Tarev,Lovely plant want to see the blooms when they open!!! Hurray!

I have a H. DS-70 that started blooming last sept or oct. and is still in bloom.Are some Hoya's constant bloomers & i guess the the H.DS-70 would be one?

I am also just tinkled to death because i have 2 other Hoya's blooming or fixing to bloom!! Thumbs up I figured i would have them for years before they would bloom for me.

Every now & then i put my HB's in the shower and water them & it rinses any dust off the leaves.This is what i found the last time i done this.This plant is one i had a hard time getting an exact ID on, the best advice i got was, it's could be either an H.Kentiana or H.Wayetii,wait until it blooms to then it will be easier to ID.So i am excited about this one blooming.

Thumb of 2013-03-26/jojoe/517dc8 I'm surprised they bloomed at all in the house it's was cold & rained Dec,Jan & Feb.The air gets so dry it's hard to keep my plants watered and they usually do dry out more than i would like before i get back around to them.This month it warmed up into the high 70's & an 80 once or twice,with the sun shining.Then my Holiday cactus,lipstick plants & Hoya's all started blooming.

I will post another picture when the blooms are bigger (i hope they do) and see if i can't get an definite ID on the plant.

Have a wonderful day.
A green thumb comes only as a result of the mistakes you make while learning to see things from the plants point of view!!
