Hoya, commonly referred to as "Wax Plant" is a genus consisting of over 500 species. Hoyas are widely cultivated for their aromatic blooms and unique foliage. They are native to tropical and subtropical areas all around the world. They can be found in Latin America, Asia, Australia, etc. Mostly epiphytic, you'll find they love to climb trees in their natural habitats. Hoyas have a large range of foliage shapes and textures. They can be found with elongated, deeply veined leaves to thin, narrow leaves and everything in between. Generally, most Hoya plants prefer to dry out almost completely between watering due to their semi-succulent nature. Some Hoyas do need more water than others. Most Hoya plants do best in warm temperatures (60-90deg) but all are well suited as indoor plants. They prefer bright indirect light and to be fertilized with a partially diluted houseplant fertilizer every other watering during the growing season.
