Epiphytic hoya plant, also known as the wax plant, is a popular houseplant. With clusters of star-shaped flowers adorning it, this waxy-looking species survives with only the bare minimum of care.
The family of hoya plants is 200-300 different species with multiple different cultivars. Some bear gorgeous and aromatic flowers, others are vines with a wide diversity of leaf shapes. While we can’t cover it all in one piece, let’s look at a few of the most popular varieties to grow at home.
Sweet-smelling hoya carnosa is one of the most popular of the hoya plant varieties, with many different cultivars available. It has won the Royal Horticultural Society’s Award of Garden Merit for many of those cultivars, and is a phenomenal houseplant.
Originating in eastern Asia and Australia, it has waxy foliage and the star-shaped flowers common to all hoya varieties. It tends to grow as a vining plant. Reputed to be a great cleanser of indoor air pollutants, it’s a popular plant to grow.
With shiny, succulent leaves and a vining habit, the common waxflower is a common butterfly attractant in its native Australia. This hoya plant loves sunlight, growing along the edges of rainforests and on rocky outcroppings in the eastern and southern parts of its native ground.
