Hoya

A Hoya is a genus of tropical plants known for their attractive, waxy leaves and often fragrant, star-shaped flowers. Commonly called “wax plants,” Hoyas thrive indoors or in warm, humid environments, making them popular houseplants. They are easy to care for, requiring well-draining soil and moderate watering, and they can tolerate some neglect. Hoyas are also notable for their unique, trailing or climbing growth habit, making them ideal for hanging baskets or training on supports. Many species are valued for their beauty and fragrance, adding ornamental appeal to homes and gardens.
