Hoya loheri

Hoya loheri was described by Kloppenburg in 1991 and is endemic to the Philippines; it is named after the collector August Loher. Little is published beyond the description, so this profile is built from the one wild record, a lowland site on Panay, and from what Philippine lowland hoyas need: warmth, high humidity and a slightly drier late dry season.

Where it grows wild

Presumably an epiphyte of lowland to hill forest; the single georeferenced record is at about 180 m in central Panay. No field notes on the exact microhabitat were reachable.

The one record sits at roughly 180 m; the elevation range of the species is not documented.
