Hoya maximowayetii

Hoya maximowayetii is a Philippine endemic described by Kloppenburg in 2015 and known essentially from the type material, with no published ecology. Treat it as a typical Philippine lowland-to-hill forest epiphyte: warm all year, humid, bright filtered light and a mix that dries between waterings.

Where it grows wild

Assumed, as for most Philippine hoyas, to be an epiphytic vine on trunks and branches of humid evergreen forest, from the lowlands into the hills.

No elevation is recorded; the placeholder climate site sits at 9 m. Philippine hoyas of this group mostly occur below about 1,000 m.
