Hoya lacunosa 'Laos Full Splash' Care & Details
Origin: Hoya lacunosa is a species native to Southeast Asia. The 'Laos Full Splash' form is a cultivated selection prized for its exceptionally heavy silver splash. The species was first described by botanist Carl Ludwig Blume in 1826. Scientific reference: Blume, C.L. (1826), Bijdragen tot de Flora van Nederlandsch Indië.
Leaves: Small, narrow leaves covered with a heavy silver splash. New growth can appear almost translucent before maturing, and the foliage may develop attractive pink to purple sun-stressed coloration under bright light. Leaves are relatively thin compared to many thicker-leaved Hoyas.
Flowers: Produces clusters of fuzzy, star-shaped white to cream-colored flowers with yellow centers. Like many Hoya lacunosa varieties, the blooms are known for their sweet, perfume-like fragrance, especially in the evening. Flowers are small but produced in clusters that create an impressive display and can last for several days.
Growth Rate: Fast-growing when provided with bright light, warmth, and consistent care.
Watering: Allow the potting mix to approach dryness before watering thoroughly. Avoid keeping the roots constantly wet.
Light: Thrives in bright indirect light. This plant has performed well approximately 8 inches beneath double Barrina T5 lights for 14 hours per day. Brighter conditions can enhance splash and encourage pink-purple sun stress coloration.
Ideal Temperature & Humidity: Prefers temperatures around 75°F with humidity levels of 60–65%.
General Hoya Care: Use a chunky, well-draining mix, provide good airflow, avoid overwatering, and fertilize lightly during active growth. For detailed care instructions, visit: https://hoyatreasures.com/pages/caring-for-hoya
