Hoya 'Krimson Queen'

KRIMSON QUEEN was Cobia's trademark for the patented Hoya carnosa 'Tricolor', a variegated carnosa, and the label is now applied loosely to many white-margined carnosa clones. Growers find it needs brighter light than plain carnosa to hold its cream-and-pink margins, and all-white leaves eventually die off; it is usually slower to bloom than green carnosa.
