Hoya vangviengiensis

A Hoya from Laos and southern China, described by Rodda and Simonsson in 2012 and named after Vang Vieng in Laos. The measured sites have a monsoon climate with hot, wet summers and cool, dry winters, so it should get a cooler, drier winter.

Where it grows wild

No habitat notes were found in the sources we could open. Vang Vieng lies in a limestone karst region; like other Hoyas it is a climbing epiphytic or rock-dwelling vine.

The two measured sites are at about 450 and 1010 m; there are no wild GBIF records with elevation.
