Hoya pubicalyx ‘Silver Splash’

Light:

• Prefers bright, indirect light to bring out strong silver variegation.

• Can tolerate some gentle morning or late afternoon sun.

Water:

• Allow the top 1–2 inches of soil to dry before watering.

• Avoid letting roots sit in water, as Hoyas are prone to rot.

Soil:

• Thrives in a chunky, well-draining mix (orchid bark, perlite, coco chips, and peat/coco coir).

• Good aeration around roots is essential.

Feeding:

• Use a balanced water-soluble fertilizer every 4 weeks during active growth.

• A phosphorus-rich feed can help promote blooms.

Pruning:

• Trim vines to manage length or encourage bushier growth.

• Never cut peduncles (flower spurs), as blooms return from the same points.

General Tips:

• One of the easiest Hoyas to grow and flower.

• Can be trained up a trellis or left to trail from a hanging basket.

• Wipe leaves to keep them glossy and highlight the silver splashes.
