Very nice! Does it get no natural light? How close is the closest window? Are those grow bulbs in the fixtures?

Pretty amazing! Curious to know what kind, any chance of a closer shot pls? I can' tell what kind of Hoya from here, but it's great what ever kind!

It is so beautiful. Okay, questions, please... What kind of Hoya is it? Does it just attach itself to the brick? What kind of pot do you have it in? (I'm a noob and I'm still learning.) That is really amazing. Thanks for sharing.

It is truly a beautiful Hoya display. The only problem I have with plant set ups of this type is how do you clean the dust off the leaves? I like to give my Hoyas a shower at least twice a year to wash off all the accumulated dust and clean the pores out. It may just be me, but I can almost hear the plants give a sigh of relief after I'm done.

I guess if you have an abundance of patience you could hand wash each and every one of the leaves. I don't have that kind of time. Other than that one maintenance issue, I love the arrangement.

Wow!! That is great looking Hoya and I love the way you have it growing, very Cool!!

It kinda looks like Carnosa to me...I'll wait for your answer on the variety.

Thanks for sharing!

Very beautiful. :) How long has it been in your care, out of those 40 years?

@ Doug

I hear you on dust. Most of my plants get heavily sprayed with water at the same time that I water them, and they never seem to get dust build-up, but the plants I keep in the windows behind other stuff get so dusty and gross. I try to take them out at least once a year and give them a soak in the shower, like you. It just seems like the dust must impede how well the leaves are able to function, so I don't think you're imagining that sigh of relief.

I think where it lives, up against the bricks, it could be heavily misted regularly⦠it's just a matter of getting up to the top leaves LOL. Maybe the dust doesn't collect as bad in that location, though.

The wall opposite the plant is all windows.Those are not grow bulbs. It is not attached. I work the new shoots in and around the marble stones. The pot is clay. I try and dust once a year by wiping the leaves with a damp cloth. It is a Carmosa. I have had it for 42 years. Got it as a very small plant. I had to transplant it last summer. I had to use a sharp knife to cut the roots from the pot. It is still under stress from the move. But I was told it might be stressed for a year. It has some new growth already.
