Hoya krohniana 'Eskimo' is a stunning, low-maintenance Hoya variety with silver-flecked leaves. Here are three key tips to keep it thriving:
-
Bright, Indirect Light – This Hoya prefers bright, indirect light to maintain its silver variegation. Too much direct sun can scorch the leaves, while low light may slow growth and reduce variegation.
-
Well-Draining Soil & Careful Watering – Use a chunky, well-draining mix (such as orchid bark, perlite, and peat). Water when the soil is nearly dry, as Hoyas are epiphytic and don’t like soggy roots.
-
High Humidity & Warmth – Keep temperatures between 65–80°F and humidity above 50%. While it can tolerate average indoor humidity, it thrives in higher humidity, which encourages healthy growth and flowering
