Hoya is a genus of tropical plants known for their waxy, fragrant flowers and thick, succulent leaves. Commonly referred to as "wax plants," they are popular among houseplant enthusiasts due to their unique appearance and relatively low maintenance needs. Hoya species can be found in various regions, primarily in Southeast Asia and Australia. These plants thrive in bright, indirect light and prefer well-draining soil. Hoya can be grown in pots or hanging baskets, making them versatile for indoor gardening.
