I have a few different plants of Hoya archboldiana, but none of them have flowered yet so a picture I took at a hoya meeting this year is dispalyed above. The leaves are quite big, up to 20 cm long, dark green and thick. It will in time need a big, steady support. This species requires a lot of light, warmth and water to thrive.
