Lol I'm pretty sure he does!!! He also has a jasmine plant blooming too. A Grand Duke of Tuscany. He said it's making his apartment smell amazing and he also made tea out of the blooms. I'm so jealous.

I had a Sacred Jasmine (Jasminum sambac 'Grand Duke of Tuscany') growing in the yard at our house years ago and the fragrance was so nice but I do love fragrance of many Hoyas.

I agree, mjsponies has awesome hoyas ... I recently bought Wax Plant (Eriostemma 'Ruthie') from her and I'll definitely be on the lookout for her future listings on the Classified forum! Green Grin!

Hoya blooms are such a nice welcome to my shady yard! Here is just one. I love how she wound her way around the iron bars. Anyone want to take a guess at the ID of this Big Box Store plant?

Cheryl, with the white margins on some of those leaves, your lovely Hoya appears to be Krimson Queen Hoya (Hoya carnosa 'Tricolor')

Hoya pandurata 'Red' blooming. This one blooms in response to shorter day lengths. I love the dark rim around the leaves.
Smells like those little Red Hot candies. Yummy !
