This is the first time my lacunosa has ever bloomed for me, and it has produced a whole bunch of peduncles and buds. Here is the first of what I hope are many lacunosa blooms:
Lacunosa & aff. Anulata blooms
You should be proud, Ann! Those are very nice fragrant hoyas and great photos!

Thanks Christina!
Yes, they do smell divine.
Ann
My gosh Ann - you are really getting your hoyas to bloom! This is wonderful. And I also must say - - dang, that new camera of yours takes FABULOUS close ups! thanks for sharing
Ann - beautiful flowers and beautiful pictures!!
Beautiful photos Miss Kitty. What kind of camera did you get?
Ms. K be afraid.....be very afraid. The Hoya Hit Man aka Hoya Jedi may be paying you a visit, along with his sidekick!

Wow..Ann, your photos are GREAT. What kind of camera DID you get? I want details. Ha.
Your blooms are lovely too. You are now forever hooked on hoyas. I think there is something in the smell of the booms that sublinguly mesmerizes us into buying more & more of them. Ha. It's like a drug or something.

Doin' good, Ms. Kitty!!! Gosh, the photos are terrific!!!
Ann your photo's are very pretty. What a delicate pink on anulata. I can't wait now for mine to bloom. Congrats on your blooms
Congratulation on your beautiful blooms.

Thanks Everyone!!!
For those who asked, the camera I got is an Olympus SP-320. I got it at circuit city for under 200 dollars with a 30 dollar mail-in rebate). It's got 7.1 megapixels and a Super Macro setting which allow for shots as close as .8 inches (2 cm) from the blooms. It's also very user friendly, compact and lightweight - it's too fabulous!

PS for HJM Awanda ... yeah, right. I am so darned afraid of a white guy and his dog who are three inches tall ... what'r they gonna do? Bite my pinky toe? Ooooohhh, I'm scared. Meanwhile, my semi is filled up and ready to roll. ;-)
