About Hoya aff. clemensiorum
With over 500 species and even more cultivars, there's a Hoya out there for everyone! They're native to Southeast Asia and their common name, waxplant, refers to their thick, waxy leaves which help them retain water in the heat. They're excellent climbers and will take off if you give them a trellis to grow on. Their other-worldly, star-shaped flowers are often fragrant and come in brilliant shades of red, pink, yellow, and more!

This is my first hoya and I am still new to indoor plants! Since my anxiety calls the shots, I ordered this hoya online and it came in this condition. Is it healthy? Any tips? There are small brown spots and some of the leaves are hard on the ends. #Hoya

Fresh leaf Friday! I got some plant mail yesterday that I’m so excited about from #plantproper. HUGE thanks to the Greg team for the gift card thanking me for spending my spring break chatting with everyone on the app about plant care! I loved the extra time off to answer questions and learn more myself in the process about taking care of our plants. #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #GregGang #greggivesback #HappyPlants #FreshLeafFriday #Hoya #Maranta #HoyaHangout

#Hoya #HappyPlants #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #PlantAddict My Hoya obsession is satisfied (for today) 😬 I just received Hoya Sarawak from Canopy Plants. I couldn’t be more pleased. She has beautiful dinner plate leaves that over time will sun stress a pretty reddish blush. She sits on my desk where I can stare at her all day in awe 💕

I really am just playing it by ear and going with what I’ve seen on reddit but I’m worried im going to kill them. These things are massive and I would love to get them both rooted!
