View source

This historical nursery catalog documents plants offered by Hummel’s Exotic Gardens in 1960. Its entry for Hoya carnosa compacta appears on printed page 14 (PDF page 19) and describes closely set, wavy leaves held against the stem.

The entry establishes a dated use of the name and includes nursery observations about branching and flowering in small cuttings. It does not establish the selection’s original date, genetic origin or a propagation chain to present-day plants. Those observations are not controlled growing trials.
