Congratulations, Brad! That is just terrific news! I hope everything goes smoothly and you're feasting on fresh fungii fragrance in a fortnight.

Congratulations Brad I know you have been waiting for that one for a while. Hopefully you will be able to get a photo of some sort.

Thank you GG and Mike!

Mom found some batteries and I managed to snap these pictures of the two budding peduncles!

Woohoo! I like buds best when they are just getting started, even though there's the fear they won't make it to the finish line. They're just so hopeful looking. :)

I agree, GG! Hoya buds are hopeful looking! Heck, even when I see new growth on my plants, I feel hopeful lol.

Congrats Brad....

On the other hand I'm waiting for my javanica to keep the buds but they blast all the time........... since September..... I don't expect any flower more!

What?! That is so crazy, Mitzi! Do you think it doesn't like the heat?

I don't know what happen GG, but till now I only have one hoya in flower from all I bought..... maybe they are too young!!! Well we are in the beginning of winter now.... BTW it starts tomorrow!

How long does a cut take to flower????

Mitzi

Brad! I have been away for a while but I am guessing that you have been anxiously waiting for this one to flower? Fantastic there!

I can't wait to see what the flower looks like and thank goodness your camera is up and running.

Hi Mike!

Yes I have been waiting for this one to flower for a little while. It developed peduncles last summer. I read the flowers look (and smell) like carnosa's but fungii has more flowers in an umbel and the fragrance is milder. If you don't have it, I highly recommend it! The leaves are awesome!
