Hoya plants often called Sweetheart Hoya or Wax Plants, are a succulent plant that are native to Asia. These evergreen plants produce clusters of waxy white or pink flowers and can be grown outdoors in USDA hardiness zones 10 and 11. Hoya carnosa is the most popular variety of Sweetheart Hoya, with its round leaves having a leathery feel. When growing Sweetheart Hoyas outdoors, it's important to note that they need partial to full sun depending on their location; however over-exposure to direct sunlight can cause bleaching of some leaves. Sweetheart Hoyas also require lots of humidity for optimal growth and blooming, so misting may be necessary indoors. Their flowers, generally up to four inches across and scented like vanilla, attract lots of attention from admirers from afar!
