Care Essentials
Get to Know Your Hoya Mathilde

Light
medium to bright indirect
Most comfortable in medium to bright indirect light. Avoid prolonged direct sun exposure.
💡 Grow lights: Thrives under artificial grow lights (LED or fluorescent, 10-12 hours/day). A great option if your space lacks natural light.
Watering
every 7-10 days
Water when the top 1-2 inches of soil feel dry. Adjust with the seasons — less in winter, more in summer.
Humidity & Temperature
Not fussy about humidity. Handles average indoor conditions without issue.
Standard room temperature (60-80°F / 15-27°C) is perfect. Avoid cold drafts and sudden temperature swings.
Soil
Standard well-draining potting mix works well. Add perlite for extra drainage if you tend to overwater.

Small pots with dense root systems dry out completely causing 'dry rot' from desiccation; roots die from lack of moisture then turn yellow when watered
Cause
Small pots with dense root systems dry out completely causing 'dry rot' from desiccation; roots die from lack of moisture then turn yellow when watered
Solutions
- Water 1-2 times per week when top 1-2 inches are dry
- Check leaf turgor daily - soft leaves indicate underwatering
- Repot into slightly larger pot if roots are densely packed
- Soak pot in water 15 minutes if soil has pulled away from edges
- Remove completely yellowed leaves to redirect energy
Prevention
Monitor leaf turgor as early warning; water before soil completely dries; use pot size appropriate for root mass; check soil moisture 2-3 times weekly
