Variant

Hoya Parasitica Splash, formerly known as Hoya parasitica ‘Heart Leaf,’ and also commonly referred to as Hoya verticillata, is a charming and visually appealing variety of Hoya. This plant is cherished for its unique foliage and its ability to adapt to a variety of indoor environments. The leaves are heart-shaped, medium-sized, ribbed with prominent veins, and feature a glossy texture with a distinctive splashed variegation of silvery or white spots, which give it the 'Splash' designation. This variegation makes each leaf appear as though it has been speckled with paint, adding a decorative element to any space. Hoya parasitica 'Splash' blooms with clusters of small, star-shaped flowers that are not only beautiful but also emit a delightful fragrance, enhancing its appeal as a houseplant.

What to expect

The plant comes with a default nursery pot. The nursery pot is usually 0.5" - 1" smaller than stated to fit into the same size decorative pot. Washable Paper Planter Bags are sold separately.

As with all living things, no two plants are alike. There is some natural variation in size, shape, and characteristics.

Care Guide

How to take care of Hoya Parasitica Splash

Sun: Indirect

Hoya Parasitica Splash should not be in a position to see the sun directly, although early morning or late evening sun is fine. Filtered sunlight through a sheer curtain is best and most homes are comprised primarily of indirect sunlight. The best spot for them is where they do not see the sun during the majority of the day but still get bright, indirect light.

Light: Bright

Hoya Parasitica Splash will do best in bright light. A nice bright place inside your home would be on the window sill or a stool that is right next to a window, either with or without blinds, depending on if the plant can handle sun. Remember that plants will grow based on how much light they receive.

Water: When half dry

Hoya Parasitica Splash needs to be watered when the top half of the soil is dry to the touch. That usually takes about 1 week in an average home environment. It will vary depending on the time of year, your environment and lighting conditions, but it's always safer to underwater or give the soil a check before you water again. Expect to water more often in brighter light and less often in lower light.

Humidity: Medium

Hoya Parasitica Splash will do well in average humidity environments but will appreciate a little bit of humidity if provided, give them a mist daily or get a humidifier.

Pet Friendly

You can feel comfortable having Hoya Parasitica Splash around your home in the potential case where your pet feels like nibbling on it. However, we typically recommend keeping your pets from eating any of your houseplants.

Plant Story

Introducing the Hoya Parasitica Splash, a charming and elegant houseplant that not only adds a lush, tropical feel to your indoor environment but also symbolizes enduring beauty, the joy of subtle details, and the interconnectedness of life.

The Hoya Parasitica Splash, part of the diverse Hoya family, is renowned for its attractive foliage. Each leaf is thick and waxy, showcasing a deep green colour with a distinctive "splash" of silvery or white variegation that seems to mimic water droplets. This variegation adds a unique texture and visual interest to the plant, making it a captivating addition to any indoor garden.

To care for your Hoya Parasitica Splash, provide it with bright, indirect light. This plant enjoys the warmth and brightness of sunlight but should be protected from the harsh direct rays that can scorch its delicate leaves. The need for indirect light is a reminder that growth often flourishes under gentle, nurturing conditions.

Watering the Hoya Parasitica Splash should be done with care. Allow the soil to almost completely dry out between waterings, as Hoyas are susceptible to root rot if overwatered. This teaches us the importance of balance and moderation—providing just enough resources to sustain life without overindulgence.

Hoyas are also known for their stunning floral displays. The Hoya Parasitica Splash produces clusters of star-shaped flowers that are not only beautiful but also fragrant. These blooms are a testament to the plant's ability to thrive when given proper care and a favourable environment.

As your Hoya Parasitica Splash grows and matures, it becomes not just a plant but a living symbol of the beauty found in the details and the joy of nurturing life. It's a reminder of the interconnectedness of our world and the subtle yet profound beauty that exists within it.

Welcome the Hoya Parasitica Splash into your home, and let it serve as a celebration of life's intricate beauty, the importance of caring attention, and the joy of watching something thrive under your care. It's not just a plant; it's an embodiment of the quiet, enduring beauty that enriches our lives.
