Succulent Ramblings

I like to ramble on about my plants... and other things! My hope is to log the progress of plants and talk about my frustrations with others. So, tune in, turn on, or drop out (if you find it boring!)

Well, several Hoyas are already responding to the longer days with new growth, inlcluding...

H. mindorensis has a nice little new vine with baby leaves.  It's in the sunroom in front of the east windows.

H. crassicaulis - I have two of them, one in my bedroom and one in the sunroom, again in front of the east window.  It has at least two new growth points, one is right down by the soil line!

H. wayetti is above my sink in the kitchen, in the north window.  I see an itty-bitty new leaf popping!  This is the one I'm growing in hydroton.

H. coreacia is in the greenhouse.  This is one of the thin-leaved species and I had a hard time getting it going.  Either last year or the year before, it took off like a bat out of hell and has done beauifully ever since.  I found several new growth points on it.  YAY!

H. parviflora, one of the slowest growers I've EVER had, has what appears to be a new leaf.  It has that rubbery feel and it's darker than the others - I can't be 100% positive, but I'm keeping my fingers crossed that this may be the year it gets a real growth spurt!

More on that next time...  I also went through my trays of rooted "for sale" plants, picked out those that had died, cleaned up the ones that were fine, and made a list of what I'll offer soon to clear out and make room for new plants to root.  This is what I came up with...


Hoya australis ssp. tenuipes

Dischidia acuminata, fasciated form 

I listed them all separately like this so I can put prices on them.  The Dischidias are all small starts, and if I put them together in one pot, I'd probably ask $15, so I'm going to ask $3 apiece for those.  I have a few give-aways, which I'll give with orders.
