Where it grows wild

Presumed an epiphytic or limestone-climbing Hoya of humid evergreen forest on karst in north-central Vietnam, where much of the recent Vietnamese Hoya work has been done. The epithet refers to nodding flower clusters. Habitat detail beyond this is inferred from the genus.

No elevation on record; the modelled site lies at about 120 m. Karst forest in this region spans roughly 50 to 800 m.
