I used to flower Hoya serpens regularly but over the last few years, it has been all that I can do to keep the plant alive. I was very close to losing this one, but I’m so glad that I managed to keep it around. This is a plant that will only flower with the increasing day length of spring and early summer. I did it under lights by increasing day length from 12 hours a day to 15 hours a day.
