One of my favorite Hoya, just wish it wasn't such a glacially slow grower for me.

Awe, that is a cuty hoya. You grow several Hoyas, Paul?
cheers,
BD :D
Red leaves?????
Only 3 species, currently. Used to have a couple others but gave them away. Regretably, they simply take up too much room for an apt dweller who also happens to collect orchids, carnivorous plants, cacti/succulents, .......Quote:

Many of the leaves are green or at least much more so. I'm assuming the red -- as with the purple blush catts can get -- is due to the amount/intensity of light it receives. Considering it aggravatingly slow growth (for me, at least), the red color does provide appeal to offset the slow growth issue.Quote:

It was soooo slow to start, but after a few years, it is pretty vigorous. At least they don't take up so much room if they are slow.
I really like the flowers on yours!
