Hoya Pubicalyx

Hoya pubicalyx can reach a length up to several meters in its tropical habitat. The leaves are narrow and have more or less silver flecks, depending on which variety it is. ‘Pink Silver’ has a lot of flecks, while has much less ‘Red Button’. There are many varieties in circulation that bear slightly different colored flowers but they all have the nice leaves. The color of the flowers vary from pink-red with white corona to almost black with red coronas, and pink-red, spotted and black flowers. All flowers are quite fragrant. Hoya Pubicalyx is very similar looking to Hoya Carnosa but the difference between Carnosa and  Pubicalyx is that  the Pubicalyx  leaves are longer and narrower. The carnosa leaf is a little shorter in length, more  like an football shape.
