Hoya dulitensis

Hoya dulitensis was described by Rodda and Rahayu in 2022 from Borneo; the epithet points to Mount Dulit in Sarawak, a sandstone massif with wet kerangas and mossy forest. Nothing beyond the description is published and GBIF holds no wild records. Grow it as a very humid Bornean hill-forest epiphyte: bright filtered light, warm to intermediate nights, moving air and water every week of the year.

Where it grows wild

Not reached beyond the citation. Hoyas of the Dulit range grow as epiphytes on trunks and branches in wet heath and mossy forest on poor sandstone soils, where humidity is near saturation and rain falls almost daily.

Unknown. Mount Dulit rises to about 1,370 m; the measured centroid sits at 430 m, so the plant may come from anywhere between the foothills and the summit ridge.
