Hoya sipitangensis is an easy hoya to grow. It grows fast and starts flowering as a very young plant and then flowers almost continuously. So this is one that I definitely recommend to the beginner! I have my plant in a hanging basket in a window facing
south and it grows like crazy there. It grabs any hoya nearby so I often
have to sort out entangled branches. It tolerates drought but grows best
if it gets water regularly. |

| The leaves are medium green, glabrous and they have some silver flecks. To feel the scent of the flowers you have to put your nose really close. Hoya sipitangensis reminds very much of Hoya walliniana. By just looking at the foliage it is hard to tell the difference between those two. | ||
