The Hoya Carnosa Tricolor is a beautiful plant with thick leaves. These leaves have a green outerline and a cream center, sometimes this cream center can even be pink! Which makes the plant look super playful. This colourful plant can even grow some wax flowers for you! These are white with a pinkish center, which matches the plant perfectly. These flowers have an amazing scent. Which makes her not only a delight for your eyes, but also for your nose. :)
Since this Hoya has some parts that are not green, she will need some more light to compensate for this. This is because the lighter parts can’t generate any energy for the plant. The Carnosa grows as an epiphyte in nature, which means that she has the ability to grow on top of other plants instead in soil. In our urban jungle this results in her needing a special soil mix, our Epiphytes potting mix kit contains all the substrates to make her feel right at home. She needs to be watered whenever the top of this soil mix is beginning to feel dry. She is more likely to survive underwatering, rather than overwatering. So make sure to be gentle with the amount of water. Lastly she will love some humidity of 60% or higher. By doing this the chance is big she will produce those amazing smelling flowers for you!
Stunning plant! As usual it came well packed and in super good condition
Wonderful plant, perfect condition

Everything about Hoya
Hoya plants are a very impressive group of tropical houseplants. Plant collectors and experts estimate that there are more than 600 species in their family. Various characteristics distinguish different species and cultivars, including leaf shape, flower colour, size, and growth pattern.
Most Wax Plants are really easy to care for, but some cultivars require more attention. Overall, they are slow-growing plants with long stems and fleshy deep green waxy leaves. Some varieties even produce unique flowers. They (can) produce sweet-smelling and star-shaped flowers, usually with five thick and waxy petals.
