Burton's Wax Plant (Hoya sp. aff. burtoniae)

Burton's Wax Plant is a compact, trailing hoya with thick, slightly fuzzy leaves that blush bronze to burgundy in strong light and clusters of fragrant, starry blooms; it excels as a hanging or trellised indoor specimen in bright, indirect light.

Distinctive Features

Succulent, lance-shaped foliage develops red tones and dark edges under high light, while waxy umbels of pink to red flowers with contrasting centers appear on mature vines and rebloom from persistent peduncles.

Growing Conditions

Provide strong filtered light, a chunky, fast-draining mix, and moderate watering with partial dry-down; warmth and moderate humidity support steady growth and flowering.

  • Sun Exposure: Bright, indirect light with brief morning sun; avoid harsh afternoon rays.
  • Soil: Airy epiphytic mix with bark, perlite, and a small amount of peat or coco; excellent drainage is essential.
  • Water: Water thoroughly, then allow the top 1 to 2 in to dry; reduce in winter.
  • USDA Hardiness Zones: 10 to 11 outdoors; grow as a houseplant elsewhere.
  • Mature Size: Trailing vines typically 2 to 6 ft indoors with support.
  • Bloom Time: Spring to fall on established plants with good light.
  • Humidity: Moderate to high, about 40 to 60 percent.
  • Soil pH: Slightly acidic to neutral, about 6.0 to 7.0.

Ideal Uses

Train on a hoop or trellis for sculptural form, or let vines cascade from shelves and baskets to showcase the leaf color and flower clusters.

  • Focal Point: Blushing foliage and waxy blooms create a high-contrast accent.
  • Hanging Displays: Cascading habit suits baskets and high shelves.
  • Trellised Specimen: Compact spirals on hoops or ladders for tight spaces.
  • Collector Groupings: Pairs well with other fuzzy or dark-margined hoyas.
  • Low-Light Transitions: Tolerates bright shade better than many tropical vines.

Low Maintenance Care

Keep roots slightly snug, feed lightly in the warm season, and never remove spent peduncles to encourage reliable rebloom.

  • Watering: Deep soak and drain fully; err slightly dry to prevent root rot.
  • Pruning: Tip-trim for shape but do not cut off peduncles, which rebloom.
  • Fertilizing: Apply balanced or bloom-boosting fertilizer at half strength monthly in spring and summer.
  • Mulching: Not needed in pots; a thin decorative bark layer can slow evaporation.
  • Notes: Provide support for climbing, increase airflow to deter mealybugs, and repot only when rootbound.

Why Choose Burton's Wax Plant?

This selection combines dramatic foliage color shift with manageable care and fragrant umbels for year-round indoor interest.

  • Color-Shifting Leaves: Bronze to burgundy blush in strong light.
  • Fragrant Umbels: Star-shaped flowers on mature vines.
  • Waterwise: Succulent leaves tolerate brief dry-downs.
  • Space Efficient: Trails or trains vertically to fit any room.
  • Collector Appeal: Distinct look within the Hoya group.

Place in bright, indirect light with a chunky mix, allow partial dry-down between waterings, and keep peduncles intact for repeat bloom and rich foliage color.

I'm impressed! Simple but quite effective, affordable, properly designed
Color: Walnut Wood
I normally don't review items unless I am very impressed or feel I need to review to warn others of a particularly poor product. In this case I am highly impressed! Great price (compare to others made from plastic), well designed and quality construction. Simple but quite effective. Quality wood support, smooth sanded and beautifully finished.. The wood support is designed and created to properly support headphones without damage to the headband as a simple hook or peg design might I have a home recording studio and don't want some cheap shlopck headphone holder to damage my $300 headphones in any way. This support is very reasonably priced, and offers 2 ways to mount. Included double sided self adhesive or using a screw through the hole at the top of the metal bracket. Screw mounting hardware is included. The metal bar used is incredibly robust but is well suited aesthetically to complement the wood rest. I would recommend to my friends or anyone who wants a quality, I expensive, and affection headphones holder. Don't hesitate to purchase, you won't be sorry!

Awesome Quality great for my headphones
Color: Walnut Wood
I recently purchased the Wood Headphone & Headset Wall Mount in Black, and it has truly transformed my workspace! The space-saving design is a game-changer, instantly decluttering my desk and giving it a sleek, organized look. The curved bearing area is a thoughtful touch, ensuring that my headphone head beam remains in perfect condition without any risk of deformation or dents. The combination of aluminum alloy and wood not only gives it a modern aesthetic but also makes it incredibly sturdy and strong. I was initially skeptical about using double-sided tape, but the 3M tape provided proved to be exceptionally reliable. The mount is securely adhered to my wall, and I can trust that it will never break or fall. What I love most is its versatility – it accommodates all types of headphones, even the heaviest ones, and I've even used it to hang my handbags and backpacks. It's truly a versatile and practical solution for anyone looking to optimize their workspace. I highly recommend the Wood Headphone & Headset Wall Mount for its durability, functionality, and the aesthetic upgrade it brings to any room!

I mounted it with a drawer pull
Color: Walnut Wood, Color: Walnut Wood
Functionality: 5 , Design : 5 , Price: 3 I was looking for a way to store my headphones and not clutter my desk. I also wanted to make sure the padding doesn’t get deformed by hanging them on a hook. This wall mounted option met all my requirements, even though I feel it’s a bit pricey for just a small piece of wood and metal. It’s nicely finished and the shape will minimize leaving a dent in the padding of the headphones. I was worried that the color wouldn’t match my desk but luckily it was very close. Based on other reviews I didn’t trust the adhesive. Instead of drilling a hole into my desk I thought I would try attaching it with one of the drawer pulls. The hole of the wall hanger was just a millimeter too small for the screw of the drawer pull, but a quick mod with my power drill and it fits perfectly. I’m glad I didn’t drill into my desk, and if the position ends up inconvenient I can easily swap it to a different drawer. I would highly recommend this product.
