I’ve been sick most of the week so not much to show here.  Hoya imperialis is one of the best Hoya flowers for drying.  They actually keep their color dried better than any Hoya flower that I have encountered.

Here is Hoya imperialis with its flowers fully opened from a couple of days ago:

Here is H. imperialis at the point of the buds just opening:

Here are more buds on Hoya imperialis taken a few days ago:

I have been trying to put a new post into this blog every day, but that is becoming increasingly tough to pull off – I still have to find time to take care of the plants that I love so much.  I will still try to get in at least a couple of posts a week, but it probably won’t be every day.  I have another couple of how to videos in the works, and in the next 5-6 weeks I will be adding a new greenhouse and I hope to make a time-lapse video of the entire process – should be really cool if I can pull it off.  I will be adding a section to the site called Hoya Mosaics, which should be a lot of fun; I will also show you how to make them.  I am always trying to find time to take new and better photos of Hoyas – That is what is in the works for now!
