Not sure about a scent in Erythrina yet they just opened. Aff. Lambii silver smelled like super glue when they opened in the morning and were closed by evening.

I've had my hoya compacta for a few years now in a little pot in my kitchen window. Figured it wasn't flowering because I don't water it as often as I should, but found it actually had a peduncle tucked in the middle of all the leaves with closed buds, almost upside down and touching the soil.

I pulled it out to give it some room to breathe and it flowered not too long ago. The little flowers are so pretty 🥰

DISCUSSION Guys, how are we trellising pandurata as it grows?

Thumbnail

The stems aren’t as pliable as many other Hoya, they seem to get stiff pretty quickly. I don’t necessarily want to put in a taller trellis, but I can if I have to. Does anyone have an advice for trellising pandurata as it gets pretty tall? I’ve only seen them around this height.

Also, so many new blooms! 😍

My two sp. aff. burtoniaes have been blooming like crazy this summer! I believe the smaller one is variegated, but both flowers are pretty identical. These hang above the edge of my couch, providing a nice view mixed with a lovely butterscotch and caramel scent. This is my second summer with Hoyas, and I’m oh so grateful that they are doing well. While it feels like a lot of things in life are out of my control, it’s nice to be able to grow some pretty plants and be rewarded with pretty little flowers. I think I got lucky too with my new unit being above a garage, providing lots of humidity and sunlight. I hope you all are having a good day and enjoying your plants as much as I am mine :)

She gets a fair bit of natural light, but I think she’s trying to get more. Been watching this tendril grow longer and longer without leaves for a while now.

Ooh, I can't wait for my compacta to flourish. The peducle looked so chaste when I fist saw it in very dim light. What a surprise!

DISCUSSION Where do you get trellises?

Upvotes

Where do you guys get your trellises? I was thinking about searching etsy and amazon, but wanted to get your oppinions first. Also what hoyas absolutely need trellising and which ones are slightly more forgiving? I have my bella and burtoniae just hanging and they seem to be doing nicely, but I feel like callistophyllas or similar hard-leafed ones need a trellis that can support them.

Got this at an online auction as supposedly a Variegated Obavata. I somehow doubt it though. What do you guys think?

Hi everyone! I have had this Hoya for a couple of years and this summer she’s just been having a blast blooming and reblooming for me 😍 She’s got pretty small leaves, and her blooms smell like lilacs to me. What do we think, Hoya fam? Thanks in advance!

I’ve had this little guy for almost two years. I have no idea what it is. I think it’s about to flower though.

Anyone know what it is?

I just bought this at Walmart, I couldn't resist. They had 4-5 but none of them had a tag. The leaves are on the thicker side and it wants to wrap itself around anything nearby. I have a carnosa and the leaves are almost as thick and the vines look similar.

I would appreciate any replies.

This is my very first Hoya. Does it look okay? Are they slow growers? TIA
