My first time getting this orchid to bloom! It smells just like coconut. Love it! There is one flower and one bud, but hopefully more to come. I didn't even know this was getting buds until I looked today and it was already blooming!
This hoya originally came from my great grandma 25+ years ago in Seattle. My grandma took clippings from her, my mom took clippings from my grandma in Alaska, and I just took clippings from my mom and brought them to Florida. A multi-generational hoya :) It rooted very quickly and is now growing like a week in this humid weather. The new growth starts out very dark (see above), then lightens up.
When I'm not tending my own plants, I'm most likely talking about plants, shopping for plants, going to orchid shows, lurking around gardening forums and taking pictures of plants. Obsessed much? Nawww........
