Milkweed plant family

Abstract

A new plant variety is distinguishable from specimens of the Hoya Carnosa Krinkle 8 variety by a predominance of variegated leaf blades which at the upper epidermal side have a solid green center field and an albino marginal area which is frequently discontinuous, and leaf petioles which in color are dominated by greenish yellow, yellow green, purplish pink, reddish purple, purplish red, pink and/or red hues.

We claim 
     
       1. The new and distinct variety of the Milkweed Family, substantially as herein shown and described, and which in comparison to the Hoya Carnosa `Krinkle 8` variety is characterized by the following combination of principal distinguishing characteristics: 1. A predominance of variegated leaf blades which at the upper epidermal side have a solid green center field and an albino marginal area which is frequently discontinuous, and   2. Leaf petioles which in color are dominated by greenish yellow, yellow green, purplish pink, reddish purple, purplish red, pink and/or red hues.
