Wax Plant

Botanical Name: Hoya carnosa


Long, slender vines of the Wax Plant are covered with thick, green leathery leaves.

Given enough light, Wax Plant will produce parachute clusters of star-shaped, white to pink flowers with five-point centers. Those flowers are so intricately detailed, uniformly shaped and shiny, they're sometimes called Porcelain Flower. You can expect Hoyas to bloom in the spring, summer or fall, depending on the variety.

Sticky flowers? Hoya flowers are sweetly scented and may form drops of sticky nectar. This is normal.

Dropped flower buds are often caused by soil that is too dry or too wet. Also, do not move the plant when buds are forming because changes in light may cause them to drop. Raising the humidity can help.

Repot in early spring every 2-3 years or when it outgrows its pot. Wax Plant blooms best when almost pot -bound, so move it to a slightly larger pot (about 2 inches (5 cm) larger than the old one). Never repot a plant when it's in bloom because it may drop its flower buds.

Hoya carnosa is a fast grower.
