Sun: Direct - Indirect

Provide ample natural light, but avoid placing the plant in harsh, direct sunlight. Filtered sunlight through curtains or blinds is ideal.

Light: Medium - Bright

Hoya Pubicalyx Silver Splash plant in a location with bright, indirect sunlight. Avoid direct sunlight exposure, as it can scorch the leaves.

Water: When Mostly dry

Water moderately, allowing the soil to dry slightly between waterings. Avoid overwatering, as Hoyas are susceptible to root rot. Ensure proper drainage to prevent waterlogging.

Additionally, provide extra humidity during the blooming season to support the development of beautiful, fragrant flowers.
