Don't have any "blooms" to share, but wanted to share my "pride and joy." This is actually h. coronaria "lankaui island." I've had her in my hoya hospital (hoya hut with lights and fan - DH calls it "the runway" because it lights up the house!). She was down to two leaves, and, as I think I posted once before, I thought she was dying. Then she started sprouting leaves from almost every node. She's progressing nicely, I think!

If you look really closely, you can see more tiny little leaves sprouting!!!

Dear Karen,
Now I know who to send my ailing plants to. Congrats on resurrecting the nearly dead!

Good job Karen. I had a plant that declined so badly that I was down to 1 node and 1 leaf. I refused to give up on it. It took a looooong time but she finally started growing again. It has 3 new leafs.
Looks like a good triage unit to me!

OH, Karen....GOOD JOB!!! With Eriostemmas it is important not to overwater and to keep the pots small. You seem to have figured all the good stuff out. Mozteltof!!!
LOL - I'm quite certain I have figured very little out when it comes to hoyas!! For me, it's kind of like the old Wide World of Sports - I have had a few "thrill of victories" and tons of "agony of defeats!" But thanks for your kind words anyway - I'm "thrilled" with this one!!!! Karen
Karen "h. "lazarus" now that's funny! Way to go!!
Blessings,

Thanks Awanda!
