Hoya querinoensis

A Philippine hoya described in 2007 by Kloppenburg and Siar. It is close to Hoya fischeriana but has corollas about 1.2 cm across, pedicels up to about 3.7 cm long and narrower, lance-shaped sepals. Almost nothing is published about where and how it grows beyond a wet tropical Philippine forest origin, so care has to follow warm-growing Philippine hoyas in general.

Where it grows wild

Recorded only as a plant of wet tropical forest in the Philippines. Like most Philippine hoyas it is presumably a climbing or scrambling epiphytic vine rooting into bark, moss and leaf litter on trunks and branches, but no field notes on its microhabitat are published.

No elevation is recorded for this species. Most Philippine hoyas of wet forest grow from the lowlands to a few hundred metres, which fits the warm-growing care given here, but that is an assumption.
