Gabi, wow, instant flowers, very nice indeed!!

Those yellow flowers on the kenejiana remind me a little bit of pooh bear (yellow and fuzzy, sort of cuddly) Heeee Heeee.

I don't have most of the hoyas that you got, and really appreciate being able to put a picture with a name. That always comes in handy when trying to decide what to order later. Your new acuta, and the pentaphlebia look really nice and healthy. I am on my second pentaphlebia, and we are hanging in at best. I am not sure what I am doing wrong, but I think that I need to let things dry out a little more...I am a chronic over-waterer.

I didn't know that Hoya sipitangensis was a small leafed hoya like that. As much as I love the huge, extreme, giant leaves on the latifolia, polystachya, and clandestinas, I really also love the little button-like leaves on the small hoyas like sp. biak, mathilde, and my new favorite, Hoya thompsonii, which I just received a beautiful cutting from a good friend yesterday.

Congratulations,
S
