Hoya australis, commonly known as Waxvine, Porcelain Flower, and Honey Plant, is a classic, easygoing vining houseplant loved for its thick, glossy green leaves and clusters of sweetly fragrant, star-shaped blooms. Native to Australia and parts of the South Pacific, this vigorous climber naturally grows along rainforest edges and rocky coastal regions, making it both adaptable and rewarding indoors.

Train it up a trellis or let it trail from a shelf or hanging basket—Hoya australis ‘Waxvine’ brings a lush, tropical look with minimal fuss, making it a great pick for beginners and seasoned Hoya collectors alike.

Why You’ll Love Hoya australis

  • Fragrant Blooms: Produces clusters (umbels) of porcelain-like, star-shaped flowers with a sweet scent.
  • Glossy, Waxy Foliage: Thick leaves stay attractive year-round and help the plant tolerate occasional missed waterings.
  • Easy & Adaptable: Does well in average indoor humidity and a range of bright-to-medium light conditions.
  • Trailing or Climbing Habit: Ideal for hanging baskets, shelves, trellises, or moss poles.
  • Pollinator Friendly (Outdoors): In its native habitat, flowers can attract pollinators—including butterflies.

Plant Profile

  • Botanical Name: Hoya australis
  • Common Names: Waxvine, Porcelain Flower, Honey Plant
  • Family: Apocynaceae
  • Native Range: Australia; parts of the South Pacific
  • Growth Habit: Trailing / climbing vine
  • Toxicity: Commonly listed as non-toxic, but as with any plant, discourage chewing and keep out of reach of pets/kids who like to nibble.

Care Guide

  • Light: Best in bright, indirect light. Can tolerate medium light, but brighter light improves growth and blooming. Avoid intense, direct midday sun.
  • Water: Let the top 1–2 inches of soil dry between waterings. Water thoroughly, then allow excess to drain. Overwatering is the fastest way to stress a Hoya.
  • Humidity: Average home humidity is typically fine. Higher humidity can support faster growth and easier blooming, but it adapts well.
  • Temperature: Prefers 60–85°F (16–29°C). Protect from cold drafts and sudden temperature drops.
  • Soil: Use a chunky, well-draining mix (e.g., potting mix amended with orchid bark and perlite/pumice) to keep roots airy.
  • Fertilizer: Feed monthly during spring/summer with a diluted balanced fertilizer. Reduce or pause feeding in fall/winter.
  • Support: Provide a trellis or hoop if you want upward growth; Hoyas often bloom more readily on mature vines.

Propagation

Propagation is simple with stem cuttings. Take a cutting with 2–3 nodes, remove the lowest leaves, and root in water, sphagnum, or a chunky Hoya mix. Keep warm with bright, indirect light for best results.

Note: Avoid removing old flower spurs (peduncles)—Hoyas often rebloom from the same spurs.

Superb debut!
Format: Kindle
Wow! I loved this book so much! I've been a pro tennis fan since I was a little kid, so I put this book on my TBR the moment I saw it. However, had I known about the supernatural soulmate/soulmark element (first time I've ever heard of that trope) I would have moved it to the top of the pile IMMEDIATELY. Now I can't wait to read more, both in that trope and from this author. A great debut, and I can't wait to read future books from this writer!

magical realism + sports romance
Format: Paperback
3.75★ sapphic challengers with some ashley poston-esque magical realism! this was a fun twist on the soulmate concept, making them real possibilities for the lucky few born with the name of their marking their wrist. for luca, it's everything she's dreamed of. for juliette, it would only get in the way of her tennis dreams. luca and juliette face off as tennis rivals who also happen to be soulmates. juliette deals w the pressure of being 3rd in a whole family of tennis aficionados while luca deals w her legendary plays as merely "luck". if you really like tennis or the sports aspect of sports romance, this definitely gets into the thick of it. sometimes it was confusing for me as someone who doesn't really know tennis well, but generally, i enjoyed it. The romance was really cute, I did find Juliette a little bit bratty in the beginning (probably deliberate) but there's definitely growth with their relationship. Overall, it was an enjoyable sports romance with a little ✨ an honest arc review ♡

Decent fluffy beach read
Format: Paperback
As a lifelong tennis fan and a queer woman, I was excited to find this book. However, the writing and characterization were not the best and I found the language used to describe the sex scenes pretty distasteful (like something you'd find in a hetero romance novel, I imagine). Nevertheless, I finished the book and it was still a decent fluffy beach read.

Loved it
Format: Kindle
This book was a Rollercoaster of emotions and I was all about it. I love the relationship between Luca and Juliette bc it was real and human. It showed growth, love, and understanding. It wasn't easy but it was real. I enjoyed every moment of it especially the soul marks. That was a wonderful element to the plot that I would love to read more of.

So cute
Format: Paperback
Ok, going into this, I didn't realize this had any fantasy-ish/magical elements, so for a minute, that threw me off. But honestly, I was really pleasantly surprised by this book. I had never heard of Katie Chandler before, but had seen the book mentioned on a list of upcoming releases so I just thought I would give it a try. This is a classic rivals to lovers story and I was here for it! Luca and Juliette were pretty nasty to each other in the beginning so it definitely took a minute for them to come around. I really enjoyed the amount of character growth that happened in this story. Juliette especially comes a long way within herself to be a better person her Luca and for herself. It was definitely a bit of a rollercoaster with the push and pull, but it paid off in the end. The idea of a "fated mates" situation, in a mostly contemporary romance was definitely original and I look forward to seeing how she might incorporate those fantasy elements into future books. 4 stars from me! Great story.
