Great job Pamela! Do you have a way of protecting them from direct sun?
I wish I had a special "Hoya" area! I keep saying it would be nice to have them all together in one spot instead of spread around mixed in with tons of other plants. I end up misplacing one or two here and there because they end up shoved in a corner behind something else. I just have too many different kinds of plants ... keep saying I'm going to downsize and just concentrate on one type!
My husband constructed something for me last year around the swimming pool area for my hanging plants and I do have a few hoyas hanging out there. He bought long pipes that are used for chain link fencing, painted them brown to match the aluminum screen enclosure and hung some wrought iron plant brackets and put the poles through. I will see if I can find a photo, or go take a picture to post.

Ok, this shows one side of the pool deck ... this hanging plant system runs the length of one side of the pool and across the width.
