Hoya lacunosa x Hoya obscura

cultivar

Hoya lacunosa x Hoya obscura is a real nice cultivar. It flowers all the time with a lots of fragrant flowers. The colour of the flowers depend on how much sun they are exposed to. When the clusters are exposed to sunlight the flowers turn pink.

The leaves vary a lot in size (6-11 cm long and 2-3 cm wide). They look just like a mix of Hoya lacunosa and Hoya obscura. This is definately a hoya well worth growing. It grows fast and has no special needs, just perfect for the beginner.
