Hoya gracilis – Elegant Wax Plant

The Hoya gracilis (Hoya memoria) is a stunning trailing plant featuring narrow, lanceolate leaves adorned with silver speckles. Under bright light, the foliage develops a beautiful reddish hue, and in spring, it surprises with clusters of sweet-scented, pinkish-red flowers; a perfect choice for both beginners and plant collectors alike.

Care in short:

• Light: Plenty of indirect sunlight; mild morning sun stimulates flowering.
• Water: Allow the soil to dry out almost completely between waterings, as it is sensitive to root rot.
• Potting soil: Use a very airy mix containing perlite and orchid bark.
• Minimum temperature: Always at least 15°C; protect the plant from drafts and cold.

Give this resilient tropical climber a permanent, bright spot and enjoy its unique growth habit and delightful floral fragrance.
