Hoya 'Publicalyx'

$ 35.99
Size: 6" Pot
DESCRIPTION
Living up to its reputation, the Hoya 'Publicalyx' is an exotic houseplant hailing from the tropical forests of Asia. Its leaves showcase a beautiful blend of deep green and silver, further accentuated by a glossy, wax-like texture that gives the plant its popular name, 'Wax Plant.' With an ability to reach about 12 inches in height and width, this plant's long, trailing vines have the potential to extend its display even further. When placed in a hanging basket or elevated pot, the vines will begin to trail downwards, creating a captivating waterfall of foliage. In a more confined space, they will coil around any support, creating a dense, green tapestry. The Hoya 'Publicalyx' can be a bit of a slow grower, but with patience and the right conditions, it can flourish and fill up space beautifully. But the true spectacle of this plant lies in its stunning floral display. When mature and under the right conditions, the Hoya 'Publicalyx' produces clusters of star-shaped flowers that are truly a sight to behold. The flowers are deep red, almost black in color, and they are surrounded by a bright pink corona, creating a mesmerizing contrast against the dark green of the leaves. These flowers are not only beautiful to look at but also emit a subtle, pleasant fragrance that fills the room, especially during the evening. The Hoya 'Publicalyx' is more than just a pretty face, though. This hardy plant is known for its resilience and adaptability, making it an excellent choice for both seasoned plant enthusiasts and beginners. It thrives in bright, indirect light and prefers a well-draining soil mix. And, like most succulents, it prefers to be kept on the drier side, making it a low-maintenance addition to any indoor garden. Whether you're looking to add a touch of tropical elegance to your living space or searching for a beautiful, easy-to-care-for plant, the Hoya 'Publicalyx' is a fantastic choice. Its unique combination of striking foliage, stunning flowers, and hardy nature makes it a must-have for any houseplant collection.
PLANT SIZING & APPEARANCE

Plant sizing is based on the diameter of the nursery pot (2", 2.5", 3", 4" etc), not the plant itself. Plants may be slightly larger or smaller than the pot they are grow in depending on availability or time of year. While we do our best to ship plants as similar to those pictured as possible, please keep in mind that all plants are unique from one to the next, and display color, shape, and growth variation based on current environment, time of year, and other contributing factors. Please note that we ship our plants as dry as possible in the fall and winter months to prevent root rot or freezing. They will plump back up after planting!
