Hi everyone! We were recently debating H. carnosa rubra - the all green one vs. the variegated one. Well, I gave my rubra a serious whacking awhile back. It had gotten WAY out of hand and was looking a bit sad. All the cuttings have fattened up nicely, so I'd like to offer some up for the cost of postage.

If you'd like a start, go to "My Page" and e-mail me from there. I'll post back when I run out.

Denise, I just said it in an email, but hey, I'll say it here, too:

That carnosa rubra of yours does look awfully enticing with all its flecks and veins and bubbly personality and happy rambling about the stand! Seems like a great plant.

Thanks for sharing with the community! Very generous of you.

Now if you'll excuse me, there are a few trays of hoyas I need to talk to and give them your rubra as an example. ("Y u no like dat?!?!?!")

I love Denise's rubra! My cutting rooted very well and is on its way to greatness! LOL!
