Hoya carnosa ‘Tricolor’ – Variegated Wax Plant
🌿🤍💗💚
The Hoya carnosa ‘Tricolor’ is a stunning trailing houseplant with thick, waxy leaves splashed with green, creamy-white, and pink variegation. Known as the Wax Plant, it’s loved for both its decorative foliage and its clusters of fragrant, star-shaped flowers that bloom under the right conditions.
Key Features:
✔ Gorgeous tri-coloured leaves with pink, cream, and green shades
✔ Clusters of fragrant, star-shaped blooms in mature plants
✔ Trailing or climbing habit – perfect for hanging baskets or trellises
✔ Drought-tolerant and easy to care for
✔ A long-living plant that grows more beautiful with age
Care Instructions:
-
Light: Prefers bright, indirect light – some direct morning sun enhances variegation
-
Watering: Allow soil to dry out between waterings; water sparingly in winter
-
Humidity: Adaptable but enjoys moderate humidity
-
Soil: Best in a well-draining mix with perlite and orchid bark
-
Feeding: Fertilise every 4–6 weeks in spring and summer with a houseplant feed
-
Temperature: Thrives in 16–26°C; avoid cold drafts
-
Growth: Trails up to 1–2 m indoors with time
🌿 Tip: Keep root-bound for best flowering results – Hoyas bloom more readily when slightly snug in their pots.
