Some news.

Keaau, HI(Zone 11)

I have just learned, for all of us with H. sp. PNG-1 and/or H. sp. PNG-4 that they are both H. lamingtoniae. Musical labels, again. Also, the plant I have as H. lasiantha with the deep orange corollas is not H. lasiantha but it is H. praetorii. The H. praetorii was a real new one on me....hope to hear/read more about that soon. Photo attached.

I wonder if label manufacturers don't mess with taxonomy to increase their business.

Carol is this what David has finally determined about H. praetorii fka H. lasiantha? He had said he would have some interesting news regarding this and other hoyas. As the hoya turns continues:-).
So instead of having a PNG 1 and PNG 4, I now have two H. lamingtoniae, correct???

Blessings,

No...H. lasiantha is another hoya. He put up pictures on the msn forum and I asked some questions.

Yes...two H. lamingtoniae...lucky you!!!
