I agreed with tropicbreeze on the statement that in nature lots of plants blooms prolifically when stressed. In caring/enjoying Hoyas, when they become too "long" I propagate those long, long legged vines and make new ones. Christi I remembering seeing some of your most impressive hoyas blooms in years past. I'm sorry you've lost them. That pix you've posted above is one gorgeous specimen even without blooms. I can't really say yae or nae to the root-bound theory in Hoyas, but I can say this; they're forgiven plants which give us so much joy in return. Kim |
