Hoya latifolia 'MRH' Silver

'MRH' is one of the best-known silver forms of Hoya latifolia. The broad leaves are boldly painted with white-silver splash over deep green, and new stems often show a red tone. As a latifolia it has thick, substantial leaves that hold their pattern well as the plant matures.

Care

• Light: bright, indirect light; latifolia types colour up and hold their silver best with plenty of light
• Water: water thoroughly, then let the mix dry about halfway — the large, thick leaves store water
• Mix: very chunky and airy: orchid bark, perlite and coco chips

After unboxing
