Hoya albida (4″ pot)

This Hoya was fairly recently published in 2013 by Kloppenburg, Cajano & Carandang. The handsome leaves are glabrous and medium green with visible white veins. It is a very pretty foliage plant. 

The flowers are small but they are unique and interesting. Albida means “white-ish”. The flowers can be off-white to light yellow to pale pink. Sometimes the flowers even appeared to be clear and almost translucent.

This species has been a very good bloomer for me. It continues to bloom from the same umbel non-stop. Very rarely offered species that not many collectors have yet.
This Hoya is native to The Philippines and it needs to be protected well from cold temperatures. 

We grow our Hoyas outside in S. FL in filtered light, we water only when dry, and grow them in small containers.
