Hoya Danumensis

In nature this Hoya can only be found in the tiny tropical country of Sabah on the island of Borneo. Here it lives as an epiphyte high up in the trees. Hoya danumensis has only recently been recognised as a separate species, and was formerly considered to be Hoya wallichii. The main differences are that Hoya danumensis is particularly easier to grow and the shape and colour of the flowers are slightly different. This tropical species stands out with its remarkably large flowers, which grow in bunches called ‘peduncles’. Late at night these flowers can emit a faint but pleasant smell. When the plant is not flowering, it will still give a great tropical vibe to your house!
