Kelly I would love to get my hand on the speckle lacunosa. Every time I go cross broader shopping I look for one.
I also have H.Bella that always has buds and then they yellow and fall off. One day I guess.

Hoya bella leaves stippled
Q

Have you checked for bugs? It sounds like it could be infested with something. I have lots of Hoyas under florescent lights and when they grow too close to the light tubes the leaves turn yellow and burn but they don't fall off like that. I have never grown lacunosa like that as it in my experience likes shade. So maybe you should move it... but check for bugs first so you don't spread it around. I'd keep the cuttings together to make a nicer, more dense plant as the cuttings grow bigger. Both lacunosa and bella has flowered very early for me. Once their roots were well established they started flowering... I'd say after a few months. /Maggie

My first Hoya -- bella or lacunosa?
Q
Comments (5)
Yeah, I did some research and it's lacunosa. Thanks, guys. If I went from a nice cozy FL greenhouse, got stuck on a dark, crowded, unheated truck in March, stuck in a cold, dark spot, then transported to a warmer (60s at the moment) place and given a tepid shower, I'd drop *my* flowers, I'll tell ya. Pirate Girl, I used to hang out at the AV forum. I have pH difficulties, and sadly dumped all my AVs. Now I'm growing *everything* else; orchids, mini Begonias, an Episcia, some Chirita tamianas, mini Sinningias, and my first Cryptanthus, among others. :-) At least these plants like me. Korina

Besides Nummularioides, what other hoya's drop peduncles after bloom
Q
Comments (2)
I find Lacanosa cv. Sunrise peduncles that have flowered many times, laying on the floor underneath the pot often. My Multiflora usually looses the previous peduncle after flowering twice, and while the next one is budding up. I have heard the cv. Mathilde looses it's peduncle after blooming once, mine has never bloomed but has blasted buds then ejected the peduncle right after. Marco

white sections on stem of Lacunosa Bella
Q

Were the white sectons little bead-like areas? If so, that's probably dried sap from an old injury and nothing to worry about. That being said, there is a "hard" pest you need to look out for on hoya plants. It's called hard scale, and it looks like this: (photo crefdit to dayliliesinaustralia.com.au) Scale comes in an array of colors, but the only white scale I know of is cottony scale, and it is a soft bodied scale.

OH My GOSH Kelly, that speckled Lacunosa is gorgeous, I'd never seen it in bloom before. Everything else is lovely too, but I lust after speckled Lacunosa!

Sorry, I haven't had a chance to get back to you, I see you've found how to amend your info. to reflect location. I did look w/ an eye towards responding to you, but you beat me to it.

Just read your profile -- aquarium water, that's why they're all bloomin' their fool heads off for ya. I'm soooo jealous! Nicely done!!

Granted I'm still sort of new to hoyas, but I'm totally stunned to have 6 currently in bloom. Hoya vitensis now has buds forming on 3 peduncles, brevialata appears to be budding up for the second time. Keep watching fungi as it threw out a peduncle a couple of months ago... This has been such a fun surprise!

Wonder if the aquarium water does have something to do with it? I should test the water parameters!

Between lacunosa and nummularioides the scent is a little overpowering this evening....

Nae, it's well worth the wait! This is a first for me!

So how long have you had these hoyas Kelly, and did you start them from cuttings or did you buy then as plants? Cause they are definitely worth the wait!

Golden,

These are all Exotic Angel plants, so the baskets are full. I think I've had lacunosa and nummularioides since 2007 - both of those have bloomed before. I've had bella 'Luis Bois' since last August or September - that's my favorite of the three! The foliage is just so bright!

You guys are lucky - I have never seen Exotic Angel plants out my way. I have to either order in from Pike Lake or David Liddle - wish I could just go to the store and pick them up!

Golden - I can't walk into any of my local garden centres or supermarkets and find Hoyas either, so you're not alone. I did use to have a garden centre that stocked the variegated Hoya carnosa, carnosa and australis, but I moved away from there. Now I have to wait until they're advertised on Ebay. I'm quite excited because it's started to be time for them to come back online and I've spotted one I want! Must remember to not spend all my money on plants... ah well!

And I've never seen a European order to David Liddle - I'm sure they happen, but I've never been involved, so I'm not sure whether I'll ever get a package of plants from Australia!

Golden I feel your pain.Living in Canada its next to impossible to buy hoyas.Check out eBay, There's a guy from Thailand that sells hoya world wide. I have not brought from him personally but I think some from this forum has,maybe they will chime in.
I go shopping 1 or 2 times a month a cross the broader and I see EA plants almost all the time.Good luck in finding hoyas.This addiction can get very bad.Some times it all I think about.
