Hoya lagunaensis

Hoya lagunaensis was described by Kloppenburg in 2014 and is named for Laguna province on Luzon, the forested country around Mt Makiling and the Sierra Madre foothills. It is barely known in cultivation, so treat it as a warm Philippine lowland to hill-forest epiphyte with a marked dry season.
