Know before you buy
The term 'splash' refers to the unique, silvery-white speckling found on the leaves. This variegation is a natural genetic trait that gives the plant a distinct, textured appearance compared to standard green varieties.
This Hoya prefers bright, indirect light. Placing it near an east-facing window or a few feet away from a south-facing window is ideal to encourage healthy growth and potential flowering.
We recommend waiting at least one week before repotting. This rest period allows the plant to acclimate to your home's specific environment, reducing the risk of transplant shock.
No, the Hoya Mathilde is toxic to pets if ingested. It is best to keep this plant on a high shelf or in a room that your pets cannot access.
The best way to gauge watering is to check the soil moisture; wait until the soil is completely dry before watering again. On average, this will be about once a week, but you should adjust based on your home's humidity and temperature.
While it is relatively low-maintenance, it is categorized as an intermediate plant. It requires a bit more attention to light and watering consistency than a standard pothos or snake plant, making it a great step up for those looking to expand their collection.
