The name refers to an accepted botanical species, not a cultivar, and the plant is imported. In nature, the species has a broad distribution, from Thailand to Malesia. Under good growing conditions, it can become a large plant, suitable for training on a sturdy support.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFoliage and growth.\u003c\/strong\u003e The leaves are smooth, glossy, relatively thin, and less succulent than those of many other Hoya. The plant produces long shoots and has vigorous vine-like growth; as it matures, it needs space and a solid support. Its thinner foliage should not be treated like that of a highly succulent species, and the substrate should not be kept compact or waterlogged.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFlowers and fragrance.\u003c\/strong\u003e The flowers are star-shaped and pubescent, with a yellow corolla and a white corona marked purple in the center. Mature inflorescences can become much larger than those of \u003cem\u003eHoya carnosa\u003c\/em\u003e. The flowers are fragrant; one horticultural source describes the scent as spicy, while analysis of the volatile compounds confirms a complex aromatic profile. The intensity and precise fragrance notes may vary, so they cannot be guaranteed for every flowering.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBotanical identity and origin.\u003c\/strong\u003e The accepted name is \u003cem\u003eHoya coriacea\u003c\/em\u003e Blume, published in 1827. The commercial origin, Taiwan, of this batch should not be confused with the species’ natural distribution.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSubstrate:\u003c\/strong\u003e use an airy, well-draining mix suitable for epiphytic species.
