Hoya globulosa (Cao Bang) rare houseplant
  • Hoya globulosa Hook.fil. , formerly Hoya villosa (Cao Bang), has pale straw- or cream-colored flowers and pink coronal appendages. It bears flowers in clustered heads, with;a very pleasant scent similar to that of a Turk's-cap Lily. The plant's oblong leathery leaves are rounded at the base and taper to a point at the apex.
    Researchers have documented its remarkable ability to imitate the fly-catching behavior of its close relative, Apocynum. Evidence suggests that this variety may tolerate temperatures lower than some of its kin.

    ;

    The genus was named in Modern Latin in honor of English gardener and botanist Thomas Hoy (c. 1750-1822).
