tropical beauty with thick, glossy leaves and fragrant flowers. Whether climbing or trailing, it's loved for being both easy-going and stunning when in bloom!

Origin

Hoyas come from tropical forests in Asia and Australia, where they grow as epiphytes on trees or in rocky crevices.

Care

Light

Prefers bright, indirect light. A few hours of morning sun are fine, but avoid harsh midday rays.

Water

Let the soil dry out between waterings. Hoyas store moisture in their leaves and can handle a bit of drought.

Humidity

Average humidity is fine, but higher humidity can encourage flowering. Misting is optional, not essential.

Toxic?

Most Hoya species are considered non-toxic to humans and pets, but the sap can irritate sensitive skin. Best to handle with care.

With its sculptural leaves and delicate flowers, the Hoya is a beautiful and resilient plant to add to your collection!
