    hmmmm..... after reading some more posts, it seems I may have a choc. smelling Hoya in my collection -- is it true Carnosa smells like choc?

    Does anyone know of any unusual/interesting-smelling Hoyas?

    thanks,

    hi whisst,

    my krinkle 8 is not quite ready after looking at closely it this morning.

    I just potted it after receiving it in the mail - it got sort of dried out on the trip, and it had one mealie when it arrived, so I want to wait for a few weeks ..... I will be happy to do that when the plant recovers if you will remember to contact me again :)

    I'm likely to forget who/what/where with so many trade opportunities, so I encourage you to email me directly in 2-3 weeks asking if the Krinkle survived, and then I'll be able to recall who you are, and can hopefully send a cutting :)

    Do you have anything interesting to trade?

    thanks!

    i might be interested in clematis, hibiscus .... wonder if it's too late in the year to get them planted outside? What size do you have to trade?

    I really want to be generous with new hoya lovers since everyone was generous with me when I didn't have but one hoya.

    hi im not sure about planting them outside but you can definately plant them in pots and keep them inside until spring and then transplant them, that way you definately have a head start on them. i counted out the seeds i have and i have twenty five misc clematis seeds, and about forty plus hibiscus seeds. sorry thats all i have in those seeds, is that enough? please email me back.

    let's keep in touch by email and I'll let you know about the Hindu Rope.

    It seems a touchy plant right now!

    why don't you email me at plant.babies@gmail.com so I can get you into my contacts and we can keep in touch that way.

    :)
