Hoya 'Wilbur Graves'
Hoya 'Wilbur Graves' is a well-known cultivated form with thick green leaves heavily marked with silver splash variegation. The foliage is firm with a slightly cupped surface, and the dense silver mottling gives each leaf a distinctive pattern. Stems trail or climb when supported, forming a tidy, moderately vigorous plant. Flowers are soft pink with deeper centres, forming rounded clusters typical of the carnosa group.
The plant performs well in bright filtered light, which helps maintain its strong silver patterning. It prefers warm, stable conditions with a lightly drying cycle, and regular feeding during the warmer months supports steady vine growth and flowering. Its striking foliage makes it a popular choice for collectors and indoor growers.
