Hoya ‘Rosita’ (Splash) | 2-Inch

Hoya ‘Rosita’ (Splash) is a striking collector’s plant that combines the best traits of its parentage into one easy-to-grow Hoya. This beautiful hybrid produces elongated, succulent leaves dusted with silver splash, creating a shimmering effect that stands out on shelves, trellises, and hanging displays. Offered as a rooted cutting with new growth in a 2-inch pot, it is an excellent choice for both new Hoya growers and seasoned collectors looking to add unique foliage and fragrant blooms to their collection.

• Origin: Hoya ‘Rosita’ is a hybrid resulting from a cross between Hoya wayetii and Hoya sp. aff. burtoniae. The Splash form is a hand-selected seedling chosen for its enhanced silver flecking and ornamental foliage.

• Foliage: Features narrow, elongated, semi-succulent leaves with a thick, waxy texture that helps retain moisture. The leaves develop attractive silver splash variegation across the surface and can take on reddish tones when grown in bright light, adding year-round visual interest.

• Flowers: Produces clusters of small, star-shaped flowers with a fuzzy appearance typical of many Hoyas. Blooms are known for their pleasant fragrance and can last for several days to over a week under favorable conditions.

• Growth Rate: Moderate to fast-growing when provided with bright light, warmth, and consistent care. Vining stems make it ideal for trellising or allowing to trail naturally.

• Watering: Allow the potting mix to dry partially between waterings. The semi-succulent leaves store moisture, making the plant more forgiving than many tropical houseplants. Avoid keeping the soil constantly wet.

• Light Requirements: Thrives in bright, indirect light. For indoor growing, place approximately 12 inches beneath double Barrina T5 lights for about 14 hours per day to encourage vigorous growth and potential blooming.

• Temperature & Humidity: Prefers warm conditions around 85°F and enjoys elevated humidity levels of approximately 70–75%. While adaptable, higher humidity can promote faster growth and healthier foliage.
