Hoya macrophylla ‘Snow Queen’

Name: Hoya macrophylla Blume ‘Snow Queen’

Synonyms: Hoya latifolia ‘Snow Queen’ is also used in horticultural practice.

Etymology: The genus name Hoya was given by Robert Brown in honor of the English gardener Thomas Hoy. The epithet macrophylla means “large-leaved.” ‘Snow Queen’ is a horticultural cultivar name.

First description: The species was described in 1827 by Carl Ludwig Blume.

Origin / Habitat: Vietnam and Western Malesia to the Lesser Sunda Islands, in moist tropical forests. It grows epiphytically.

Description & Care: Climbing hoya with large, fleshy leaves; ‘Snow Queen’ is distinguished by striking light variegation. We cultivate it in bright to very bright light, warm conditions, with good air circulation and consistent but not excessive moisture. The substrate may dry out slightly between waterings. We keep it at approximately 18–28 °C.
