이 팟캐스트 소개 🔗
Every hoya is named for a real person. Each week, Phil Achleman tells the story behind the name: the collectors, botanists, gardeners, and obsessives whose lives got attached to a plant. Hoya kerrii, Hoya clemensiorum, Hoya meredithii, and the gardener whose name became the entire genus.

In the spring of 1995, the hoya world ran through a house in Central Point, Oregon. Ann Wayman edited Fraterna, the quarterly bulletin of the International Hoya Association. She was also its secretary and its treasurer, and the association office was her own home. Seven people met in her living roo…

A note on the names in this episode.
I am a plant grower from Indiana. Some of the names in this episode are Swedish, some are Papuan, and I know I did not say all of them the way the people who own them do. That is on me and my accent, never a lack of respect, least of all for the woman this epis…
She edited the hoya world's journal for twenty three years. Botanists trusted her with the record of an entire genus. A species carries her name to this day. And there is not one confirmed photograph of her anywhere we can find.
This is the story of Christine Burton and Hoya burtoniae, the velvet l…
Grower sites say Hoya anncajanoae smells like caramel and drips nectar. This episode is about the woman inside that long name. Mary Ann Cajano, known as Ana, was a herbarium technician at the University of the Philippines Los Baños who looked after more than seventy thousand specimens. Four living …
The man whose name you say every day. Before hoya was a plant, it was Thomas Hoy, a working gardener at Syon House who served three Dukes of Northumberland across forty years. In 1810, botanist Robert Brown named an entire genus for him. This week: the gardener's life in the 1780s, the great estate…
Hey! I'd love to hear your thoughts, send me a voice note.
Most people know Hoya kerrii as the heart-shaped plant sold around Valentine’s Day. Behind that familiar leaf is the remarkable story of Arthur Francis George Kerr—an Irish doctor whose life became deeply rooted in Siam, now Thailand.
In th…
Hey! I'd love to hear your thoughts, send me a voice note.
Hoya clemensiorum is named for two people, not one. Joseph Clemens was an Army chaplain who followed his wife Mary into the field, from Hawaii to the Philippines to China to British North Borneo. When he died on a jungle trail in New Guinea…
Hey! I'd love to hear your thoughts, send me a voice note.
Updated September 2026: an earlier version of this episode included a quote I could not verify. It has been corrected, and the audio above is the fixed version. The plant's story turned out to be better than the first draft anyway.
Hoya mer…
