Hoya 'Publicalyx'
Best low-maintenance vining plant for busy indoor gardeners.
This vining beauty offers the high-impact drama of silvery, mottled foliage without the typical fuss of temperamental tropicals. It demands bright, indirect light to show off its signature purple-tinged stems, but rewards that placement with a vigorous, cascading growth that fills a space faster than almost any other Hoya.
