Hoya ‘Imperialis Red’ (Hoya imperialis)

The oversized flower umbels of Hoya ‘Imperialis Red’ are truly impressive and the individual flowers are the largest ever seen on a hoya. Evening fragrance fills the air when ‘Imperialis Red’ is blooming during the summer months. The large, red flower umbels are offset by large, waxy green leaves that reach about 4” long. This hoya prefers to be grown in a pot with a trellis to climb on. It is a slower grower and needs to become a mature specimen before it flowers, but it is well worth the wait because when it flowers, it’s a magnificent sight to behold. An easy-to-grow habit and impressive blooms make this hoya highly sought after by collectors.
