Hoya lanceolata subsp. lanceolata
Porcelainflower - Wax Plant
Description
Hoya lanceolata subsp. lanceolata is a flowering plant belonging to the Apocynaceae family. Native to regions of northern Europe, this plant is a smaller, more delicate version of other hoya species. It's an epiphytic plant, meaning it grows on other plants. The leaves are small, lance-shaped, and often have a speckled or mottled appearance. The flowers are star-shaped, with a distinct, sweet fragrance, and appear in clusters. The flower color ranges from white to pink. It is a relatively slow-growing plant that thrives in bright, indirect light and well-draining potting mix. Avoid overwatering; allow the soil to dry out between waterings. Propagate from stem cuttings, and provide support structures for climbing.
