A hybrid of Hoya carnosa and Hoya serpens, its thick green leaves are scattered with silvery flecks that give each leaf its own unique pattern. As the plant matures, its slender vines create a full cascading display or can be trained around a small trellis for a more structured look. Mature plants can also produce clusters of fuzzy, star-shaped flowers with a sweet fragrance under the right conditions. Compact, collectible, and highly ornamental, Hoya ‘Mathilde’ brings classic Hoya charm to shelves, hanging planters, trellises, and indoor plant collections.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eKey Features:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSmall silver-splashed foliage – rounded green leaves feature delicate silver flecks and markings that make every leaf unique.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCompact vining habit – produces slender vines that can trail naturally or be trained around a small trellis.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFragrant blooms – mature plants can produce clusters of fuzzy, waxy, star-shaped flowers with a sweet fragrance.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCollector favorite – prized for its compact foliage, attractive silver splash, and parentage from Hoya carnosa and Hoya serpens.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCare Guide:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLight: Prefers bright, indirect light to maintain healthy growth, attractive silver markings, and encourage flowering.
