Hoya Purple Pride | Stunning Purple-Toned Wax Plant|190mm

Hoya Purple Pride is an attractive tropical plant prized for its beautiful waxy foliage, trailing growth and distinctive ornamental appearance. Under suitable growing conditions, its foliage can develop attractive colour tones that make this Hoya an eye-catching addition to any indoor plant collection.

With its climbing and trailing habit, Hoya Purple Pride looks fantastic in hanging baskets, decorative pots or trained onto a small trellis. Its relatively low-maintenance nature and beautiful foliage make it an excellent choice for Australian Hoya enthusiasts, indoor gardeners and collectors looking for something a little different.

Care Guide

Light: Prefers bright, indirect light. Gentle morning sun can be beneficial, but protect the foliage from intense afternoon sunlight.

Water: Allow the upper portion of the potting mix to dry between watering. Avoid keeping the roots constantly wet.

Soil: Use an airy, well-draining potting mix suitable for Hoyas or other epiphytic tropical plants.

Position: Ideal for bright indoor spaces, covered patios, hanging baskets and other warm, protected positions.

Maintenance: Allow vines to trail naturally or provide support for climbing. Avoid unnecessary pruning of old flower spurs, as Hoyas can flower again from them.
