Does anyone know this hoya? It is listed on Kartuz website and is sold out. When I Googled it, the Kartuz site is the ONLY mention. -joanne
Hoya pentaphlebtea?
Hey Joanne,
I didn't run over to Kartuz, but could it be spelled pentabhlebia? Check that out, if thats the case, I think your search will come up with more information on this hoya.
Yes, I have that hoya. It has big leaves & grows like crazy. I have not had a bloom yet though.

Same with mine Marcy, I got mine from Kartuz's a couple of summers ago. He also has Hoya kanya kumariana for only $7.50 that's a great price!! I've always been pleased with the hoyas I've received from him and I recently place another order with him.
Blessings,
Awanda
My friend just ordered a HUGE pentaphlebia from Carol, and it came to my house, so I got to see it first, I can attest that it was beautiful....She even sent me a small one so that I wouldn't have beg for cuttings. I would think that she still has some, as it just arrived today.
Good luck, I just love the large shiny leaves on this plant,

I really like the fact that the leaves get a nice red colour when grown in sunshine. I find the flowers to smell like lavender. One of the favourite ones in my collection!

Oooh, I can't wait for my to grow up and bloom!
