Hoya 'Publicalyx' - Vine & Shine: Stunning Wax Plant with Mottled Leaves and Purple Stems

Introducing Vine & Shine, your new leafy companion that’s all about making a statement! The Hoya 'Publicalyx', also known as the Wax Plant, brings a splash of nature's artistry into your home with its deep green, lanceolate leaves dotted with silvery variegation. Depending on how much light it soaks up, its stems can surprise you with a gorgeous shade of purple—talk about a mood plant! Whether you let it climb up a trellis or dangle elegantly from a hanging pot, Vine & Shine is eager to show off its versatile beauty.

Benefits:

• Easy Maintenance: No high-maintenance diva here; it's very forgiving and thrives on neglect.
• Air Purifying: Helps keep your indoor air fresh and breathable.
• Versatile Display: Perfect for climbing trellises or hanging baskets.
• Visual Appeal: Unique silvery variegation and potential purple stems make it a beautiful addition.

Care Instructions:

Keep Vine & Shine thriving by placing it in bright, indirect light. Direct sunlight? Only if you want those purple hues! Water moderately once the top inch of soil feels dry. This plant prefers a slight drying out between waterings. It loves high humidity but can adapt to average household conditions. Fertilize it every two months during the growing season with a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer, and it will thank you with beautiful foliage!

Décor Tips:

Get creative with Vine & Shine! Place it in a hanging pot to let its vines cascade down, creating a lush green waterfall effect. Alternatively, give it a trellis to climb for a vertical garden vibe. Pair it with other variegated plants to make a compelling green corner in your home.
