I just spent an hour and a half uncovering, watering, and taking pictures of the plants.
|
The happy family. I tend to keep the Hoyas up top and everything else falls in line. |
|
Can you tell I love Coral? She's finally kind of trailing like she is supposed to. |
|
This Echeveria has recovered nicely from being bitten up by a cat (presumably - we have a lot of strays). |
|
H. var macrophylla is doing well after having stressed vines from shipping. I had to cut them back and they don't seem to mind. |
|
This is by far the quickest growing Hoya I have. It's H. fitchii and though I know the vine gets kind of washed out at the end...it's at least a foot and a half long. |
|
H. pubicalyx 'Bright One' is so cute. :) It's a happy grower, too. |
|
H. mindorensis is FINALLY growing some more. It's one of the slowest growing Hoyas I have. |
|
The next two photos are of newer Hoyas I forgot to document. This is H. merrillii. |
|
And this is H. clandestina. It's starting to grow for me. |
|
|
|
And now we start with the cuttings. This is H. limoniaca. |
|
With its peduncle. |
|
H. elliptica, which I am very surprised at the rate it rooted! This Hoya doesn't usually travel well, so it's finally perking back up. |
|
H. cv Mathilde, which just lost two leaves. Oh well. |
|
H. mymrecopa. |
|
H. lacunosa 'Thai Clone'. So far, it seems to like me MUCH more than lacunosa 'Sno Caps'. We shall see. |
|
H. leytensis. Such a cute little Hoya. |
|
Here are the other huge cuttings from Ebay. Much larger than Joni's, but slower to root. |
|
H. lobbii (red flowers). Part of it broke off during the initial soak so I just made it another cutting. The top leaves look rough, but it is finally rooting. |
|
The other part of the H. lobbii cutting. |
|
Cute leaves on it, too. |
|
Oh thank the Hoya gods...this one (H. fungii broad form) is finally rooting! I was afraid it would just rot away. The roots are definitely nothing to write home about yet, but it's not dead! |
|
I mean, look at these leaves. |
|
The collector thinks this is H. villosa. She knows better than I, so until I can refute it, the name stays. |
|
Whatever it is, the leaves are really pretty. I was looking at H. globulosa (mostly because it originates in China) and these two are supposedly very similar. |
|
This was a bonus cutting! H. macgillivrayi. It's happily rooting along. Grow grow grow! |
|
H. fischeriana, which looks the most beat up of them all. It is thin-stemmed after all. |
|
H. fungii typical form. |
|
That's enough of a pic dump. :)
