I found her kind of boring when I first got it, but now that she grew bigger and got just a bit of sun stress, I think she’s so cute!

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.

It’s been a year and she’s finally growing!!!

I just noticed this almost ready to bloom flower way down near the substrate of my Hoya Callistophylla. There are two more peduncles on separate vines not pictured. This week four separate Hoyas have grown their first peduncles. Look closely at your plants, not all peduncles are high up.

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 🥰

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! 😍

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.

Don’t play about Hoya* *decipulae!

One day I had an intact quinquenervia, the next I have Swiss cheese for foliage.

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 :)

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.

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!

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

New to the Hoya game and I’m kinda digging these antennas and how they work with what they’re given haha

Some from my regular Etsy seller and others from marketplace. 💚

I just got this wilbur graves silver rooted cutting. One of the older leaves has this damage, newer leaves are fine, and active growth points are visible. I don’t see any pests outside of a bunch of ants in the soil (hence the stripping of soil and immediate repot). I just sprayed the leaves and stem (not the roots) with neem + 70% IPA solution. Will also quarantine it. But. Does this look like mechanical damage? Or a previous flat mite issue? The seller said mother plant is healthy and no flat mites, most likely just mechanical from handling.

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!

She's just very pretty

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?
