Final Hoya hahniae comparison photo for now.  After sacrificing a peduncle, which the plant would have flowered many times on, I needed to get the most from it, and I think I accomplished my mission!

Both flowers are pink, but the much pinker Hoya hahniae makes Hoya rosarioae look orange. By the way, I finally had a chance to smell Hoya rosarioae without a cold, and I can say that it does indeed smell of roses!

Pink and Pinker -Hoya hahniae on the Left and Hoya rosarioae on the Right.

These two were made for each other!

I really love this photo of the two groups of flowers together.  I took this for posterity as both Hoya hahniae and H. blashernaezii blooms have incredibly short lives.

It took a while but now Hoya hahniae is a flowering machine – so much so that I felt I could sacrifice a peduncle to be able to take better photos of it. Over the next few days it will meet a number of new “friends.”

Two must have Hoyas that grow and flower at the same time and in the same way.  No artificial aids were used to get these plants to bloom.

Two Fuzzies – Hoya halconesis on the Left and Hoya alagensis NS05-232 on the Right.

You can tell that these flowers will be the true Hoya celata and not the ‘Pink Dragon’ because at this stage the buds have no pink tinge coloration – Nothing but pure green.  I would guess I will see flowers in a week to ten days.

For no other reason than they are both flowering at the same time:

It has been an eight year journey to get this one to flower; will it indeed be the elusive Hoya pubicalyx ‘White Dragon’ now known as H. celata – Only time will tell.  Here are the buds from this morning – Excuse the lousy photo, but it was quite a reach to be able to take it.

I bought this one as Hoya hanhiae Yellow/Pink, but now after just flowering it again believe that it is light pink.  It is still a very nice flower!
