CloseNot to be confused with its cousin, Hoya carnosa, this Wax Vine has narrow, lance-shaped leaves that are speckled with color rather than edged with white. Hoyas are pet-friendly, which is a good thing since they trail vigorously, often dangling enticingly within a pet’s reach. Alternatively, give Hoya support so it can climb upwards. In either case, the Wax Vine is happiest with a well-lit room and deep but infrequent watering.
