In collections, 'Kaimuki' designates a cross between \u003cem\u003eHoya macgillivrayi\u003c\/em\u003e and \u003cem\u003eHoya archboldiana\u003c\/em\u003e, attributed to Hawaiian grower Michael Miyashiro; 'Red' indicates the form with dark red flowers. The young foliage is elongated, glossy, dark green, and without splash. Under good growing conditions, the umbels bear large, cup-shaped, waxy flowers. Flowering depends on the plant's maturity and growing conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFoliage and growth.\u003c\/strong\u003e The leaves are opposite, glossy, dark green, without splash or variegation. In young plants, the leaf blade is narrow and lance-shaped; horticultural sources describe the adult leaves as broader, with a prominent midrib and sometimes small indentations along it. The growth habit is climbing: the long vines should be trained onto a support. New growth may be thinner and becomes denser as the tissue hardens.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFlowers and fragrance.\u003c\/strong\u003e The flowers are large, cup-shaped, and burgundy-red, with a lighter corona for contrast. The color may vary from pink-magenta to dark red, depending on cultivation. Collection sources report flowers measuring approximately 6–7.5 cm and lasting up to two weeks. The flowers are fragrant; the scent is described as subtle and more noticeable in the evening.
