The fuzzy flowers on caudata are just so cute. And patella is very interesting! I had no idea it bloomed like that.

Hi Edj I have just seen some gorgeous photos of patella online. I would love to get this plant, but as it's one of the "fussy" ones, I just don't have the space for it at the moment. The website below is one of the best for looking up care instructions for hoyas. I couldn't find Wallichii for sale anywhere in Oz, but I'm sure someone must have it. Have a look on Ebay I guess. David Liddle unfortunately doesn't have it on his list. Here is a link that might be useful: Hoya Patella

I think my CBNI list is sigillatis, caudata, patella, paulshirleyii, waymaniae, deykeae. There are also a number that are CBNI for the first couple years and then seem to stop being so once they are established. When I moved my variegated bella under artificial light and in moist coir, it started behaving, but I agree this one is kind of... withholding? Ironically, I did the same thing with serpens and it apparently preferred a higher peat ratio and natural light, so I'm going to go back to what I was doing before. There's a reason they say: If it ain't broke...

That's a beaut. I used to be all about the foliage because as a newbie that's all you ever see. But patella and siariae are currently right at the top of my must-have list. Thanks for sharing.

Awesome! Glad to see it thriving in your care! I keep forgetting to photograph mine, as it is kept in my super high humidity tent with other divas. I tend to ignore them, only looking when I water/check for bugs. Terrified to open the tent much, might lose the micro-climate, lol!

Thanks Tika and Popmama!! I do love the fuzzy blooms on Caudata too... Patella flowers finally fully opened...

Wow I see you are growing them outdoors in a more natural habitat. I'm so envious. Mine are all indoors in either a window or under artificial lights. You sure do have a beautiful setting!

Thanks Popmama!! I'm fortunate enough to be able to grow them outdoors mostly year round here in Central Florida. The patella is in a small hanging basket hanging under a large oak tree, what happened over the years is the vines have grown up the branches of the oak tree Lol, NO way for me to cut off the vines without killing them so I just let nature take its course :o)...sometimes I have blooms up the Oak branches or among the leaves which is kind of cool...
