Description
Porcelain flower or wax plant is a commonly grown houseplant. It has long slender vines covered with waxy, deep green leathery leaves sometimes flecked with silver or creamy white. To make this plant appear denser, wrap its sparsely leaved stems around a bamboo trellis and secure with florist tape or nylon stocking strips. Bright indirect light year-round is ideal. Allow the soil to dry out between waterings. Wax plants love high humidity and the foliage appreciates misting. The flowers are star-shaped, in parachute-shaped clusters, with a sweet fragrance and may produce a sticky sap.

Care Guide

Though it may vary depending on the species, hoyas are generally easy to maintain. They're not too particular about soil type as long as it has good drainage and they don't need much fertilizer.

They prefer indirect light but can tolerate low light levels, making them ideal for apartments or office settings. Hoyas are also relatively drought-tolerant, so you won't need to water them too often.

The main thing to remember with hoyas is that they like to be pot-bound, so don't re-pot them too often, or they may stop blooming.
