My sister bought this for me at a nursery in Flagstaff. And of course I will need a new big pot to go with a new big hoya :)
Looks like I will need one more hoya after all
Just a plain ole tomatoe cage..
I did a little dumpster diving. :O Found this clothes hanger thingy and had my husband help me haul it home. He added another bar on it, and now my youngens can breath.
Wow what a pretty tomato cage, I love it. That clothes hanger rack is a great idea. Kudos to hubby:-)

Tami-Shary did good---that thing is to cool !!! Love the cloths hanger thing..................Sisto 1
Oh wow...those are two really neat ideas. I LOVE that clothes hanger. Must get one for my back patio. Wonder where I should start scrounging?

Good growing, Tami! The garmet rack it perfect and great find on the tomato cage, Sandy! Your plants look super too. Hoyas seem to "spur" creativity. My X-Husband used to work close to the University and he was the King of dumpster diving. He used to bring home the most amazing stuff at the end of semesters when the college kids left.
Your garmet rack will be great to use in front of a window in the winter. Who needs curtains when you have Hoyas?
Thats what that darn thing is called a garment rack. I do plan on bringing it in this winter for the excess hoya that somehow accumulated.. Thats one thing I loved about having rental properties (the only thing) they left some great stuff behind.
Have you or do you all have Habitat for Humanity in your areas? It's kinda like a Good Will store but better. Marcy I have seen garment racks there befor. Last time I scrounged through there they had 1X8X12 boards with 6" holes all the way down the board. I thought that would be cool to put 6" clay pots in and then my taller hoya in the clay pots and then they wouldn't tip. Well it had a huge black widow on it and I just wasn't gonna grab it. I do have my limits and thats about the only spider that makes my hair stand up... Check them out there is alot of cool stuff there.
Marcy--We have 2 other sisters....Shary lives in Prescott close to Tami !!! she is the one that found the great tomato cage. Sure wish she would send me one ..Oh and the baby of us all Lori lives in The Big Ski Country of Northern Montana.........Lori is even starting to get into this Hoya thing--That would make all four !!!!!
