By the way, in case you do not know where to look to see if your plant is forming any peduncles:

Peduncles form at the node "line", between a set of leaves, so look there.

A diagram to help:

No I have not noticed any peduncles. Guess I'm in for a long wait.

A-What are your favorite fast bloomers that live in cooler climates? I live in Michigan, so all of mine are grown indoors. Some of mine are under lights.

Most hoyas can tolerate cooler climates! If you don't allow your temp. in your house to drop below 60F, and you don't expose your plants to cold drafts, many species will thrive just fine.

I only built my indoor greenhouse tent so my most picky/sensitive Hoyas survive during cooler temps. If I didn't have the handful of ones that don't NEED high heat/humidity, I could grow without the greenhouse- the majority of mine would do just fine without the extra humidity and heat that the greenhouse provides.

Some easy/early blooming cooler growers that thrive in normal household environments-

polyneura

lacunosa

obscura

DS-70

heuschkeliana (just be sure to keep out of cold drafts, and don't over-water)

nummularioides (super strong fragrance- can be over-powering)

ranauensis (super bloomer- blooms have a light, pleasant fragrance, and only last a few days, but, once the first set of blooms dies, a new set quickly replaces them. Mine has been blooming repeatedly since mid-April)

buotii, halconensis, and alagensis (absolutely love water- I grow mine in hydroton-filled glass vases- no drainage. I keep the bottom inch of the vase topped up with water at all times. SUPER fast growing and early blooming. If you grow them the way I do, just buy a reptile or seedling heat mat (about $14) to keep the water and root system warm in the cooler seasons. Did I mention they grow like kudzu?)

There are many others that bloom young and can tolerate temps to 55-60F (not like many people enjoy house temps below 66F in the winter, lol), but I gotta go outside to water, so I will let others chime in!

Oh...keep a large blanket or six handy; they can save your plants' lives, in the case of power outages in the winter. Move the plants to a central location of your house and throw a blanket over them. If they are on the floor, be sure to place a blanket under them, as well. Battery operated LED lights (including flashlights) can be used as supplimental heat, too, but they are expensive. If you have a fireplace or pellet stove, use the room they are in as your power outage room for your plants. You may need to mist your plants daily, due to the drying effect (regarding humidity) fireplaces and pellet stoves have.

Thanks, I have to go back to school in a few weeks. I have spent much of my summer on this site or playing with my plants. I have learned so much from you and the other contributors. I would love to get one for my classroom, but it gets down to about 60 at night in the winter. I was hoping to find one that would work. I love how some take on a personality and seem to grow before your eyes. (This would be fun for my kiddos to see.) I know I will get caught up in my teaching and forget to water it regularly. I do a community commitment with my students as we build a succulent garden together comparing plants and their differing needs to students and how our unique qualities make a beautiful garden. I do have a plant light for that. My students know how much I love plants and I have many painted rocks and such that they have made for me. With the conditions that I have mentioned, what is your go-to hoya? Cooler temps in the winter and drought tolerant? I really appreciate your insight.

Get waymaniae or pachyclada. Both like to be kept quite dry. Out of the two, pachyclada would be a better fit. It blooms early, can tolerate temps down to 58F (I haven't attempted to push below that),and has stunning leaves. It does tend to grow slower than waymanaie, though, and is more prone to dropping new leaves.

They both have beautiful foliage, so that's a plus!

They both will do fine, and if they show signs of unhappiness, a heat mat designed for seedlings will help.

Do you, by chance, have any cuttings of pachyclada for sale?

Not right now, sorry!
