Know before you buy
This plant thrives in bright, indirect light. Placing it near an east-facing window or a few feet back from a south-facing window will provide the intensity it needs to keep its silver splashes vibrant without scorching the leaves.
No, the Hoya 'Silver Splash' is not considered pet-safe. It is best kept in a location that is inaccessible to curious pets, such as a high shelf or a hanging planter.
The 'Silver Splash' prefers moderate watering. Allow the top two inches of soil to dry out completely between waterings, as Hoya roots are sensitive to sitting in excess moisture.
While it appreciates medium humidity, it is quite adaptable to standard household conditions. If your home is particularly dry, you can group it with other plants or place it near a humidifier to encourage faster growth.
Because of its vining nature, this plant looks excellent in a hanging basket or placed on a high shelf where the stems can trail downward. You can also train the vines to climb a small trellis or moss pole if you prefer a more vertical display.
