How do you get this darn thing to bloom? I have a pretty nice size plant, loads of penduncles at nearly every node. I have tried bright light, shady, dry, moist....aargh.
It currently is in very bright light (sun under shade cloth) and kept moist, it is thriving but no blooms.
If anyone has any different ideas I would love to try it. I have had this for about 3 years now.
I am not very active here, but I wanted to share a picture of this gorgeous hoya with you.
The plant was purchased 2 years ago from SRQ hoyas (thank you Joni).
I did nothing special for it: It grows inside, hanging, rather shady (covered with bigger leaves of other hoyas), with very little substrate (about 100ml ?). No airconditioning in the room (closed the outlet, to keep the plants from cold air draft). The plant has many peduncles, which tried to bloom many times this summer, unsuccessfully, until this one (it had many more buds, but 5 – it is all what was left).
Thank you Olesya :0)
The post is edited, I was not aware I had to upload the images directly, I usually use Imageshack for forums.
Sorry about confusing "pachyclada" watermark - it is my name on all the foreign hoya forums (and my favorite hoya, too).
Our former employee gave me a small sprout of Hoya scortechinii. For me it was an amazing gift. I have always had a weakness for unusual plants. I can't get enough of this incredible yellow color.
