  •   Hoya Macrophylla is a tropical wax plant vine native to the rainforests of Southeast Asia, where it climbs and trails through the forest canopy. Part of the Apocynaceae family, it is a trailing hoya with outstanding foliage that stands out in any indoor space.

      It earns its name from impressively large, waxy leaves that are deep green with pale veins etched prominently across the surface, giving each leaf an almost quilted appearance. The thick, succulent-like foliage grows on long, flexible vines that trail from a hanging basket, making it a natural choice for vertical spaces and shelving.

      When conditions are right, including a slight drop in nighttime temperature, it produces tight clusters of small, star-shaped flowers in creamy white to pale pink tones with a light, sweet fragrance. Blooms appear on mature plants and repeat on the same spurs year after year, so old flower stalks should not be removed.

      It grows best in a hanging basket where the long vines can trail and show off every leaf. Rotate the pot regularly for even growth and keep it away from AC vents and heater drafts. Move it outside during summer in a sheltered spot, protecting it from heavy rain. You can leave it up to ten days without water. The leaves will wilt gently when dry. It is safe around cats and dogs.

  •   Hoya Macrophylla grows well in bright indirect light and can scorch if placed directly in a south-facing window.

      Water it thoroughly every 10 to 14 days, allowing the top half of the soil to dry out between waterings.

      Hoya Macrophylla grows well in a chunky, well-draining mix of potting soil, perlite, and orchid bark in equal parts.

      It prefers temperatures between 60 and 85°F and should never be exposed to frost.

      Hoya Macrophylla is a moderate grower that benefits from a balanced liquid fertilizer applied monthly during spring and summer.

      It is hardy in USDA zones 9 through 11, where temperatures stay above 20°F. It grows outdoors year-round in Florida, Hawaii, coastal and southern California, southern Texas, Arizona, Louisiana, southern Georgia, South Carolina, Alabama, Mississippi, and the mild coastal areas of Oregon and Nevada. In all other states, it grows as an indoor trailing wax plant that moves outside for the summer months.
  • Q: How often should I water Hoya Macrophylla?
    A: Water every 10 to 14 days; the leaves will wilt slightly when the soil is dry.

    Q: Can it survive a trip without a plant sitter?
    A: Hoya Macrophylla can handle up to ten days without water.

    Q: Is Hoya Macrophylla pet friendly?
    A: Yes, it is non-toxic and safe for cats and dogs.

    Q: What window placement works best for blooming?
    A: Hoya Macrophylla needs bright indirect light. East or west-facing windows work well, but keep it several feet back from a south-facing window to avoid leaf scorch.

    Q: How do I propagate Hoya Macrophylla?
    A: Take stem cuttings with at least one node and one or two leaves, then place them in water or moist, chunky soil until roots develop.

    Q: Does it need a humidifier?
    A: Hoya Macrophylla prefers higher humidity and does especially well near a kitchen window where natural moisture is present. A pebble tray with water nearby will also help.

    🌿 For Houseplants
    When your package arrives, you may notice a bit of loose soil in the box. This is completely normal during shipping.
    Please remove your plants from their packaging as soon as possible and review the care instructions included with your order. Water based on your plant’s needs, making sure not to overwater.
    Houseplants may need a short adjustment period after arrival. Give your plant time to acclimate to its new space before placing it with other plants. You can gently clean the leaves if needed, and wait to fertilize until it has settled in. Always check soil moisture instead of watering on a fixed schedule.
    *** We pack carefully to protect each plant during transit, so larger orders may arrive in multiple packages.
