Hoya narcissiflora

Hoya narcissiflora was described by Sri Rahayu and Michele Rodda in 2017 in Reinwardtia, the journal of the Bogor herbarium, and is named for its daffodil-like flowers with a raised cup-shaped corona; it is endemic to Borneo and, given the journal, was almost certainly collected in Kalimantan.
