This tropical indoor plant often called a “Wax plant” due to its thick waxy leaves, is a classic because it lives forever, grows to be enormous, and creates beautiful, porcelain-like fragrant flower clusters (it’s also often called “Porcelain flower”). Hoyas are quiet pickier needing very bright, but indirect light, to thrive. Also enjoys heat and high humidity.
Never cut the long tendrils! Leaves and flower clusters develop from these. Propagate Hoya plants from stem cuttings or by air layering. Hoyas don’t mind being a bit root bound. Keep in the same pot for years, but remember to fertilize throughout spring and summer. All Hoyas need to be potted in planters with drainage. These plants are very sensitive to too much water, so be sure to use a well draining soil with plenty of pumice and/or perlite. It’s hard to predict when these plants will flower, as it occurs when the plants reach maturity. Reaching maturity on the growing conditions! But rumor has it that keeping your plant tightly root-bound (in a smaller than normal pot) will accelerate blossoming. Don’t down-pot your plant, though (take it from a big pot and place in a smaller pot) as that can shock your Hoya, a no-no in Hoya plant care.
- Dark green, large, almond-shaped leaves grow on long vines
- Creamy pink, ball flower clusters that hang down resembling an umbrella
- Blooms during warm months when mature
- Flowers have a light fragrance at night, in our opinion smells like chocolate.
