Rare Laotian Hoya with strongly fragrant white flowers, tolerates cooler temperatures

Hoya vangviengiensis is named after its discovery site in Vang Vieng, Laos, where it was described in 2010. The species was also found in Yunnan Province, China, in 2015. The plant resembles Hoya carnosa and has clear sap. In nature, it grows epiphytically on smaller moss-covered branches in shady limestone areas.

The species' preference for cool and humid conditions makes it a hardy plant that tolerates cooler temperatures. Hoya vangviengiensis produces beautiful white flowers with a strong fragrance that are long-lasting, blooming for over a week. A must-have for collectors of rare Hoya species.
