| Linda! Where have you been? So good to see you:-) In my Mom's eye, she says that is the best Hoya she has ever seen and that is from a person whom hates most plants. From me...Wow!!!!! You always have a way with your plants. Hi Gail! MIke |

| Sometimes, potting a plant 'up' can cause you to lose a season of blooming but other times it can result in more prolific blooming. You never know. But if it needs it, I just say take a chance and do it. It's an amaing plant. I would do whatever I had to do to keep it that way!! Denise in Omaha |

| That is a Gorgeous Compacta! It is my favorite Hoya! I have 4!! I will say I just repotted all of them and got them out of EA soil. I put them in a really free flowing loose soiless mixture. They are putting on tons of new growth and already seeing penducles forming. So if it's needing repotting (like mine were) they will reward you with many blooms later! |
