Hoya odetteae

Hoya odetteae (Kloppenburg, 1998) is a Philippine hoya whose only wild specimen comes from Agusan del Sur in eastern Mindanao, a lowland that is wet all year. It is a warm, humid grower without a rest; the cultivated Hawaiian vouchers show it is easy under ordinary tropical-hoya conditions.

Where it grows wild

Epiphyte in lowland rainforest and riverside vegetation of the Agusan valley (Patin-ay bridge near San Francisco); no elevation on the label, but the valley lies below 100 m.

Lowland, probably under 200 m; the measured site is a region centroid on Mindoro at 9 m.
