Six years I've had this plant. It's grown so big I was quite sure it would never flower. However, I've been holding my breath ever since I first saw these tiny little buds. They're not so tiny now, and there's 7 of them. Do you think I can stop holding my breath now? Another shot, different angle. . I'm quite tempted to start doing my happy hoya dance.

So which one is this one. I have been gone for what seems like ages. Work, life and family took over. Lots of pictures to post from the last couple months. One day I suppose. Dee Quote | Post #920535 (2)

Thanks Alka. This waiting really is the pits. I'm almost glad I'm back at work so I have something else to occupy my mind. Christine Quote | Post #920867 (8)

Thanks for asking MJ! I didn't check this morning but they weren't close enough yesterday, but I'll check when I get home tonight. I have to go out again but I'll be home again before 8:30. And I'll send an email to myself to remind me! Christine Quote | Post #921334 (10)

No flowers yet. The buds look bigger this morning and I see a tinge of red on some of them. I'll keep everyone posted, I promise!! Christine Quote | Post #921505 (11)

Sometimes don't you just want to squeeze them just a little bit? Dee Quote | Post #922739 (20)
