Hi Jan1_2007, Thank you for the compliment. I've owned hoyas off and on for several years now, but I've been hit with hoya fever a couple of months ago. Most of them are fairly new. My Serpens tries to bloom, but it gets what they call 'bud blast'. It flowered for me once, and the blooms are very pretty. I hope it blooms for me soon. Regards, TammyPie

Subcalva has awesome huge leaves. The newer leaves it arrived with have grown quickly into big leaves that are only smaller than my kerrii's leaves at the moment. I don't know if they're done growing yet either. I got it for the famed grape scented blossoms, but am loving it for the plant itself because the form and the leaves are so nice. I'd wholeheartedly recommend it. Pottsii seems to have shot up a 6 in vine out of nowhere. The last time I remember looking at it carefully, it was a little nubbin just starting to peep out. Tanna Island did not miss a beat and has been growing well in the week or so that I've had it. Usually new hoyas drop a leaf or abort new leaves right after I receive them in shipping, and I take that as a matter of course. Tanna Island doesn't seem to have cared one bit. And I'm finding buotii to be a gorgeous plant. These guys are surprising me. Yay hoyas! I was freezing last night too. It was warm during the day, and I was dressed for that when I left for work. The walk home though was quite chilly. I had to book it just to warm up. Wasn't ready for that. Kerrii's new leaf nubbin grew another millimeter, hooray! Ha ha.
