Just that some hoyas may need more water than you would think, really. I water this one every two days, it never gets dry. If it dries out at all the new leaves look weird and a couple of old ones will drop, as will the peduncles. It’s in an airy soil mix, but I am constantly surprised that it isn’t dying of root rot, lol.

Have you tried using an orchid fertilizer to get yours to bloom? The miracle grow spray seems to get them going, I use that once a week (it’s very weak) and also use the shultz liquid fertilizer at about half strength every second watering or so, during the growing season.

Yes. Cheese protects against death from any cause.

The real question is, why aren’t you eating more cheese?

There’s nothing more disappointing than clicking into a thread because it looks like it might be interesting or fun, and realising 90% of the comments are the same old, tired jokes, repeated ad infinitum.

Kicking corporate ass sounds like exactly what I need right now. Congrats on making your dreams come true! I’d love a paperback if I’m lucky enough to win.

As much as I’d love these monsters to go to war with each other, it would mean civil war in the country with the most nuclear warheads, and that makes the prospect something I can’t celebrate.

Nice! How long does it take to completely unfurl? I have a McColley’s Finale that never unfurls without help; I think my house is too dry for it. Really should give it away. ☹️

Hoyas are so neat, they have a wide variety of leaf and flower shapes. I should have a couple more blooming in the next few days, I’ll post pics!

Right? They should’ve gone with fairy slipper; I feel like fairies would have fancy slippers.

Love a good Cold War spy book, how is it so far?
