I still can’t grow this PES-03 Aff. Bella very well, but it flowered for me once again and here it is with a second flowering of Hoya ilagiorum.

Both of these plants are blooming right now.

Not much going on so this week I will be showing new flower comparison photos. Here are Hoya mirabilis and Hoya krohniana together. This shows how much bigger Hoya mirabilis is than lacunosa type flowers.

If I get lucky enough to flower this one, you will all hear me whoop across the country. I have had this plant now for six years and no sign of budding up until now. I have probably jinxed myself by showing these buds, but we will see.

I got this Hoya in a trade last fall and it is slowly starting to take shape. The leaves turn spectacularly red on this one when exposed to high light.

We will end the month of January with Hoya danumensis, which has just managed to weakly flower with seven blooms.

I have not flowered this one in some time. I have three small plants in my wire hanging trellis pictured here along with a flower photo from this morning.

I used to think that Hoya sp. EPC-319 was an easy plant and did not treat it with the respect that it deserved. This was not the right treatment and this plant has barely hung on over the last couple of years to the point where I thought it was lost, but finally it has come back. I will never take this one for granted again!

This is what happens to the leaves on imperialis when placed under an LED light that is very intense. It looks like it has a severe case of freckles!

What a wonderful plant, it flowered only a month ago and has budded up yet again and flowered. This has happened practically in the dark on the windowsill; it makes no sense, but I’ll take it!
