Some pics of the hoyas growing like crazy...

I took a couple pics of the hoyas today even though it was quite cloudy but we still didn't get much rain.  My dog Ruby decided to be in one of the pics posing with the plants.  I have some other plants mixed in here but they are mostly hoyas.  These are not all the hoyas I have.  There are some more hoyas on the other side of the deck and I have a few on the front porch.  I am not looking forward to dragging them all back inside for the winter.  A lot of them have gotten much larger so it is going to be hard finding places for all of them but I do not want to get rid of any of them.

Sorry I haven't been posting...

I have not been posting this summer even though most of the hoyas have been growing like mad with the hot weather we had.  I just recently got a hoya imperialis "alba" from Joni.  I haven't been able to buy many hoyas this summer due to lack of money so I have been watching them grow.  I had to restart my sigillatis so it is now living as two plants in the rooting aquarium.  The moss that was growing on the dirt it was in got to be too much and I think it was starting to rot.  The imperialis rauchii is growing like mad, I don't know what I am going to do with it for the winter because it is huge.  The polystachia had to be replanted into a new pot because it got so big.  I will try to post some new pics this weekend since I now have realize that people are actually coming to this blog.  :)

Hoya Imperialis

This is my Hoya Imperialis. It did not quit growing during the winter. I kept it watered and never let it dry out. I had to add a larger trellis for it to grow on.

Hoya minibelle and lost hoyas...

No matter how much I neglect hoya minibelle, she always blooms for me.  Her blooms smell nice especially at night.  I am currently working on getting my hoyas back outside.  I lost a few over the winter, including hoya buoti, hoya retusa, and hoya rotundiflora.  I may get another rotundiflora but the other two I am just going to go with that I can't keep them watered in the winter enough until I have a greenhouse.  I have lost two hoya buoti so I have given up on that plant for good.
