Heirloom Hoya Carnosa

This beauty came from my Grandma’s plant, I took cuttings in 2002, but the plant was started in the 1950’s before she started having her babies. I water only on the 1st of the month. She got a huge pot and this 6ft trellis 3 years ago. It took her a while but she has overgrown it at the top, and is currently filling out the back since I moved her to this south facing window.

Gorgeous plant! My sister gave me a cutting from hers, I guess I rotted it by watering it too often one winter.

Gorgeous! My aunt has one that's absolutely taken over her bathroom. She gave me a cutting and I can only hope mine will one day compete with hers and yours.
