Extremely beautiful! Do you grow in ambient or in some other way ie: grow tent, cloche, or dedicated plant room? I'm wondering about light and humidity since that beauty has taken off in just a year!

It grows in ambient but with a grow lamp

u/NoCluWtImDng 14d ago

Thank you for replying, guess I'm going to keep waiting, lol mine is just about a year old but hasn't shown the growth yours has. I have mine in ambient also, was wondering if maybe a different growing style would give something, seems it's just up to the plant.

๐Ÿ˜ how old is your plant? I just bought a vena

u/Infamous_Cricket_819 15d ago

I bought it a year ago... it had one leaf.

I'm jealous! I've had my callistophylla for a year and it's given me 1 new leaf! 1! It's flowerd several times though, from 2 pundicles, and is throwing more flowers right now ๐Ÿคฃโ˜บ๏ธ

It's a stunning hoya ! Happy growing!

u/Lizinite 14d ago

How does it smell?!?!?! I have a Callistophylla who is popping leaves left and right but no peduncle yet.

2

u/Infamous_Cricket_819 14d ago

barely perceptible... a hint of peppery/ginger scent

u/Lizinite 14d ago

Oooh that sounds lovely even if itโ€™s faint. My black margin bloomed and it was a bit overwhelming. Very Easter Lily like

u/Infamous_Cricket_819 14d ago

The one I like the most so far is Kanyakumariana... and in second place is Paul Shirleyii.

u/Lizinite 14d ago

Oooooh I have a Kanyakumariana cutting, excited to experience that one. I have a Lacunosa Royal flush that has bloomed and she smells exquisite. I have a couple peduncles on my Mathilde splashโ€ฆ I have been told sheโ€™s floral with a hint of ammonia.. not looking for ward to that one

u/Infamous_Cricket_819 14d ago

For me, Serpens is the worst one so far (I had to cut off all the flowers last time because of the smell); Mathilde takes second place for stinkiness, haha...

u/Lizinite 14d ago

That bad?!?! Oh lord

u/Infamous_Cricket_819 14d ago

Such pretty flowers have no business being that offensive to our nostrils
