# Can anyone help me identify this type of Hoya? I tried doing some…

_Posted by bee on 2026-04-13_

Can anyone help me identify this type of Hoya? I tried doing some research and the only ones I could find with leaves somewhat similar are the Hoya Burtoniae or Hoya Rosita. With both being rare to find, I find it hard to believe I got my hands on either! I did purchase it from a Home Depot and I know some people have gotten lucky with rare finds but any help would be appreciated! The leaves are more fuzzy, not smooth and waxy like my Hoya Carnosa.

My Hoya Burtoniae looks similar so that’s my guess!
