Hoya obscura (circulated as ‘Sunrise’)
Origin and Description:
This particular clone of Hoya obscura has been widely circulated under the name 'Sunrise', though it is indeed a form of Hoya obscura. It gained popularity due to its striking ability to develop vibrant red, orange, and yellow hues when exposed to bright light, mimicking the colors of a sunrise. The glossy, oval leaves start as a mellow green but transform dramatically under the right lighting conditions. This specific clone became widely loved for its color-changing foliage, leading to its mistaken identification as Hoya 'Sunrise' for some time.
Natural Habitat:
Like all Hoya obscura, this clone originates from the tropical rainforests of the Philippines, where it grows as an epiphyte in shaded, humid environments. Its adaptability allows it to thrive in household settings with the proper care.
Care Instructions:
Light: Bright, indirect light will bring out the vibrant red and orange hues of the leaves. If kept in lower light, the leaves will remain a deep green.
Watering: Water when the top inch of soil dries out. Avoid overwatering and ensure good drainage to prevent root rot.

Temperature: Keep the plant in temperatures between 60°F and 85°F (15°C to 29°C). Avoid exposure to cold drafts or temperatures below 50°F.
Soil: A well-draining mix of perlite, orchid bark, an
