This is my Hoya hellwigiana. It's starting to throw out a peduncle again. Honestly last time the smell was so over-powering that I'll probably chop it off before it can bloom.
She sure took her time checking hahaha

Watering my plants today and noticed how cute these two were looking so I thought I'd share :)
This is my hoya sipitangensis, not sure why it chose to flower while I'm re-rooting it but I'm not complaining.
A lot of comments about the smell here haha. This one actually smells pretty faint and just smells like flowers. I have heard some varieties smell bad but so far none of the ones that have bloomed for me have been bad.
Went to a plant show yesterday with no intention to buy. I've had a h. gunung gading (bottom) on my list for so long though and the price was right so here we are... Also there was a carnivorous table so I picked up a sundew (top) to go with my pings that I had at home.
Shipping has closed for the winter so I will not be getting anymore plants this year. Probably for the better... I'll have no space once they all get bigger 😅
Got a couple of my wishlist hoyas (undulata and clemensorium) and some other beautiful plants including some succulents and begonias.
I've been waiting a month or so for the blooms to finally open up! They smell so good, very floral.
My hoya's sunstressing makes me so happy ❤
Featuring my cat 😺
More blooms:
Post pics if you got em! I think mine is my dioscorea elephantipes (at least right now, it changes often). Grown from a seed, she'll be a year old in July :)
Don't know if there's any Canadians on Lemmy that have ordered from Crystal Star Nursery but this is my third order and I'm so excited!
This is most of my current collection, minus a couple hoyas in quarantine, some succulent babies I'm growing from seed, and a thanksgiving cactus that is budding that I did not want to risk messing up the blooms.
Started with a spider plant in July of 2022, after almost a full year of keeping it alive I decided to try branching out last spring and here we are. A lot were cuttings from friends' plants :)

I have never once in my life thought about owning a gun. I hated the idea of ever having one in my home. Now I'm kind of wondering if I should get one in the event the US does invade...
