wax plant or wax flower
With thick, glossy leaves showcasing striking variegation in shades of green, cream, and pink, this evergreen vine brings vibrant colour to indoor spaces.

How to care for Hoya Blondie:
Wax flower thrives in bright, indirect light and benefits from a little direct sun in the early morning or late afternoon to encourage flower bud formation. Keep the soil consistently moist during the summer but avoid waterlogging, and reduce watering in the colder months, giving the plant a good drink only when the soil is reasonably dry.
Mist the leaves regularly, especially if growing near central heating, and feed with a balanced liquid fertiliser monthly while actively growing. Maintain temperatures above 10°C (50°F) in winter, with ideal growing conditions around 18-25?°C (65-77°F).
