The Hoya Australis is native to Indonesia and Australia. The name Australis comes from the Country in which it was found; Australia. In the wild this plant would grow on a tree or a log climbing and hanging down. The leaves are oval with a crease in the center. They are rather thin for Hoya leaves. Its blooms are cream colored and simple, with a bit more spade between individual flowers than other Hoya.

Light: Bright Indirect light.

Water: Let your Hoya dry out most of the way before watering again. This Hoya has fimsy leaves when in need of water.

Soil: Chunky well draining soil, with bark, and perlite.

Notes: Hoya love to be fertilized! This will encourage blooms and faster growth.

What to expect

You will receive a plant similar in size to the one you choose. I will not send you a smaller plant than the one you select. There will be variation in how each plant looks but I guarantee you will receive a quality plant with a well developed root system.

Heating Pack

I recommend a heating pack when your shipment may encounter temperatures below 40 degrees. Please add one heating pack to your order if you feel this may occur.

Bare Root Packing Available

Your plant will be sent in a nursery pot unless otherwise specified. My favorite way of sending plants is with the root systems wrapped in moss and plastic without a nursery pot. This option is for people who know which potting medium they would like to put it in when it arrives. Please specify during checkout if you would like your plant shipped bare root.
