Hoya lasiantha
An epiphytic hoya from the lowland rainforests of peninsular Thailand and western and central Malesia. It has pendant umbels of hairy flowers, which is what the epithet means, so it suits a hanging basket. Little is published on its wild conditions. The advice here is based on the hot, wet, unchanging climate around its Bornean herbarium sites.
