美國著名的飛行員和探險家Richard Archbold (1907 – 1976)在1933年11月3日的巴布亞紐幾內亞島上發現大鈴鐺毬蘭。硬質且大的橢圓形葉子,長約12-16公分,寬約4.5-5公分,邊緣逐漸狹長且尖的葉型。花徑4-5公分,鈴鐺型,顏色由紅至白都有。鈴鐺型的鮮紅花朵,配上白色花冠,花瓣外尖成反摺,又大又鮮豔的花色真的特別吸引人呢~
Hoya archboldiana was discovered in 1933 on Papua New Guinea. The plant has very hard and big leaves, about 12-16 cm long and 4.5-5 cm wide, oval shaped but narrows down to a sharp tip at the edge. The flowers are large up to 5cm across, bell-shaped bright red flowers with white under the corona. The outer tips of the petals are reflexed. The flowers last for 2 to 3 weeks.
大鈴鐺毬蘭屬熱帶植物,像台灣海島型的氣候,很適合種植哦! 給於充足的陽光、水分及定期施肥,就可以長得很漂亮啦~ 夏季則要避免陽光曝曬,導致葉面曬傷。適合生長溫度23-30度,適合種於室內/室外,辦公室也可以,栽培介質不拘,以良好透水透氣為主。
Hoya archboldiana is easy for care and thrives in bright, indirectly sun. Too much direct sun to burn and bleach the leaves, epically in summer. They are tropical plants, so you should not to keep them in cool temperatures. Choose a planting material with well-drained and air permeability.
