Hoya infantalensis

Hoya infantalensis (Kloppenburg, 2018) was published in Hoya New from Philippine material; the name points to Infanta, most likely the municipality on Luzon's Pacific coast in Quezon Province, though no wild record confirms it. Grow it as a warm, humid Philippine epiphyte in bright filtered light with a coarse mix that dries a little between waterings.

Where it grows wild

Presumed an epiphytic climber in humid lowland to foothill forest. If the name refers to Infanta in Quezon, the wild climate is wetter and less seasonal than the west-coast placeholder site, with rain in every month on the Sierra Madre slopes.

Unknown; the Infanta area runs from sea level into the Sierra Madre foothills.
