Hoya 'Mathilde Splash'
Wax Plant
🚚 Free UK shipping on orders over £50 🪴
Discover the beauty of Hoya 'Mathilde Splash' – a rarely seen and highly sought-after wax plant known for its round, deep-green leaves dusted with delicate silver speckles. This elegant variety combines sculptural form with low-maintenance care, making it perfect for collectors and houseplant enthusiasts alike.
The Hoya genus was named after Thomas Hoy, gardener to the Duke of Northumberland. Native to tropical Asia, Hoyas are prized for their glossy foliage and clusters of fragrant, star-shaped flowers that appear under the right growing conditions.
Hoya Mathilde can be trained to climb around supports or left to trail gracefully from shelves or hanging planters. Water only when the top two inches of soil are dry, and place in bright, indirect light to encourage strong growth. Feed every two weeks in spring and summer with a balanced liquid fertiliser.

Care Instructions
Light
Place in bright, indirect light. A little gentle morning or evening sun can encourage flowering, but avoid prolonged harsh midday sun, which may scorch the leaves.
Water
Water thoroughly, then allow the top few centimetres of compost to dry before watering again. This plant stores moisture in its fleshy leaves and prefers to dry slightly between waterings. Reduce watering during winter.
Food
Feed once a month during spring and summer with a quality liquid houseplant fertiliser. Regular feeding encourages healthy growth, strong roots and more reliable flowering.
Humidity
This plant is happy in average household humidity but appreciates slightly higher humidity where possible. Good air circulation is equally important for healthy growth. Avoid excessive misting.
