August Flowers

My wayettii has lots of leafless tendrils too! I had to move it and brevialata away from the screen because those long, dangly, thin tendrils grow through the screen! Maybe I should try a little experiment and leave one to take off through the screen to see if I could have blooms on both sides?!

This is wayettii, the entire spidery looking plant:

Wow!! That's gorgeous Lin!!

Thanks Christine ... just one of the common EA plants but I like it.

I didn't say I didn't want it...I just didn't want to be greedy ^_^

LOL!!

Lee Anne .... Greedy is Good when it comes to Hoya's! ☺ ^_^

Amen Lin.

Golly LeeAnn, sharing is only a scissor's cut away!

macro shot of hoya pubicalyx. no idea as to which one.

Sorry...somehow was not able to upload the pic.....will try again later

H pubicalyx silver pink is in bloom; this is its first flowering in three years. Hopefully the next time it won't take quite so long!


Christine

Ric, great macro shot!!! Forgot to mention how pretty hellewigiana is.

Thanks SS! I agree, that's a great shot Ric!

Oh, I love the pubicalyx silver pink bloom and Ric, that macro shot of your pubicalyx is really great! I have three pubicalyx's ... only one with an ID, Royal Hawaiian Purple that I got a year ago in a DL order. No blooms on any of mine yet. Geesh, I hope I don't have to wait years and years to see pubicalyx blooms in person!

Today is our 40th anniversary, and I found H. heuschkeliana pink in bloom this morning:

Happy anniversary Lin! That is a fantastic picture of H. heuschkeliana; I can't take a good picture of mine to save my life.

Doug

Yes, that is an amazingly good shot Lin; I know how tiny those flowers are! I've only had the yellow one flower for me; its a bit bigger, and I have trouble getting a good shot of the flowers.

Oooh Lin.....what a gourgeous H. heuschkeliana! Great shot of that tiny beauty.
Happy anniversary!

Ric

Here's a fun shot of H. densifolia...

...and here's one from yesterday.

That shot of the one flower opening is really pretty Christina; with them all open is really pretty!

Happy Anniversary Lin!! Hope it was a great day for the both of you.


Christine

Very clear and sharp Christina

Thanks everyone!

I got heuschkeliana in trades here on DG ... one from you Ric and one from Bmedel. I potted them both up together and it made a nice little plant. I love the cute little blooms on heuschkeliana and hope to get the one with yellow blooms before long too.

Oh, I like densifolia a lot. Christine, those are beautiful photo's! I clicked on the first one and really liked the look of it with one open bloom and oooh, when I saw the photo of it fully opened ... Wow! That is one hoya bloom with a really pretty combination of colors.

Beautiful flowers, everyone!

Christina,
The shape of those H. densifolia flowers remind me of small Eriostemma flowers. H. densifolia has really beautiful. flowers. Another hoya goes on my must-have list. (:o)
Mike

Lyn, happy anniversary!!! cute blooms.
Christina, H. densifolia looks a lot darker than cumingiana. Very pretty!
H. cinnamomifolia, keeps on going.

This is Palawan IPPS 9052 . The color is yellow if you can't tell.

Blessings,
Awanda

Hoya Kenejiana
Really like this hoya, fast gracious grower and very elegant yellow blooms with a very long pedicel.

Very nice. H kenejiana's leaves can get quite big can't they?

Hoya picta

H sp. Ban Ngon Ngoy

Hoya pubicalyx "Royal Hawaiian Purple" and H. sp. Ban Ngon Ngoy

very similar don't you think?

Any one else have H. sp. Tanna blooming. I know Dee in Fl. has one blooming, and mine are, so it would be interesting to see if it is evryone.

My compacta is blooming again (don't have sp. Tanna).

Closer.

The sp.Tanna always looks very pretty in photos. Does it have a scent? I have a small plant well off blooming yet

Dominic

Carol,

My buds were opening this morning, I will take a picture when I get home. Mine are not as pink as yours :( wonder if I should move it outside to brighter light??

Dee

Carol,
Mine bloomed about 3 weeks ago...it's part of your plant that you yanked down from the tree.
The blooms are definitely NOT pink at all...just white.
Here's the photo...again.

Great photos everyone.
SRQ, that RHP does not look like RHP. To me it looks more like pink silver.

Joni,

I agree with you, mine looks more like your, waaa, I wanted more pink.

Dee

Hmmm It is all so variable. Joni...you can see the pink trying to come out under the corona. Do you grow it in HIGH light or LOW light? My light on the tree is fairly low.

Sunshine,
My RHP looks a lot more pink this time...same peduncle a few months ago looked like this?

Carol,
I have had this one in about 5 hours full sun/beneath the screen of course.
Maybe if I move it to low light the pink will come from beneath the corona?
