Hoya dasyantha (dah-zee-AN- thus) has thick green leaves with prominent veins, the leaves can become large on a healthy plant. Carnosa type flower with a pleasant fragrance. Blooms open a soft pale pink turning white upon opening with a red center.

Hoya's are climbing houseplants used outdoors in mild climates. They have thick waxy, evergreen leaves and tight clusters of small flowers and are commonly grown in sunny windows. A hoya plant does best in rich, loose, well-drained soil and blooms best when pot bound; they are usually grown in containers even outdoors. Do not prune out flowering wood; new blossom clusters appear from stumps of old ones. With the right light, temperature, and watering, your hoya plants should thrive and give you the beautiful blooms you expect.
