What type of compost do I need for re-potting my wax flower?

Our Advice:

Hoya plants need a moist but free-draining soil so use peat-based multi-purpose compost with added perlite or vermiculite. Only repot the plant when it is totally pot bound and never repot when the flowers or flower buds can be seen, wait until after flowering.
