A few days ago I showed a plant that I was excited to flower called Hoya Russell. Well it has now flowered, and it turns out that it came mislabeled and really was H. ilagiorum. I do not blame the sender at all as I am sure that she received the plant labeled incorrectly and never had a chance to see it flower before she sent the plant to me.
The upside of the mistake was that I have not had H. ilagiorum in at least five years so it is nice to have it back for awhile!
