Hoya nummularoides (silver)

The Hoya nummularioides, native to the tropical forests of Southeast Asia, particularly in Thailand, Cambodia, Laos, and Vietnam, is a plant with a meaningful name. The species name 'nummularioides' is derived from Latin, meaning "coin-shaped" or "coin-like," aptly describing its unique, small, rounded leaves.

This plant is distinguished by its blooming habit, producing clusters of flowers, especially prolific during the fall. This pattern is a response to the seasonal changes in its native habitat, where shorter, warm days and longer, cool nights trigger its flowering phase.
