Help me ID my hoya please :)
Comments (2)I think it's a nice photo, Amelia. You certainly have some gorgeous blooms there. I would be super happy to get such charcoal-y flowers out of my publicalyx. :) Your description of the leaves as starting out dark also fits with Mike's RHP postulation. This plant is known for lots of chocolate and wine colored leaves. As Mike says, Black Dragon's leaves are pretty but a very boring flat green. It might not even turn out to be a publicalyx. Also, it doesn't always bloom black either, as some of us have been disappointed to discover. Bloom color can fluctuate wildly depending on the plant's conditions. If you really do have a RHP, it's a very interesting plant in this respect and often shows vivid watercolor splashes of various colors on single flowers, or very different colored blooms right next to each other. Happy growing and thanks for sharing your Hoya story with us!...See MoreWhat hoya is this?

Comments (14)Ycloh1, Hi again it's me who referred you here & to C&S too. Pls. allow some time & have patience. We are not professionals at this, nor do we offer 24 hr service. I predict the answer will be at C&S if you allow time & patience pls. Perhaps as much as a week, not a day. I realize you've posted multiple places looking, but we're trying to help you. I brought you here, hoping exactly these 2 women would see this; as I knew they could rule it in or out of Hoya / Dischidia question (meaning Aurora & Denise). When I saw this at Houseplants, I suggested not Hoya / Dischidia, but some form of Crassula, explaining to you that Crassulas were a large family w/ stacked varieties as well. Could you pls keep checking there (at C&S) but give it at least a week? Really. PS: I hadn't seen you'd posted at Hoyas already when I suggested it....See MorePlease help ID these hoyas
