My Hoya memoria plant started as a single unrooted cutting in 2008. This one seems to be a slow grower for me, it's still a rather small plant but blooms its little head off all summer and the fragrance is very nice. I live in zone 9b East, central Florida where it's hot and humid, and I grow this plant in a fast draining potting medium that consists of a lot of orchid bark mix and a little potting soil. I grow it on the dry side, watering maybe once a week during the hot summer months and not at all during rainy periods.
