I bought this hoya as an already fairly large plant in February 2006. It didn't have any label, but on the shelf where it stood was a sticker with H. incurvula 'Sulawesii' written on it. When I looked for some info on the internet later the same day there was total confusion! In some places it said that incurvula had been changed to brevialata... Not that it surpriced me in this djungle of hoya names, but couldn't it, just this once, be "easy"??!!

The plant I bought was a fairly large hanging plant, but it was almost naked on one side... So, I took out my scissors and cut the plant down completely. I planted as many cuttings as I could in fresh soil and now all I have to do is wait to see if my "surgery" was successful. It sure got crowded in the pot!

The plant bloomed already when I bought it, but the photos didn't come out as good as I had hoped. It's said to be an easy bloomer so there'll be new and better photos soon. I hope!
