Hoya glabra (Silver)

Unrooted cutting of Hoya glabra (Silver).
One node, one or two leaves.

Hoya glabra (Silver) is a heavily silvered form of Hoya glabra, an accepted Hoya species native to Sumatra and northern to northwestern Borneo.

The species was formally published in 1908 and grows naturally as an epiphyte in wet tropical forest.

This silver form is especially striking for its broad, elongated leaves covered with extensive pale silver coloration. Green may remain as irregular flecks, patches, or margins, and the amount of silver can vary considerably from leaf to leaf.

Please note that the amount and pattern of silver on future growth cannot be guaranteed. Individual leaves may naturally vary from heavily silvered to more green or splashy.
