Hoya maingayi In Bud!
I have a really nice specimen of Hoya maingayi and will be showcasing it in the coming weeks. I am particularly excited to have found these buds on the plant which has not flowered in over a year. It lives in the regular house so these buds are that much more remarkable. I wish the photo was better, but I think you get the idea.
Hoya stenophylla Shows No Signs Of Slowing Up!

New Roommates: Hoya linearis and Hoya krohniana
My old heart-leafed lacunosa just got a new roommate: Hoya linearis. Most of the plants out there labeled as Hoya krohniana now seem to actually be sports of lacunosa. My Hoya krohniana that came to me as the Heart-Leafed Lacunosa is probably the real Hoya krohniana as it never gets anything but heart-shaped leaves.
One Last Photo Of Hoya hamiltoniorum
I took this photo as the sun was shining on Hoya hamiltoniorum showing it flowering away right on the windowsill where it lives. There were no artificial aids in flowering this plant.

Decided to give this plant a shower and snapped couple of photos, before putting it back on the windowsill.
A Very Cool Photo!
This is the coolest photo that I have taken in some time. I have never caught the flowers on Hoya benchaii before they have fully reflexed before, but I just happened to see this and grabbed a quick photo.
Hoya hamiltoniorum Close-up Flower Photos
I decided to take the time and take some decent photos of the flowers rather than quick snapshots with my phone.
More Hoya hamiltoniorum
Since flowering Hoya hamiltoniorum does not happen everyday, we will take another couple of days to appreciate the plant. The fact that it has flowered on a window sill in ambient conditions is just icing on the cake!
