Hoya Australis Lisa Wax Plant 12cm pot

The Hoya Australis Lisa showcases beautiful round, waxy leaves with creamy, yellow and pink variegation The contrast between the lush green base colour and the soft cream and pink variegation will add a touch of colour to your indoor jungle.

Each Hoya Australis plant is carefully selected from our stock, ensuring that you receive a specimen of exceptional quality. The plants shown in the pictures represent examples of our actual stock, and while each plant is unique, you can expect to receive a plant with similar characteristics.

As a member of the Hoya family, sometimes also called wax plants due to shiny waxy leaves, the Australis Lisa thrives in bright indirect light. Place it near a window where it can receive plenty of filtered sunlight to ensure its optimal growth and leaf variegation. The plant can handle also direct morning and after-afternoon sunlight. Water the plant when the soil becomes dry, and be mindful not to overwater as Hoyas prefer well-draining soil.

One of the highlights of the Hoya Australis ‘Lisa’ is its clusters of delicate, star-shaped flowers that emit a sweet fragrance. These blooms appear in shades of pink or white, adding a delightful touch to the overall charm of the plant. Currently, our plants are not blooming but in the proper care, you can anticipate the joy of witnessing these beautiful blossoms.

Originating from Australia, the Hoya Australis Lisa is a low-maintenance and resilient plant which makes it a great home and office plant. Ideal for beginners or as a birthday or housewarming gift for plant lovers!

Description

There are over 500 recognised species included in the genus Hoya (the number varies greatly due to discrepancy within the group and new species being discovered).  Most Hoya plants are originary from Asia, Australasia and the Pacific islands. The Hoya genus was named by botanist Robert Brown, after his also botanist friend, Thomas Hoy.

Hoya species are found in rainforest, coastal and cliff habitats, where they may grow climbing on other plants (this pattern is also known as epiphytic), forming vines, and occasionally, shrubs.
