I think all your hoyas look great, green with new growths. I believe you will have beautiful, full plants in no time. Congrats.

Xuan

I'm so sorry about your sunburned hoyas....

If you need more polyneura let me know - mine is pretty big.

Mentha, is the no ID the second to last picture, center plant, with the orange tag? If so, do you have a better picture? It looks like one of the lipstick vine plants to me, alot of them are easily mistaken for hoyas.

Also, don't feel bad about the sunburn. I scorched a few of my plants a few times, they bounce back eventually. Just cut off anything that looks extremely burned or ugly, leaving enough so that the plant won't die, and it will come back nicely. Within a year or less it will look great.

Ines,
The orange tag says "sold Rhonda" lol. I bought a bunch of plants and had him hold them for a couple days before I picked them up. It was labeled Hoya alba once, and something else the next time. Neither of which look like it. It's definitely not a lipstick plant, I can't keep those alive.

I love the fuzz!

Mentha, Nice Hoyas and whatever the No ID is? It is pretty though. Has it every flowered? Looks like a beginning of buds, maybe in your last picture or is it new growth?Congrats also on all the new growths. I hate it when I sunburn my plants, I had a couple of leaves sunburn bad enough that within a week or so, there was a hole right in the middle of the leaves. I sprayed it with a foliar spray and accidentally left it out too long in the sun. I was lucky only two of the leaves got burned that badly.

Mentha, now that I see it close up, it doesn't look like what I thought...but I have no idea what it does look like, nothing in my humble collection anyway.

I looked up Hoya alba, the only info I could find other than someone saying they thought it was a "carnosa hybrid" was that it is possibly related to Hoya graveolens...here is a link for that plant, not too similar to yours in foliage, though.

Maybe someone else will recognise it...

It would be nice to know what it is, but it doesn't really matter. At the moment it is about one of my favorite Hoyas, it's even easier (so far) than my obovata and kerrii. So that says something. It just keeps trucking along. It won't be long before it will need some sort of support.

I've read that Hoya australis sanae has fuzzy leaves, and the shape is very close from what I've seen in pictures. Flowers will tell me what I have. I'm just happy it's doing so well for me.

Mentha-
It looks just like what I have as australis sanae as well! Mine was a cutting I received as a trade with Denise, so hopefully she'll this as well. I, too, just love the fuzzy leaves! Mine seems to be growing pretty well!

Thanks Kelly!
It's nice to know that someone else has this plant.

This is my newest Hoya, S/He's 16 days old! DS wanted to name it Bob, I've named it "Hoya" lol. This was it's first time on a perch. Doves are reall messy, and I just bought 10 more!

Mentha, I know it's OT, but that little guy (girl) is so cute. Do you raise them as one would raise pigeons? My FIL had a coup when we lived in NY and my DH would eat the pigeon eggs: sucked them right out of the shell. UGH!!! to me, but he loved them.

ima,
My dad loves pickled quail eggs, I can't get past the yolk being a different texture. My friend has emus, ducks and geese we used to bake with the eggs. I prefer chicken eggs, I can handle duck eggs, but goose or emu eggs, no thanks!

I raise my doves like I was taught by my neighbor who raised champion roller pigeons when I was a kid. Only the homers had a large cote, the others were in a 1X1X2 ft square most of their lives. I will eventually (hopefully) build a flight for them but at the moment they are in 18X18X24 in canary cages. I want to eventually get into "Dove" releases for weddings. The doves used are not white doves, but homing pigeons and will have to be trained for at least 6-12 months before they will be ready for a release longer than 5 miles away. If I do get a flight up, this will also be housing for many of my plants also, I'll just have to remember to keep the seed below the plants ;)

My neighbor died of lung disease which is common for pigeon handlers. I will eventually have to get a mask to wear if I get any more than a few birds. I would like to get into fancy ringnecks like tufted, or silky.

On this one, in three days the leaf size on the stem traveling up has doubled, and the stem has also grown half an inch!

I'm sorry for posting another picture, but this plant is amazing. Look at it now, three days later, three new leaves and another inch of growth!

Hi, No need to be sorry. All the more the better. We hoya nuts love to see pictures.

Cindy

Mentha, I'm going to post an ID for your Orange Tag hoya.
(I think.)

I find these birds to be marginally better than pigeons...
And of course, you know. You'll have to hatch out your 'release' birds, as homers go back to where they were born. So, breed, breed, breed.

Now you've got me worried. My mom raises, RR's, Homers, fancy feet, lots and lots of doves; in addition to chickens, turkeys, guineas, finches and love birds.
Amongst the plethora of chinchillas, Green Iguanas, 7 horses, 47 rabbits and whatever else gets dumped or wanders onto the property.

I really LIKE that fuzzy fellow. Never seen it before.
Stand by!

Cena,
I know this is not hoya related, but I can hijack my own thread, right? I found you a cutting of "Very Sassy" :) I haven't seen it yet. Nick the cactus guy got it from Don Cravalho at the NORCAL show last weekend. More than likely it came from Gray/Davis when Don was down in SD, he was selling some plants from Rainbow Gardens recently on ebay. He mentioned visiting GD while down there. I know you were looking for it, so it's headed down your way. I'll throw in a cutting of the fuzzy hoya also.

Clarabella has two new stems on it and it is really an easy epi to grow. I really love her. I'll post a picture of her in a few days. It would have to be easy if my mom can grow it for two years straight without klling it.

We just got back from the fair and I was surprised. The plant show was sad looking. There was one epi oxy which had rot, got first place and one schlum which was really red and sunburned with a lot of corking. DS told me my plants could easily beat those two anyday.

Yeah, well... some folks set low standards because they don't know anything else.

I'm wondering with all those hoya cuttings sent your way, it took you This Long to become addicted.

Oh, I was just thinking about 'Sassy's. My goodness, got my heart to pounding.

Golly!!!!

Good news! Very Sassy is a small plant! I went to look for my plant info box to get your addy and someone had dumped it in a drawer, grrr! grumble, grumble, gripe! I needed to go through it and throw out dead plants' cards, but still it ticks me off someone stole my box and dumped my cards in a drawer! Anyway, I need you to send me an addy again since your card is missing. It will be a couple weeks before I can send it on down. We have a wedding to go up to in Aptos next friday, so I'm having to keep it tight for a couple weeks. I hope I can visit Castroville and get a couple big epies.

I think the reason I haven't really been addicted to hoyas is because most of the cuttings I received did not survive most didn't even root. I started buying large plants and finally figured out what care will cause at least survival, if not a little growth. I've fought really hard not to become addicted because I knew once I was I'd put aside my epies and rhipsalis. I haven't yet, but it's close, it will be tight this winter when I bring everyone in.

It's even got two new stems growing :)
