I got this hoya in a trade I did in June 2006. This particular sort had an addition to the name, "dark form" and it seems that it differs from the regular densifolia in that it has redish buds and that the corona seem a lot darker.

I got one older cutting and two younger ones and the two younger rooted quite fast, but the older one seemed to take forever. Before it even rooted it had grown almost 10 cm! It's not one of my fast growing hoyas, but it's doing okay... It bloomed for the first time in November 2008 and since then it has bloomed a few times... Not one of my frequent bloomers, but the plant is nice even without flowers!
