Hoya Pink Sekadau
Hoya Pink Sekadau is an as-yet unidentified Hoya collected from the Sekadau regency of West Kalimantan, Indonesian Borneo, and grown in the trade under this locality and color name. Like many Bornean Hoya still working through formal classification, it's offered here as a genus-level find rather than a named species.
Note: as a freshly imported bare-root plant, this specimen typically arrives with just a few leaves — the photo shows a more mature, fuller specimen for reference.
Care tip: Treat as you would most epiphytic Hoya from Bornean forest — bright indirect light, a well-draining mix, and consistent humidity while it establishes.
Give it a well-draining, chunky epiphyte mix and allow it to dry somewhat between waterings, in keeping with general Hoya care. As with all undescribed sp. finds, exact appearance and mature growth habit will vary — the photo shows a mature reference specimen — your bare-root plant will typically be smaller.
West Kalimantan continues to yield newly documented Hoya as botanical fieldwork expands, and locality finds like this one represent the earliest stage of that ongoing discovery process.
