Hoya engleriana has much smaller leaves compared to other Hoya. It was named in honor of Dr. Adolf Engler, a botanist. It is native to the moutainous, foggy regions of Indo-China and prefers higher humidty than most other Hoya. It has an upward, bushy growth habit and we highly recommend providing supports like a trellis to encourage growth. It was first published as a species in 1907. It does well on a weekly watering schedule, but you don't need to worry about the soil drying in between waterings like you do with other Hoya. Like others, this Hoya thrives well in bright, indirect light.
