Hoya obovata 'Splash'

Pot size: 9cm

Hoya obovata 'Splash' brings bold shape and a little shimmer to your plant collection. Its thick, rounded green leaves are scattered with silvery splashes, with the markings varying naturally from leaf to leaf. As it grows, its long vines can be trained around a support or allowed to trail from a shelf.

With its chunky foliage and relaxed watering needs, this charming Hoya is a lovely choice for anyone who enjoys striking leaves without a demanding care routine.

Care Guide

Light: Give bright, indirect light. Gentle morning sunshine can suit it, but protect the leaves from harsh midday sun.

Water: Let the potting mix dry out substantially before watering thoroughly. Allow excess water to drain away and never leave the pot sitting in water. Reduce watering in winter.

Humidity: Typical household humidity is usually suitable. Moderate humidity and good airflow can support healthy growth.

Temperature: Keep in a warm spot, ideally 18–27°C, away from cold draughts and sudden temperature changes.

Feeding: Apply a balanced houseplant fertiliser at half strength every 4–6 weeks during spring and summer.

Soil: Choose a chunky, free-draining mix with orchid bark and perlite, and use a pot with drainage holes.
