Each new leaf on the hoya australis appears bronze in color when it first emerges. Growing like most hoya varieties, these vining plants are perfect for a hanging basket, or to grow vertically up a trellis. A bright indirect light and time for the soil to dry fully between waterings, is all that this plant demands in care. Pick out a well draining pot that you love for this plant, they won’t need to be repotted often, as they love to be a bit snug in their pots. A succulent and cactus soil blend is perfect for these drought tolerant plants, and will ensure the soil does not stay too wet, keeping your watering simple and easy.
