Hoya Globulosa (Cao Bang), formerly Hoya Villosa (Cao Bang), was described by Sir Joseph Hooker and was newly introduced from the Sikkim Himalaya. It is a type of stove climber Hoya with pale straw or cream-colored flowers and pink coronal appendages.


Hoya Globulosa (Cao Bang) bears flowers in clustered heads, with a very pleasant scent similar to that of a Turk's-cap Lily. The plant's oblong leathery leaves are rounded at the base and taper to a point at the apex.

Researchers have documented its remarkable ability to imitate the fly-catching behavior of its close relative, Apocynum. Evidence suggests that this variety may tolerate temperatures lower than some of its kin.
