Hoya Pubicalyx ‘Splash’ Vining Plant

A hardy, thick-leafed Hoya with silver-splashed dark green leaves that trail and vine beautifully — and blooms gorgeous ball-shaped flower clusters once it matures.

The Hoya Pubicalyx 'Splash' is a semi-succulent perennial with glossy, dark green leaves splashed with silver markings that give it a distinctive, painted quality. It trails and vines with lush waxy foliage, needs bright light and drying between waterings, and rewards patient growers with stunning ball-shaped flower clusters. Air-purifying and beginner-friendly. A perfect plant for novice houseplant owners who want something beautiful and low-maintenance.

What I love about it

The Pubicalyx Splash is the Hoya for people who want something with a little more visual interest than a standard green trailer. The silver splash markings on the dark green leaves are distinctive and beautiful — they catch the light in a way that makes the plant look almost iridescent. It's hardy, tolerates some neglect, and the ball-shaped flower clusters that appear on mature plants are genuinely spectacular. Air-purifying, long-lived, and endlessly rewarding.
