Hoya pubicalyx silver splash 10cm

The Hoya pubicalyx ‘Silver Splash’ is a beautiful, fast-growing tropical Hoya prized for its elongated, glossy green leaves decorated with striking silver splashes and speckles. Each leaf develops its own unique pattern, creating a shimmering effect that makes this variety a favourite among Hoya enthusiasts.

Native to the Philippines, this vigorous Hoya produces long, elegant vines that can be trained around a trellis or allowed to cascade from hanging baskets and shelves. Mature plants can produce spectacular clusters of star-shaped, waxy flowers in shades of pink, red and deep burgundy, often accompanied by a delightful sweet fragrance. A hardy and rewarding addition to any indoor plant collection.

Care Tips

• Light: Bright, indirect light. Gentle morning sun can help encourage healthy growth and vibrant silver markings.

• Watering: Allow most of the potting mix to dry between waterings. Avoid keeping the roots constantly wet.

• Temperature: Thrives in warm conditions. Protect from cold draughts and Melbourne's winter chill.

• Fertiliser: Feed lightly during spring and summer to encourage healthy growth and flowering.

• Pet Friendly: Hoyas are generally considered non-toxic to cats and dogs.

Please Note: Silver splashing naturally varies between individual plants, with some leaves displaying heavier markings than others. New growth may emerge with reddish or bronze tones before maturing to green.
