ID a Plant, UK Style


The UK style of ID’ing a plant is to not ID it at all. Don’t believe me?

Hoya

Here’s an article from the Guardian about identifying plants, and a picture of a Hoya flower. Try to find where they tell you the species name in the article anywhere, even among their list of hoyas. Good luck.

Bastards.

Pretty picture, though. I would guess it’s a cultivar of the fairly common H. carnosa. This is a picture of what they usually look like when we grow them. But they can also look like this. So that settles that.
