Hoya lucyae

Hoya lucyae was described by Kloppenburg and Siar in 2006 (Fraterna) from the Philippines; almost nothing beyond that description is published and GBIF holds no wild records. Grow it as a warm Philippine forest epiphyte: bright filtered light, warm nights, humid moving air and a coarse mix that dries fast. The measured climate is a lowland Philippine centroid, a fair picture of a warm monsoonal year but not a plant locality.

Where it grows wild

Not described in any source reached. Philippine hoyas grow as epiphytic climbers on trunks and branches in humid lowland to lower montane forest.

Unknown; the measured point is near sea level and the species may well come from hill forest a few hundred metres up.
