Description

Hoya coronaria - red waxflower

APPEARANCE: Exotic climber/trailer with fleshy succulent leaves and star shaped red waxy flowers in clusters.
USE FOR : Beautiful indoor and conservatory plant for cooler states, or outside in subtropical gardens
PLANTING : Plant in free-draining compost or orchid mix in bright or dappled light in the garden or indoors. In far north Queensland they may flower less due to the warm winters
CARE: Keep it on the dry side, especially in the cooler months when growth slows. A cooler spot in winter seems to encourage flowering when the warmer summer weather returns. Mist regularly to maintain humidity if the air is dry. This species tends to like a more alkaline soil too.
HEIGHT & WIDTH: 3m H x 0.2m W.
YOUR PLANTS : These are tubestock plants, healthy young plants with new roots that will establish quickly in your garden. The pot size is 80mm high and 42 mm wide.
You can see an example in the image gallery.
