Hoya australis ‘Lisa’. Native to Australia, where it grows climbing in bright environments with strong airflow and drying cycles between rain. Roots sit in airy material that dries quickly. This cultivar is valued for its variegation and color shift. Leaves are thick, waxy, with green, cream, and pink tones that intensify under higher light.
Light requirements.
Prefers east and south windows.
Place 1–2 ft from the window.
Grow lights 5000K–6500K.
10–14 inches from canopy.
Foot-candles: 800–1,500 for variegation and compact growth.
Watering & environment.
Allow soil to fully dry out between watering.
Use a chopstick or moisture meter to confirm the root zone is dry.
Prefers moderate humidity with strong airflow.
What your plant is telling you.
Needs water: leaves soften and lose rigidity.
Too wet: yellowing and root decline.
Light issues: variegation fades and leaves turn more green.

Beautiful plants I always buy my plants through rooted plant shop. that’s my go to shop
The book is done so well. I can’t imagine the time you spent putting this all together. You’re truly a gifted gardener. Thank so much for this. I’ve always gardened outside the house plants and succulents are new for me. So I really appreciate this book and your website with plants in certain lighting. Thanks for helping me succeed in my plants. I also bought a Micah’s. What beautiful plant. Packed nicely and secure. Thank you I’ll be back for more plants. In a true follower from Kansas.
My Black Velvet Alocasia arrived VERY well packaged, healthy and is already pushing out a new leaf! With all the helpful information listed on the site I was able to place it and care for it exactly as it is needed.
This arrived in great shape and vibrant color. Will be ordering again.
What a cool way to discover new plants! I love it!
I am stunned at the Ring of Fire's color. So pretty. She's looking like she handled the trip well and I can't wait to watch her grow.
Beautiful plant. Shipping was great. Plant was well protected for shipping. Even came with an instruction card on what you should do when the plant you unpacked it.
