I thought it might be a nice idea for a thread where we can all show off our house plants that are blooming :)

I'll start, all I have blooming now are a couple of hoyas...

Beautiful Lee Anne! Are either of those fragrant? I have one Hoya in bloom right now ... noticed it early this morning when I went out on the deck ... nice fragrance.

This isn't really a bloom and not considered a houseplant by those of us who live in the south because they are usually grown in the landscape, but I grow them in the ground as well as containers.

Hi Lee Anne! Both of those Hoya's are really pretty but there's just something about that cv. Sunrise that just grabs me! I really like the looks of that one!


Another one not considered a house plant down here but I have it in a container with a dwarf Schefflera.

After the Stephanotis blooms I'll send you some cuttings if you like Smiling
