Hoya sp. pb04001

The PB04001 Collector Hoya

What Is Hoya sp. PB04001?

Hoya sp. PB04001 is a collector-identified Hoya traded under a field collection code rather than a formal botanical name. The code “PB04001” usually refers to the original collection record or locality.

Like other Hoyas, it grows naturally in tropical rainforest environments as an epiphytic vine, climbing trees in warm and humid conditions. It is not an aquatic plant and should never be submerged.

Because it has not yet been formally described, its exact species identity may still be under study. It is valued mainly by collectors who enjoy rare, field-coded Hoya forms.

Uncommon and collector-focused, Hoya sp. PB04001 is ideal for dedicated Hoya enthusiasts.
