Hoya linearis Wax Plant

Hoya linearis is an elegant and unusual trailing houseplant with slender, soft green leaves that gently cascade over the edges of pots and hanging baskets. Unlike other Hoyas, its leaves are narrow and slightly fuzzy, giving it a unique texture and soft appearance. With time and care, this plant can produce clusters of fragrant white star-shaped flowers.

How often should I water my Hoya Linearis?
Water the plant once the soil has fully dried out, typically every 1-2 weeks, depending on environmental conditions. Overwatering can harm the plant, so ensure the topsoil is dry before watering again.
Is the Hoya Linearis suitable for beginners?
Absolutely! This plant is known for its low maintenance and forgiving nature, making it ideal for those new to houseplants. It requires minimal care and can tolerate occasional neglect.
Can the Hoya Linearis be used in terrariums or only hanging baskets?
While typically grown in hanging baskets due to its trailing growth, the Hoya Linearis can also be a beautiful addition to large, open terrariums that receive plenty of indirect light and have adequate air circulation.

☀️ Light

Emoji Scale: ☀️☀️▫️ (Medium)
The Hoya Linearis thrives in bright, indirect light but can handle a bit of direct sunlight too. Ideal placement is near a window where the sun’s rays are filtered through a sheer curtain.

💧 Water

Emoji Scale: 💧💧▫️ (Medium)
Allow the soil to dry out completely between waterings. This plant prefers to stay on the drier side, so be cautious not to overwater.

🌡️ Temperature

Emoji Scale: 🌡️🌡️▫️ (Average)
Hoya Linearis enjoys typical indoor temperatures but doesn’t fare well in cold drafts. Keep it in a room that’s consistently between 15°C and 25°C.

💦 Humidity

Emoji Scale: 💦💦▫️ (Moderate)
While it can tolerate average home humidity levels, it benefits from a boost in humidity. Consider placing it in a kitchen or bathroom if these rooms receive sufficient light.

🪴 Repotting

Use a well-draining potting mix, ideally our succulent potting mix available in the shop, to avoid soggy soil conditions. Repot every 2-3 years to refresh the soil and promote growth.

🐾 Pet Friendliness

This plant is non-toxic and safe for pets. A perfect choice for pet owners who want to spruce up their home without worry.

🏠 Recommended Locations at Home

Hang your Hoya Linearis in bright kitchens, well-lit hallways, or near north or east-facing windows. It’s a beautiful addition to spaces where its trailing vines can drape gracefully.

🌿 Air Purifying

Yes, this plant helps remove toxins from the air, making it not just beautiful but also beneficial for your home environment.

✨ Other Plant Features

Beyond its air-purifying capabilities, the Hoya Linearis is celebrated for its delicate, cascading foliage and potential to bloom with sweet-scented, star-shaped flowers that add a dash of charm to any room.
