Here is a shot of the flowers with my hand to get a perspective on the over all size of the flowers of Hoya maingayi.

Similar color, but could not be any more different!

I really love this plant; it does not flower too often so that you get jaded, and the flowers unlike so many other Hoya does not drip nectar all over the place!

I love this partially open peduncle of Hoya maingayi flowers.

Sadly, I finally got to the point where I could no longer handle the massive size of this plant, or stand the constant cleanup mess from the spent flowers. This is the last photo of it before I pulled it apart to salvage the vine clips, pot, trellis and a few cuttings, before discarding it. This one hurt quite a bit, but no plant lasts forever.

Sadly after I took these photos, I had to cut all of the flowers off from the plant as it was dripping nectar all over its leaves and everything else.

The fragrance of this one can be a bit overwhelming. Tomorrow photos of the entire plant.

Hoya maingayi has to be one of the slowest Hoyas to go from beginning buds stage to flower. It is however getting closer week by week.

Here is another unlikely duo:
