Hoya soligamiana Another plant That Is Back After Restarting
Hoya soligamiana is another spieces that has come back to me after I lost the roots to rot in 2021. Don’t wait too long to take cuttings of your plants if you suspect that root rot has taken hold, or you will be likely to lose that plant.

I came about as close to losing this one as you can get, but my 2 leaf remaining cutting that did nothing for months finally pulled though and flowered. This is a very beautiful flower that only lasts for about a day and a half.
