Aceh 'Dragon Egg' is a rare unidentified collector Hoya associated in cultivation with Aceh, northern Sumatra, Indonesia.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis plant is grown primarily for its remarkable foliage. Mature leaves are thick and substantial with deeply impressed, prominent venation that creates a sculptural, almost quilted surface. The leaves are generally broad and oval to somewhat egg-shaped, which inspired the trade name 'Dragon Egg'.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLeaf shape can be surprisingly variable. Some leaves may be more rounded, others more pointed, and mature foliage may develop slightly irregular or gently ruffled margins. Subtle splash or speckling may also appear on some leaves.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e'Dragon Egg' is a horticultural name rather than a formally described species. Its exact botanical identity has not been established, so we retain the “sp.” designation rather than assigning it to a species based on foliage alone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause this plant has become highly sought after, visually similar Aceh Hoyas have also appeared in cultivation under the 'Dragon Egg' name. For collector plants like this, provenance is especially important, and leaf appearance alone should not be considered sufficient to establish clone identity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eName in cultivation:\u003c\/strong\u003e Hoya sp.
