Hoya australis ‘Lisa’ is a beautiful variegated wax plant with thick, glossy leaves edged in creamy white and soft pink tones on new growth. Its trailing vines make it a perfect choice for hanging planters or training up a trellis.
Hoyas are known for being hardy, low-maintenance plants once established. ‘Lisa’ prefers bright, indirect light, which helps maintain strong variegation and encourages flowering. In the right conditions, it may produce clusters of fragrant, star-shaped blooms.
Water only when the potting mix has mostly dried out. Hoya roots are sensitive to excess moisture, so a chunky, well-draining soil blend works best.
This plant adapts well to typical household humidity and is an excellent option for gardeners who want something decorative without constant attention.
With its creamy foliage and trailing form, Hoya ‘Lisa’ adds softness, color, and tropical charm indoors.
