  FEATURES

  Hoya rangsan ‘Fresh Rain’ is another hoya grown for its incredible foliar splashing. It sends out vines of lanceolate, medium green leaves with random cream colored splotches or “splashing” caused by air getting trapped in between the leaves. This splashing on the patterning of fresh rain. This hoya is eager to bloom, sending out clusters of perfect, five-petaled pale wax flowers. When your ‘Fresh Rain’ is done blooming, however, leave the spent flower peduncles in place, as it has been known to rebloom on old peduncles. This hoya will perform best in bright, indirect light and if allowed to dry out in between waterings.

  Maintenance Notes: 

  • For optimal performance, keep your Hoya at 60-85°F (15-29°C). 
  • Hoyas perform best in bright, indirect light or filtered sunlight. They will tolerate lower light conditions, but will not grow as vigorously or show their colors as vibrantly. Some early morning or late evening sunlight may be tolerated and cause some sought-after “blushing” to appear, but monitor your Hoya for leaf burning if it is in direct sun. 
  • Hoyas are generally adaptable to ambient household humidity, but they do appreciate higher humidity. You can help get humidity above 60% by using a humidifier, misting your Hoya, or keeping it on a pebble tray. 
  • Hoyas prefer to dry out in between waterings. As such, water your Hoya thoroughly when the top 1-2 inches of soil feels dry. They can tolerate periods of drought, and overwatering them will cause more harm than underwatering.
  • Feed your Hoya once per month at half strength when it is actively growing. Reduce frequency of fertilization in the winter months. If no new leaves are growing, it does not need to be fertilized.
  • Protect furniture when watering & fertilizing.
  • When repotting your Hoya, use a chunky all-purpose potting mix, with additional orchid bark and perlite added, to ensure your Hoya has good drainage and plenty of nutrients.
  • Hoyas are vines, capable of trailing or climbing. If you’d like it to climb, provide it with structure, such as a moss pole, trellis, stakes, or other structure.
