Hoya Krohniana 'Super Silver' 4" Pot

The Hoya krohniana 'Super Silver' is a striking collector’s Hoya known for its compact heart-shaped leaves covered almost entirely in shimmering silver variegation. This rare and sought-after variety is prized for its stunning foliage and ability to produce clusters of sweetly scented, star-shaped flowers. Its small size and vining growth habit make it ideal for windowsills, shelves, and hanging planters.

Hoya krohniana 'Super Silver' Care Tips:

1. Light:

Thrives in bright, indirect light. Too much direct sun can scorch its delicate leaves, while too little light may reduce variegation and growth.

2. Soil:

Use a chunky, well-draining mix made from coco coir, orchid bark, perlite, and a bit of charcoal. Avoid peat moss to prevent compaction and over-retention of moisture.

3. Watering:

Allow the top 1–2 inches of soil to dry between waterings. Water less frequently in cooler months. Do not let the plant sit in water.

4. Humidity:

Prefers higher humidity (above 60%) but is adaptable to average indoor conditions. Consider using a humidifier or pebble tray if needed.

5. Temperature:

Maintain indoor temperatures between 65–85°F (18–29°C). Protect from drafts or sudden temperature changes.

6. Fertilizer:

Feed monthly during the growing season with a diluted, balanced fertilizer or a formula designed for Hoyas.

7. Growth Habit:

Slow to moderate grower. Great for small spaces and will trail or climb if given support.

8. Pet Safety:

Non-toxic to pets, though it’s best to prevent chewing or ingestion of any houseplants.
