Hoya pubicalyx silver moon

Hoya pubicalyx ‘Silver Moon’ — if regular Hoyas are beautiful, Silver Moon is the one that makes other Hoyas jealous. The dark, glossy green leaves are scattered with silver flecks that look like someone shook a metallic brush across each one — no two leaves quite the same.

Native to the Philippines, pubicalyx is one of the more generous-flowering Hoyas, producing ball-shaped clusters of deep burgundy-red blooms with a sweet chocolate-vanilla fragrance that intensifies in the evenings. It’s a fast grower by Hoya standards, vines readily, and rewards even moderately good care with regular blooms. Whether you’re new to Hoyas or deep in a collection, Silver Moon earns its place.
