Hoya pubicalyx
The package contains a plant in a plastic pot.
About the plant:
Hoya or hoja is an unpretentious climbing succulent plant native to Southeast Asia and Australia. This succulent creeper is decorated with elongated fleshy leaves with silver spots. Its stems can take on a purple tint due to lighting conditions. Hoye got its Czech name of wax plants on the basis of its star-shaped flowers, which, like their leaves, shine like wax. They bloom from spring to autumn with burgundy-red flowers that are gently fragrant. We never remove the flowered parts of the plant, as another inflorescence will form on them later. Hoyas are fast-growing plants that should be supported as they grow - they are often woven into decorative supports (for example, circles).

Delivery to the address by courier
We ship live plant orders Monday through Thursday. If we are unable to prepare your order during these days, we will ship it again the following week. We want to avoid plants sitting in the warehouse for too long, which is especially important during the winter months when cold conditions can be detrimental to them.
Individual shipping prices:
1. DPD
The day before delivery, a DPD courier will contact you with the exact delivery date. If you would like to redirect the shipment to a pick-up point, you can arrange this directly with the carrier. However, we strongly recommend not redirecting to pick-up boxes during the winter months, as low temperatures can damage the plants. In such a case, we cannot be held responsible for the condition of the plants and no claims will be accepted.
