small leaf Hoya ID please

5 years ago

I think it’s a Hoya, but not certain. Would love to have a name to know more about it. Leaves are small, a little smaller than a dime.
Thanks in advance, any help is appreciated.

Nice, but I think it might be a Dischidia rather than a Hoya. Our friend Denise will know better. Oh Denise, are you around out there pls?

Thanks for posting the links to those pics. GORGEOUS! You have great photography skills! Were you referring to the leaves when you said your vitellina looks just like Xuan's plant? Because I just see no similarity in the flowers. As far as the leaves go, I've noticed in every picture of the leaves (including yours...which by the way is a gorgeous leaf!) that the leaves are more elongated than Xuan's (his are much more round), and not reversed heart-shaped, like his are. Gosh, you just made me SO excited to get my vitellina! I just love the color of the blooms, and I love those succulent veined leaves. Thanks again for posting pics. Gabi

"Hoya bilobata and Hoya DS-70, I am not going to argue, my was labeled bilobata when I bout, thatÂs what I call." Like I said, EA mislabels most of their hoya, and there is even a list on this forum on Dave's Garden forum that gives the actual names for EA's false names. Everyone who bought a hoya with the EA brand has the same label (such as H. bilobata) - it's still H. DS-70. But call it what you wish (I just hope you don't trade it or sell it with a false ID due to stubborness). P.S. Please do not advertise on this site. If you continue to do so, I will make a formal complaint (however, it's very unlikely that someone would buy from someone who refuses to listen to fact and who mislabels their plants). Gabi

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.

Thank you for the prelim ID pubicalyx ... That's correct in terms of the leaf. Denise is right in terms of mine having far less variegation than hers. Mine is just minutely speckled. As far as I know, the blooms are similar to those of "Pink Silver." We'll see. Well it IS growing, just not as fast in comparison to my Australis. It was a rootless cutting, so I imagine it needed time to adjust. Substrate is very loose and fast-draining ... It's what I use for my adeniums, plumeria, orchid cactus cultivars. I have basically adopted it for all my C&S because it doesn't remain excessively wet and allows the roots to move and breathe. Every climate and growing culture is different and this substrate works very well for me here. Le's wait until it blooms and I'll post pictures of it in bloom. Then we can do a better job of IDing it. Thanks for your help. Maria Elena

Karen, I believe your are correct, with a bit of googling I think its name is: Dischidia ruscifolia Million Hearts. Thank you!

Carolyn, your Hoya Curtisii is what I was hoping the plant would be. Oh well, I'll be returning it. Thanks!

Oh good, glad that's correct. I was going to suggest the ruschifolia name, as I have this, but wasn't sure & I knew Denise will know as I've had some from her yrs. ago. I believe my current one is from GreenToes, if you knew him when he was posting here.

Before you return it, pls know that it's an easy grower & has charming tiny white flowers btwn the leaves. Maybe consider keeping it? It takes the same care as Hoyas.

But I do know what you mean abt H curtisii, which I've been trying to replace for a while myself. Glad to solve your mystery.
