Hanging - Hoya Carnosa

Hoya Carnosa – Wax Plant 🌿🌸

Hoya Carnosa is a classic and beloved houseplant known for its thick, glossy leaves and clusters of star-shaped, pink-scented flowers. It's a resilient trailing or climbing plant that's easy to care for and thrives with minimal fuss.

Key Features:

✔ Glossy, succulent-like foliage on trailing vines
✔ Produces sweetly fragrant, waxy pink flowers in mature plants
✔ Excellent in hanging baskets or trained to climb
✔ Leaves may develop a purple tinge in strong light
✔ Drought-tolerant and long-lived with the right care

Care Instructions:

• Light: Prefers bright, indirect light – can tolerate some direct sun

• Watering: Allow soil to dry out between waterings; avoid soggy roots

• Humidity: Handles average indoor humidity well; higher humidity encourages flowering

• Soil: Use a well-aerated, free-draining mix (e.g., orchid bark + compost + perlite)

• Feeding: Feed monthly in growing season with a balanced liquid fertiliser

🌸 Tip: Don’t cut off the flower stalks after blooming – Hoyas often rebloom from the same spot!
