  • Scientific Name: Hoya publicalyx
  • Common Names: Royal Wax Plant
  • Native Region: Native to Southeast Asia, including the Philippines, Malaysia, and Indonesia.

Light Requirements: Prefers bright, indirect light. Can tolerate some direct sunlight but avoid prolonged exposure to intense sunlight, especially during the hottest parts of the day.

Water Requirements: Prefers to dry out almost completely between waterings. This helps prevent overwatering and ensures the plant's roots have the opportunity to experience a drying cycle. Water sparingly in winter when growth is slower, ensuring the plant's roots do not sit in waterlogged soil.

Soil Preference: Flourishes in well-draining, lightweight potting mix with added perlite or orchid bark for aeration. A mix tailored for epiphytic plants is ideal.

Fertilizing: Feed with a balanced liquid fertilizer every 2-4 weeks during the growing season (spring and summer). Reduce frequency in fall and winter to accommodate the plant's natural slowdown in growth.

Hardiness Zone: Suitable for USDA Hardiness Zones 10-11.
Pet Safety: Generally considered non-toxic to pets.

Additional Care Tips: Provide sturdy support for climbing vines. Prune selectively to manage size and promote bushiness, focusing on removing any dead or unhealthy growth.
