You have to be a much better botanist than I am to understand these words that I took from the Internet: “Halconensis is different than Boutii as it’s coronal lobes are longer than the corolla sinuses while Buotii’s coronal lobes are shorter and do not reach the corolla sinuses.”

In the next week or so I will be talking about how I got my reluctant Buotii to bloom with lots of great new photos, in the meantime, here is one last shot of Hoya halconesis.
