| Hi everyone,
Here are pictures I took of my mindorensis this morning. I checked it this evening for fragrance and was I ever pleased! It reminds me of honeysuckle but less wafting and more mild. A definitive favorite in my collection! I'll get a picture of the flowers tommorrow.

| Very nice Brad, congratulations on the blooms! Your description of the fragrance makes me wish I could smell the blooms. Mike |

| Mike, it also reminds me of lilac or hyacinth (again, powerful perfumed flowers), . I just smelled it again and I lean more towards the lilac scent. Right now, it's my favorite fragrance but I've only smelled carnosa (forget what it smelled like, most people say chocolate), Red Buttons and lacunosa. Lacunosa is pleasant but strong. I read this was a frequent bloomer, so now you know why it's one of my favorites! Brad AKA Moonwolf |

| They look lovely, Brad. Mindorensis blooms were among the first that I did flips over when I discovered there was more than one hoya. ^_~ I still think they're awesome. |
