  •   The 6 inch Hoya Australis Lisa (Hoya australis 'Lisa') is a rare variegated wax vine native to Australia and parts of Southeast Asia, where it climbs through tropical and subtropical forests. This sought-after cultivar has earned a loyal following among collectors who love a statement houseplant with genuine rarity behind it.

      The 6 inch Hoya Australis Lisa is instantly recognizable for its thick, waxy leaves splashed with creamy yellow and soft pink variegation at the center, deepening to rich green at the edges. New growth often flushes rosy red before maturing, giving the plant a dynamic, ever-changing look. The trailing vines grow long and lush, making this variegated wax plant one of the most visually striking hoyas you can own.

      Given the right conditions, the 6 inch Hoya Australis Lisa rewards patient growers with clusters of star-shaped, porcelain-white flowers with pink-red centers, carrying a sweet, honey-like fragrance. Blooms appear most reliably when the plant experiences a slight nighttime temperature drop, which signals the flowering cycle to begin. Keeping it slightly root-bound and avoiding unnecessary repotting also encourages those gorgeous porcelain flower clusters to appear.

      The 6 inch Hoya Australis Lisa is a collector's gem and a genuinely rare find in the wax vine hoya world. It trails beautifully from a hanging hook or drapes elegantly from a high shelf, safely out of reach of curious pets and toddlers, since the sap can cause skin or paw irritation if handled. It loves the ambient moisture near a kitchen, thrives with a summer stint outdoors, and is remarkably self-sufficient, easily surviving a 10-day trip without a caretaker. Rotate it regularly for even, full growth and keep it away from AC vents or heater drafts to keep those stunning variegated leaves at their best.

  •   The 6 inch Hoya Australis Lisa thrives in bright indirect light and will scorch in direct south-facing window sun.

      Water the 6 inch Hoya Australis Lisa every 10-14 days in summer, less in winter, letting soil dry out between waterings.

      The 6 inch Hoya Australis Lisa prefers a well-draining mix of potting soil, perlite, and orchid bark in equal parts.

      The 6 inch Hoya Australis Lisa prefers temperatures of 60-85°F (15-29°C) and should never be exposed to frost.

      The 6 inch Hoya Australis Lisa grows at a moderate pace and benefits from a balanced liquid fertilizer monthly during the growing season.

      The 6 inch Hoya Australis Lisa is best suited to USDA FAQs/ Common Issues Zones 9-11, where temperatures stay reliably above 25°F (-4°C). Outdoor growers in California, Florida, Texas, Arizona, Hawaii, Louisiana, Georgia, South Carolina, Alabama, Mississippi, and Nevada can enjoy this rare variegated wax vine outside year-round. Parts of coastal Oregon, Washington, and North Carolina that sit within Zone 9 can also grow the 6 inch Hoya Australis Lisa outdoors with minimal winter protection.

    🌿 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.
