A Few Hoya Blooms

A few blooming at the moment: Obscura in the top picture, curtisii in the middle and nummularioides at the bottom. Curtisii will out scent all of them, especially at night!

Unique leaves

Happy New Year! Since there are not too many hoyas blooming this time of year, I decided to take some pics of some of the weird and wacky leaves, especially the Hoya compacta leaves. The second pic is of Hoya compacta variegata. The last 2 photos of Hoya compacta (green) and the first photo is of Hoya obscura. Some of the leaves on it have become very red veined from the grow lights. Its rather pretty and showy.

Hoya obscura (IML 1003)

I received this in my David Liddle order in May 2007. Its turned out to be a lovely foliage plant. In his catalogue, he describes it as "Philippines - a much more colourful clone with red leaves". Mine is grown under grow lights for right now. I look forward to some blooms down the road.
