Hoya carnosa ‘Freckles’ (Silver Splash) D6

Hoya carnosa 'Freckles' is a cultivar with silver splash on the classic foliage of Hoya carnosa. The markings are called splash, not variegation. Their intensity and distribution vary from one leaf to another and from one shoot to another. It has a climbing habit and vigorous growth. The flowers are typical of the species: waxy, pink-and-white, fragrant umbels, characteristic of this scented Hoya. Its foliage and flowers make it a welcoming choice for apartments.

Foliage and splash. The leaves are thick, glossy, and green, sprinkled with silver dots or patches. In bright light, the foliage may become lighter.

Flowers and fragrance. The flowers appear in umbels and have pink-and-white corollas with a darker corona. They are fragrant. Flowering depends on the plant's maturity and growing conditions.

Potting mix: use an airy, well-draining mix suitable for epiphytic species. We recommend the professional potting mix for Hoya and Anthurium - SG Mix.
