Hoya parviflora
Hoya Parviflora Splash
This hoya is one of the smaller among the hoya species. The stems grow rapidly and tangle into other hoyas but because they are so thin they are easy to wrap around the trellis forming the dense foliage. Leaves may turn to red in sunlight, showing in long narrow shaped with pointed tips very nicely. The leaves are a dark green with very few grey spots and some of them have an uneven edge. The umbels are only 2 cm across with tiny flowers measuring 0.5 cm. It has virtually no scent at all. Flowers are snowy red orange mixed off-white colored. Memory of snow ball can be seen in the flowers. In the flower center appear in a little 5 star shapes with very light yellow colored shown. Colors flower can vary from yellow to pink or the same umble change. Flower produces very frequent, sweet and mild fragrance with a faints scent of rose. Perfect idea for being a home decorative item in hanging basket or on trellis.
