Hoya Chelsea Wax Flower Porcelain Flower 3 Inch Pot Plant

Hoya or Wax Plant

Location: South, east, or west window. Good light is vital.

Height: Climbs and Trails. Give a piece of bark or small trellis in the pot to climb on.

Soil: Compost, leaf mold and sand. For prolific flowering grow pot bound.

Watering. Keep dry in autumn, and water copiously in late winter when in bud and flower.

Special Care: In autumn keep cool and dry with only enough water to prevent the leaves from shriveling, but give weekly plant food. In January bring to warmth, increase the water supply and spray foliage. Handle carefully, leaving new spurs undisturbed, as they are the source of flowers and next year’s blooms will also be on them.
