The foliage is compact, with small, almost round, firm leaves, often scattered with silver splashes. The growth habit is trailing or climbing and combines the robustness of \u003cem\u003eHoya carnosa\u003c\/em\u003e with the smaller size inherited from \u003cem\u003eHoya serpens\u003c\/em\u003e. Under good growing conditions, the plant produces umbels of small, cream-white to pale pink, finely pubescent flowers with a sweet fragrance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eName and parentage.\u003c\/strong\u003e The established horticultural name is \u003cem\u003eHoya carnosa\u003c\/em\u003e 'Mathilde'. The documented parentage is \u003cem\u003eHoya carnosa\u003c\/em\u003e x \u003cem\u003eHoya serpens\u003c\/em\u003e, with \u003cem\u003eHoya carnosa\u003c\/em\u003e as the maternal parent. The hybrid appeared in the summer of 1994 through uncontrolled pollination in Emilio Begine's garden. Both parent species are botanically accepted. The hybrid formula in the title describes its origin, not a spontaneous species. Splash is not a separate cultivar; it only describes the density of the silver markings, which vary naturally.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFoliage and growth.\u003c\/strong\u003e The leaves are small, fleshy, almost round to oval, green, and densely arranged on thin vines. The silver splash markings vary in size and distribution and are not equivalent to variegation. A single specimen may simultaneously produce more heavily marked leaves and predominantly green leaves. Vine length and splash density vary from one specimen to another.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFlowers and fragrance.\u003c\/strong\u003e The flowers are small, star-shaped, and finely pubescent, ranging from cream-white to pale pink, and grouped in umbels. The fragrance is sweet and is reported to be easier to detect in the evening. The number of flowers, color, and fragrance intensity may vary depending on the plant's maturity and growing conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe ceramic pot is not included in the price.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGrowing medium:\u003c\/strong\u003e use an airy, well-draining mix suitable for epiphytic species.
