Leaf characteristics:
- Shape: Ovate with a distinct pointed tip, giving it a sharp and elegant appearance.
- Color: A silvery-green base with a muted greyish hue, sunstressing to a beautiful pink under higher light conditions.
- Texture: Smooth with noticeable ribs running along the surface, adding dimension and character to the leaves.
- Size: Medium-sized, proportionate leaves that maintain a consistent size throughout the plant.
- Veining: Strongly defined veins with ribbing that accentuates the leaf texture.
- Pattern: A subtle and uniform silver tone with occasional hints of blush when exposed to strong light.
❀
- Vining style: trailing.
- Ease of propagation: easy to root, better to wait for the aerial roots to appear on the vine before taking a cutting.
Care
- Lighting Needs: Barrina, 14 hours, one foot away. I noticed leaves may get a pinkish blush.
- Watering: as the soil dries.
- Humidity and Temperature: all hoyas are in the tent, with the highest temperature around 80F and the lowest around 68F.
The average humidity in the tents is 60%. - Soil Mix: a mix of tree fern, pumice, and zeolite.
Disclaimer: The appearance of Hoya Lacunosa varieties can vary greatly depending on factors like light (amount and quality), temperature, humidity, the original plant, fertilizer, and care. What I describe here is based on my own experiences and observations under my specific conditions. Your results may differ!
