This thin vining Eriostemma with glabrous leaf and stem comes from Papua New Guinea and is as yet undescribed. After a hot dry spell, the cooler rainy spell appears to induce it to flower freely. The green campanulate flower is rather small for this section and the centre of the corona is covered by dense hairs. According to Mr David Liddle, it is closely related to Hoya hollurungii.

Thanks for this post. Love to see the unusual and better yet undescribed.
Wow, cutting edge stuff. Thanks.
unusual, that I will not see possibly :)
you had doubts if there is a rose on the picture - yes, it is leaning on the tree and it is 6 m long (can grow much more)
Greetings,
Ewa
Another beauty. Thanks for sharing so much to yet be discovered!
I think it has nice green bloom, but as Hoyas goes, will unlikely to win many hearts ....
Beautiful, I'm inlove of hoyas. You have a fantastic ones.
Kisses from Mallorca, Spain.
