Hoya Carnosa

Got off my carnosa!!!

Are those yellow bugs or the flowers. .

Yellow aphids @grantham 😠😠😠 Well they were... Now they are squished!

@KathyB back home we call Hoya ...Wax plants...I see you have HOYA and Wax Plants..

@grantham I call them hoya. Until GT I had never known them as anything else. The plant links are from the GT encyclopaedia so u get all sorts of names for things. It's really interesting to find out the names that other people use! 😄

@KathyB just spoke to me sister in Zambia and she reminded of the other name...Indian rope plant...

@KathyB herewith a site you can go onto in South Africa. ...Plantae Orchids they have all about HOYA and the different types..if you want to know more about them.

Is this one from your garden or do you keep it indoors?

@ulrikagustafsson This one is an Australian native so I'm lucky because it easily grows outside here. 😁

It's so very different from where I live! 😉 My mother has one growing on a trellis (is that the right word?) It originally came from her mother.

@ulrikagustafsson mine is a family heirloom too! Is from a piece of my grandma's which may have been from her mother's!! 😀

What a coincidence! 🙂I really like this flower, it's very pretty, but if I'm to inherit it I'm not sure it's going to survive my caretaking😬. I'm better at the garden plants. We call it porcelain flower here.
