The foliage is long and narrow, with prominent veins. The accepted name is \u003cem\u003eHoya blashernaezii\u003c\/em\u003e ssp. \u003cem\u003esiariae\u003c\/em\u003e. The fragrance is reported inconsistently. A rewarding houseplant with simple care requirements. Pale pink umbels appear on mature plants. Fragrance varies from one batch to another.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFoliage and growth.\u003c\/strong\u003e The leaves are green, ranging from long and lanceolate to smaller and elliptic on young shoots, with prominent veins. In good light, the foliage may develop pigmentation; this coloration is not variegation. The plant may be considered a “cactus hoya”: it requires less frequent watering and does not store a large amount of water in its foliage. The buds are sensitive to temperature and may drop after significant temperature fluctuations or exposure to cold drafts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFlowers and fragrance.\u003c\/strong\u003e The 'Pink' selection is sold for its flowers, which open pale pink and almost transparent, then deepen to a more saturated pink. The shade also depends on growing conditions; the 'Red' form is also in circulation. The corolla reflexes at the tip, leaving a small, umbrella-like cup. The flowers remain open for a short time, often two to three days. In cultivation, flowering may be frequent when light levels are good, but it is not guaranteed in every season. Fragrance is retained as a commercial trait; some growers describe it as subtle, while others do not perceive it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBotanical identity and origin.\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cem\u003eHoya siariae\u003c\/em\u003e Kloppenb. \u003cem\u003esiariae\u003c\/em\u003e (Kloppenb.) Kloppenb., 2014. The species \u003cem\u003eHoya blashernaezii\u003c\/em\u003e was published in 1999. The name \u003cem\u003esiariae\u003c\/em\u003e honors Dr. Simeona V. Siar, not a locality. The reference material was collected in the Bicol region of Luzon. The accepted range is the Philippines. 'Pink' remains a color label.
