Sorry Deb, but I'm not doing anything to make them bloom. They just do! Especially the "ordinary" australis. That photo was taken 2 years ago, last year it didn't bloom that much, but this year there will be more than ever. The funny thing with this hoya is that it seems to wait to open all umbels at the same time or witin days from each other.
Perhaps soon Carol will have little 'Lisa' in her range. However, I find 'Lisa' to be a very slow grower...

Hoya Australis Lisa - The BIG plant!!
super nice Marie, this is a really pretty Hoya. I'm gonna have to get in on Carol's list, I want one. Christina def. has a beauty.. Christina & Marie do you know each other? How far apart do you live? Oh yes and Marie do you know Maria?
Hi TamiF!
Thanks! :) I love australis īLisaī itīs very beautiful :)
Yes I know them both, Maria and I are almost next door neighbours. :) And I have boot (buy) hoyas from her a cuple of times. But we donīt live in the same part of the country, I live in the north and she as far south as you can come and still be in Sweden ;)

How fun to be close to people who share your passion for Hoya's. All three of you have such wonderful collections. Welcome to the Forum, can't wait to see more of your plants.
Thanks TamiF, this forum seems like a really nice place. :)
Hey Marie, the word you were looking for is "bought" hoyas from. Okay, now I need a word in Swedish to learn! Sound fair?

I love it, that is the perfect word for me to start with Marie. I actually looked up bought in the dictionary. One of the spellings was bot, with an accent ovet the o. I wanted to make sure I was giving the proper suggestion and I've been speaking english my whole life, ha ha ha!
