Wow, could I be any more excited?! That is some beautiful plant. Way to go, Vietnam!

Thanks for sharing, Mike! Now I just have to go get over this feeling like I'm going to throw up if I can't have Hoya lockii. :P

I like the look of this new hoya.

That's it! GG and Cindy pack your bags because we are going to Vietnam. After reading a little further I noticed that this Hoya is often found growing with an orchid I have adored for many years, Eria thao. Why not knock of two exceedingly rare plants at the same time.
I can daydream can't I? lol

Mike, I am getting close to Vietnam this summer but I guess not close enough to get my hands on this lovely hoya.

Mike forgot to say last night that you and GG our more than welcome to pack your bags and join me and my daughter.My husband would feel so much better if a guy was with us while we in Bangkok and Bali.LOL

This species is very exciting; I bet we will will see it in U.S collections within a few years (after the Thai and Swedes, of course).
