Wax Plant, Porcelain Flower
Hoya carnosa


This Hoya plant started out as a cutting from my Grandmother's plant over 25 years ago.

Looks like it wants to take over the window :)

LOL

Yes it is! I'm waiting for it to stop blooming so I can cut it out of the curtains. I need to wash the curtains and the window.

I see you got your priorities set, first the Hoya than the curtain/window washing :)

Don't hesitate to drop in the Dave's Garden Hoya forum where there are many others with similar priorities ;)

have had a cutting of a plant for over 20 years- it is still in a little vase of water-I never knew what kind of plant it was- about 10 years ago it was growing nicely and I put an offshoot into a second vase so the plant was like a Siamese twin and it had some little flowers develop. We moved and it was knocked around and down to just 3 leafs but this spring it has started to come back and is growing very nicely- I have been afraid to plant it into dirt since it has been in water for 20 years....thank you for helping me give my old friend a name after all these years...
