Sounds like a couple of you are giving up on hoyas and here I am really getting to love them! Kim, my Multiflora you traded me last fall is getting ready to bloom again! I am hoping to see the flowers this time ... it has blasted buds twice and I really thought I was going to lose the entire plant there for awhile .... it was not happy at all with yellowing leaves. I thought I was watering enough ... seemed like I was. Then someone suggested putting it in a self watering AV pot ... and it perked right up and has been looking so much better! I think I need to shower it off with the hose ... I just took it outside to take a picture and noticed how dusty the foliage is.
