Hi suetran1, Sorry I've been busy and haven't a chance to check my spam mail. I'll check, but could you please re-send me an email again? Thanks!

Hi Toby, I also noticed you don't have a e-mail attached to your my page. Without that we cannot contact you to set up trades. You need to go to your member page located at the bottem of the page here and add that info please.

Thanks Carolyn, My only experience with Hoyas so far is with a carnosa I grew from a cutting, so I'm unable to identify these without them being in flower. Google image search has helped but I can only do so much with it.

D. Don't grow it in full sun or you'll end up with a sunburned plant. The ones I put outside (I keep most inside...) I have in shaded spots. A bit of morning sun won't hurt them, though if they've been in a completely shaded spot, you have to acclimate it to getting sun over a couple of weeks. I'll bet what you have is the common carnosa (I've linked to one on MyHoya.com below.) Samoensis is one that would be more difficult to come by. As for flowers, they flower when they're ready... I know, that's vague. I've had rooted cuttings bloom, and I've had plants 6-8 years old and huge that finally bloomed. Be content to let it put on new growth, fertilize it when it's growing, and be patient. The flowers are well worth the wait. Check out the postings about Eleanor's VF-11 on this site.
