Hoya multiflora 'Silver Splash' Ø8cm

Hoya multiflora 'Silver Splash' is a tropical plant with dark green leaves adorned with silver splashes and unique shooting star-shaped flowers in creamy white with yellow tips. It has a compact, semi-shrubby habit and blooms more readily than most other Hoya species. Non-toxic plant. Care instructions Caring for Hoya multiflora 'Silver Splash' is straightforward, as the plant is recognised for its adaptability to indoor conditions and is a great fit even for beginners. Ideal light is strong indirect light - a spot 1-2 metres from an east or west-facing window is perfect. The plant tolerates medium light, but in insufficient light conditions it will produce fewer flowers and the silver spots will be less pronounced. Intense direct light can burn the leaves. Watering should be done when the top 2-3 cm of substrate have dried - Hoyas prefer wet-dry cycles rather than constantly moist substrate. In winter, reduce watering frequency. It is essential that the pot has excellent drainage - standing water at root level is the primary cause of death in Hoyas. The ideal substrate is an airy mix: pine bark, perlite, and peat in proportions of 2:1:1, or a special epiphyte substrate. Optimal air humidity is 50-70%, though the plant adapts to lower humidity. The ideal temperature is between 18-28°C, with an absolute minimum of 12°C. Fertilisation is done monthly during the growth period (April-September) with a diluted balanced fertiliser. Mind the peduncles : after flowers drop, do not cut the peduncles (spurs) - Hoya multiflora will rebloom on the same peduncles, producing new flower clusters repeatedly.
