    Nursery contributed plant descriptions

    Easy to grow and bloom, the floral structure of this hoya boasts large clusters of star-shaped blooms almost nonstop throughout the year. Its thick leaves, heavy stems and upright-to-spreading growth habit add a defining presence to any collection. Even under dry conditions and moderate light, it still performs like a champion.
