Wax Plant (Hoya carnosa)

Wax Plant is a classic, long-lived hoya prized for thick, glossy leaves and clusters of sweetly fragrant, star-shaped flowers; an easy indoor vine that thrives in bright, indirect light and a chunky, fast-draining mix as a hanging or trellised specimen.

Distinctive Features

Succulent foliage stores water and develops a handsome sheen, while waxy umbels on mature plants rebloom from persistent peduncles, delivering a long flowering season under steady light and warmth.

Growing Conditions

Provide strong filtered light, warm temperatures, and an airy epiphyte blend; allow partial dry-down between waterings and keep humidity moderate for reliable growth and bloom.

  • Sun Exposure: Bright, indirect light; brief morning sun is beneficial, avoid harsh afternoon rays.
  • Soil: Well-drained, airy mix with bark and perlite plus a small amount of peat or coco; avoid dense, water-holding soils.
  • Water: Water thoroughly, then let the top 1 to 2 in dry; reduce in winter and err slightly dry to prevent rot.
  • USDA Hardiness Zones: 10 to 11 outdoors; grow as a houseplant elsewhere.
  • Mature Size: Vines typically 4 to 10 ft indoors with support.
  • Bloom Time: Spring to fall on established vines with adequate light.
  • Humidity: Moderate to high, about 40 to 60 percent.
  • Soil pH: Slightly acidic to neutral, around 6.0 to 7.0.

Ideal Uses

Train on a hoop or trellis for a sculptural specimen, or let stems cascade from shelves and baskets to showcase glossy foliage and fragrant umbels.

  • Focal Point: Shiny leaves and starry blooms create a bold indoor accent.
  • Hanging Displays: Trailing stems highlight foliage and flowers.
  • Trellised Specimen: Twining growth forms tidy spirals on hoops or ladders.
  • Collector Groupings: Mix with variegated or silver-splashed hoyas for contrast.
  • Bright-Shade Corners: Performs where many tropical vines struggle.

Low Maintenance Care

Keep roots slightly snug, feed lightly during warm months, and never remove flower spurs to encourage repeat bloom; patience and steady conditions are rewarded.

  • Watering: Deep soak and drain fully; allow partial dry-down and avoid standing water.
  • Pruning: Tip-trim for shape but do not cut peduncles, which rebloom.
  • Fertilizing: Apply balanced or bloom-boosting fertilizer at half strength monthly in spring and summer.
  • Mulching: Not required in pots; a thin decorative bark layer can slow evaporation.
  • Notes: Provide airflow to deter mealybugs and scale; repot only when rootbound to maintain flowering momentum.

Why Choose Wax Plant?

This beloved species pairs glossy, drought-tolerant foliage with delightful fragrance and forgiving care for years of indoor enjoyment.

  • Fragrant Umbels: Waxy stars on mature vines in good light.
  • Waterwise: Succulent leaves tolerate brief dry-downs.
  • Space Efficient: Trails or trains vertically to fit small areas.
  • Long-Lived: Improves with age and steady conditions.
  • Easy and Adaptable: Reliable houseplant for beginners and collectors.

Place in bright, indirect light with a chunky mix, allow partial dry-down between waterings, and keep peduncles intact to enjoy repeat bloom and glossy leaves.

A Civilization in Transition: Can Humans Make the "Jump" to Hyperspace?
Format: Hardcover
Though there is ample evidence to suggest that humanity has been visited by "off-planet" beings or relatives since as far back as any recorded history in stone or on paper, with the advent of technologies bringing us closer to an enlightenment or a destruction, UFO/UAP events seem to becoming more frequent. And more accepted. When UFO...CONTACT FROM THE PLEIADES v I and II were first published 45 years ago few people had a personal computer in their homes let alone any digital technology whatsoever. There were gains in human rights protections along with ecological study and the awareness of the importance to "love our Mother." (Earth) So it may not be so unreal to consider that one specific human, a farmer in rural Switzerland was chosen for multiple contact events and allowed to capture photographs, audio recordings, films and even metallic samples from OP visitors for the purpose of helping humanity expand its consciousness to the next level. This reissue tells such a story with vivid photography, detailed analysis and skilled reporting having used the most advanced non-civilian equipment available at the highest levels in its day. Furthermore, time has only affirmed that none of the photographs or video from the Billy Meier case have proved to be fake or forged in any known way. This is the book for searchers interested in the "nuts and bolts" of ufology. And yet... Whether you believe in UFOs or off-planet visitors is really beside the point here. The deeper point - and the not so hidden purpose revealed through the messages given to Billy Meier from Semjase, a Pleiadean traveler who contacted Meier over 100 times in the 1970s - is to consider if each one of us is capable of suspending disbelief long enough to be curious, which takes an open heart. And if we open our hearts, how can we do harm to ourselves, our planet, or others in the universe? And if we can achieve "do no harm" what else could we achieve? Hyperspace? Telepathy? A humane civilization where no one goes hungry or homeless? The point is whether or not we are ready, collectively, to expand our consciousness. After reading this book, I want to take that leap!

A wonderful book !l
Format: Hardcover
No doubt the subject of UFO's and ET's is a challenging subject. But the Billy Meier story is certainly one of the very best. This book is masterwork that warrants the highest rating. The photos are extraordinary and the story line is superb. Buy a copy or several for yourself and for gifts . A. very happy customer ....indeed.

Beyond Expectations
Format: Hardcover
Since I have had several experiences I am always looking for something legitimate -something that looks into the heart and truth of the material and comes out authentic to the core - I love this book - It far exceeds what I expected and am very happy I ordered it to add to my collection. This will be on the top of the stack! The only down side is that amazon packaged it rougly where it slid freely about in an overlarge box --This ended up tearing the top of the dj rear --- :( I do hope they do not pack all orders for this bk that way - if there are notes you can add to your order you might request book packaging or something more durable than sliding loosely about I found out about this book on the newsletter I receive from Shirley MacClaine - she always has valuable nuggets to share !!!
