Hoya verticillata ‘silver heart’

Hoya verticillata 'silver heart’ has beautiful, silver glossy leaves which are slightly longer than they are wide, giving a round-ish shape. GENERAL CARE Hoya grow best in bright, indirect light. Water only when the soil is completely dry as hoyas prefer a good wet/dry cycle and do not like being consistently moist. Hoyas also prefer to be “pot-bound” so only repot when necessary and pot in a tight pot, only slightly large in size to the one it is currently in. Plant in well-draining potting soil with added perlite and bark for good drainage. Native to tropical/sub-tropical regions in Eastern Asia and Australia, hoya are considered a semi-epiphytic plant, meaning they begin their lives with roots in the soil, then use adventitious roots along their stems to climb nearby trees, anchoring for support along the way. BONUS: Hoyas are pet friendly and have fragrant flowers! BEFORE PURCHASING Please Note: The plant in the picture is SIMILAR to the one you will receive.
