Hello, my dearest Hoya leaf lovers! Have you ever been puzzled by that splash on your beloved plants?
If you get a hoya plant that already has these white spots, though, it's probably not a pest. That would be genetic.
It's thought that the reason for splashing on Hoya leaves is a genetic mutation that stops the plant from producing chlorophyll regularly. This makes the leaves look like they have spots or specks. Some experts also say that environmental factors, including light, temperature, and the nutrients it gets, can play a part.
