Hooray… Hoya Flowering

This flower is quite unfamiliar in the world. Most Hoya species grow in Southeast Asia, Australia, and South India. Hoya has beautiful flowers and multiple benefits as an herbal medicine and air pollutant absorber. The flower bud is unique, it is like wax or porcelain so Hoya is also called wax-plant and porcelain flower.

I put my Hoyas collection on my home terrace and backyard. They need quite a long time to develop well. In the first year, they produced lots of leaves yet no flower bud. I was disappointed. Without flowers, Hoya is only an ordinary plant.

Until one morning I met a tiny flower bud. Finally, I got it. I felt satisfied as a flower lover I was able to cultivate Hoya and make them flower. The Hoya that I put in the backyard does not have flowers up to now. Perhaps they do not get the direct sun as the Hoya on the terrace has.

Next time I will tell more about the other Hoya species from my collection that are rarely met.
