The leaves are broad, elliptical, waxy, with prominent venation. 'Albomarginata' describes the position of the variegation, not a form with internal patterning. It produces umbels of small, star-shaped flowers, white-pink to pale pink, usually fragrant in the evening. Commercial imports come from Taiwan; the species' native range is elsewhere.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFoliage and growth.\u003c\/strong\u003e The foliage is large, elliptical, thick, with clear veins that segment the leaf blade. The variegation is marginal: the cream-white tissue along the edge contains less chlorophyll than the green center. The width and regularity of the margin vary between leaves. On new growth or under light or temperature stress, the pale areas may temporarily turn pink. The plant has a vining habit; it can be trained onto a support or left trailing. This lot contains several rooted cuttings per pot, and the vine tips have been trimmed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFlowers and fragrance.\u003c\/strong\u003e The flowers are small, star-shaped, and grouped in umbels. Horticultural sources describe them as white-cream to pale pink, often with a more noticeable fragrance at night. The number of flowers per umbel and their shades may vary. Flowering is not guaranteed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBotanical identity and origin.\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cem\u003eHoya macrophylla\u003c\/em\u003e Blume is the accepted name, published in 1826–1827. \u003cem\u003eHoya browniana\u003c\/em\u003e is a synonym of this species. \u003cem\u003eHoya clandestina\u003c\/em\u003e is no longer treated as a synonym here: in the current treatment, it is placed under \u003cem\u003eHoya latifolia\u003c\/em\u003e. \u003cem\u003eHoya macrophylla\u003c\/em\u003e Wight is an illegitimate homonym, separate from the name published by Blume.
