Hoyas House Plants

Hoya Identification please?

last modified: 4 years ago

I have 20 Hoyas now but there are 2 that i question, one I've had for years and a new one that I just wanted confirmation on their ID.. I think one is a publicalyx and the other I was told is a wayettii but I am not sure if it's just what an immature wayettii looks like or if they got it wrong..

Neither are wayetii. That I can say for sure. The second one is pubicalyx. The first one presents a bit more of a challenge. On first glance, I would say it is hoya sp aff burtoniae. It was sold in a lot of big box stores as DS-70 or bilobata. If the leaves are very rigid and have a bit of a fuzzy feeling to them, that makes me a bit more confident about my ID.

Yes the one on the top in this picture is wayetii. It has banana-shaped leaves with dark margin.
