Hoya sipitangensis is a plant that goes downhill pretty badly in the winter, but picks up big time come the warmer weather. Here are flowers from this morning:

I know that I have never had both of these flowering at the same time until now. It is difficult to get some of these photos. I just want everyone to know that these plants have to be pushed together at the same height, which is not easy. They are not photoshopped together as I don’t have that program, and if I did, I would not have a clue about how to use it.

I hope that all of you get the chance to grow this plant someday as it wants to flower all the time, even from a young cutting. Contrary to popular belief, it grows and flowers just fine with temps in the 80s. Here are another bunch of flowers from this morning:

This doesn’t happen everyday so I will make the most of it!

I never thought that I would bloom this plant again as it is one of the most difficult of the Macgillivrayi Complex for me to grow. Anyhow, somehow it flowered again for me so here you are:

I am so happy to say that I have managed to flower this difficult to bloom plant one more time. This go around it was done on a windowsill in the regular house.

I haven’t flowered this one in about a year so it is nice to see again. The flowers are very fragrant as so many of these vericillata’s are.

This is such a crazy difficult Hoya for me to grow, that I have to celebrate its flowering. The blooms are slightly differently colored than the flowers on the much easier growing smooth-leaved clone.

Hoya vangviengiensis is flowering like crazy in the greenhouse right now. Here is a photo of the blooms from yesterday:

One of the problems with putting plants outside is that you will inevitably pick up some not so welcome visitors. I have had ants take up residence by the hundreds sometimes in a pot of Hoyas. I am hoping this does not happen this year!
