Below is a photo of Hoya sp. UT-247 that I took this morning. There are many Philippine Hoyas that are similar to this Hoya; they are extremely easy to cultivate, the colors of their flowers run the gamut of the rainbow, and they bloom easily. The drawbacks are the flowers are extremely short lived, and they drip nectar like a sieve. I can deal with the short lived flowers, but when they rain sticky nectar on everything below the blooms, it is hard to tolerate. I now almost always cut off the buds before they open; the one below got away from me before I had the chance.
