Hoya pubicalyx
Bangkok Black Beauty
is a fast growing cultivar suited for baskets or ladders. It has spectacular and varied flowers. Flowers about 10 mm across comes in bunches of 20 to 40 hanging from along the stems. Bunches may be over 10 cm across. You can see clusters with pink-red flowers and also on the same plant you might see clusters that are almost black. Some of the clusters are even mixed deep red and black. This is a very attractive hoya. The narrow 10 cm long leaves show some silvery-grey flecking patterns. Another good thing about
