I have a bunch of these plants I can sell for $10 each. Yes, some are larger than others...and starting with the largest it will be first come first serve. Shipping USPS Priority Mail will be in the Fixed Rate Box the plant can squeeze into....whatever that rate is....and I will ship when the weather is warmer. I will even unpot and send roots wrapped in plastic bag to be able to scrunch it into a smaller box.... Hey...hoyas are tough!
This cultivar is a cross between H. shephardii and Hoya carnosa... is cool tolerant, doesn't need a lot of water and grows OK in lowish light...very much like H. carnosa in it's needs.....
I got one from you last year and it is growing great without much attention. Even re-potted this year in a bigger pot . An attractive plant.
I hope I get to see blooms this year, now that it has settled down.
Carol, I will take one....I have Minibelle but the leaves are not as long as you have on a picture. If there are still choices, I like the really long leaves one. Thank you!!
Yes I do. Too cold for shipping this month. It is quite cold with temps in the 20's. Snow and or rain is expected for the weekend. Uggggh.
Thanks for keeping them nice and warm.

Will do. Thank you so much.
I will be putting some more plants up for sale... I really don't need multiples of plants I have and I want to reduce work...less work = more painting time for me. AH - retirement.

OK - you asked for it....
This is a painting in progress
Not happy with the background and I need to darken the center so the frilly parts show better.
Gosh...thanks for asking.....
Here's one I think I finished....but there's one leaf I may have to work on....
H. imperialis is blooming now...I am thinking of taking a mess of photos and painting...and I really want to get less realistic and more ..... loose....so....who knows.????
WOW, Carol! Pretty impressive! I ..... I lost my words - got overwhelmed for a moment . It's very beautiful!!
You did mention that you paint in one of the forums but for some reason I got 'shy' to ask you about it ... But I am glad I asked this time.
Did you go to school for that or it's your natural talent? I really like the dark background and bright flowers.
I would love to see a painting of Hoya (Imperialis).

Oh, thanks so much! I am working on not being so realistic!!!!... I've been 'trying' to paint for many years...picking it upand dropping it again when things got too busy...but now this is what I want to do all the time! It's pretty rural here so I depend a lot on Online workshops which have been eye opening!!!!!
I've not put anything I've done on line because it issuch a workin progress...your comments make me feel really good.
Beautiful, Carol. They look so real I wanted to reach out and touch them. I admire anyone with artistic talent and so glad you're finding more time to paint.
I agree. The paintings are very beautiful! I do admire people with artistic talent too...It's amazing and unrealistic to me. I can't draw or paint at all, even though I love paintings a lot. Well, I do can draw...on a computer that is...I am an engineering CAD designer, but nothing with my hands...too bad.
I have been collecting, studying and selling hoyas for about 10 years. This Cubit is about growing hoyas, and about the hoyas I have to sell. I welcome any and all hoya lovers, whether you want to buy or not. Hooked on Hoyas is another great Hoya sight
