I have had this plant now for a very long time. I think it originally came from Ric Morier and has been with me ever since. I love the orange and white flowers on this one, which surprisingly don’t drip so much nectar that I have to cut them off.

There is not much to say other than I am grateful that Hoya imperialis is regularly flowering for me again.

This is one fantastic Hoya with just one drawback. It is one of the heaviest nectar drippers of any Hoya that I have grown.

Hoya desvoeuxensis is flowering yet again so for something different I applied a paper texture filter to the photo.

A few months ago I had to restart my Hoya buntokensis, and these are the first flowers from the new start. It is growing in only a 2 inch clear cup in coconut husk. This is the first time that I have had the flowers show this shade of pink.

You can clip a cup to the peduncle to catch the nectar as is seen with H. sp. MT-02 in the top photograph, or you can just cut the peduncles off as seen in the bottom photo with Hoya sp. Sweet Scent and Hoya vitellinoides. Whatever you choose something has to be done, or the mess becomes unbearable to cleanup after a while.

All of these plants now fall under Hoya verticillata. They all have similar flowers, but the leaves vary quite widely. Some are highly scented and some have almost no fragrance. This particular one is highly perfumed.

It took me around six years of careful tending to get it to flower for the first time in a grow tent a couple of years ago. Now it is flowering willy-nilly on the windowsill. I am starting to rethink my growing strategy on some of these plants!

There are so many different Hoyas all calling themselves Hoya clemensiorum now. This is the flowers of one that April Mall sent me from Unsolicited Plant Talks:

I love this combination! The name of the inner variegated Hoya Bella is: Hoya Bella ‘Luis Bois’.
