Hoya Obovata

 

Hoyas are extremely popular houseplants. These attractive trailing plants are characterized by thick, waxy leaves and long tendrils. They make fantastic hanging plants, but can also easily climb trellises and moss poles.

Hoyas are  semi-succulent epiphytic plants, meaning that they naturally extract nutrients and moisture from the air and their thick leaves hold water similar to succulents. This makes them drought-tolerant, and, overall, relatively easy to care for. Care

Hoya obovata requires very little ongoing care and maintenance. They do well in indirect warm areas and require infrequent less watering to your ordinary houseplant. One important aspect of hoya care is fertilization - these fast-growing foliage plants benefit from regular fertilization during the spring and summer months to keep their growth healthy and full. 

While they are typically not grown for their blooms (and they usually don’t bloom until they are at least two to three years old), hoya flowers are quite stunning and fragrant if you are lucky enough to see them. If your hoya does bloom, it is important that you do not chop the flower stalk as the hoya will bloom again from the same stalk within the next couple of years.
