First obscura bloom

15 years ago

Hi all, I've been absent from the forum for a while, have moved from the Ozarks to south Texas and my hoya's have NOT been thrilled. Most have made it but i've lost three or four so I was really happy that my Hoya obscura decided to bloom for the first time ever.

Hi Leon, WCB good to see you. Your obscura is huge for flowering for the first time. Looks very happy.

Cute flowers.....does it have a scent??

I too just moved from one end of the country to another, so I feel for you. Many of my hoya's died too, and there are a few more that just seem to hate it here.

Good luck with your hoya's.
