That was the heyday of my manipurensis growing. I've really struggled with that plant of late.

That is quite a coincidence Jordan. I think it is a testament to luck more than anything else, but it does blow me away about how well these have done when I have struggled and ultimately kill two of these plants in the past.

It does have a very different look!

I really think that pollination on my manipurensis must have been done by fungus gnats. Although I have a ton of flowers on my one remaining plant, there is absolutely no sign of pollination. I think that is because I am 100% gnat free. I have to say that this is not really a plant worth seeking out unless you can pick one up for really cheap, as honestly it is not very exciting.

I have always thought that this plant belong in the Dischidia genus as well! The last couple years I have really struggled with this Hoya. Recently though after spraying the plant with sulfur because I had a flat mite infestation, the plant has now started to grow like crazy. If you are struggling with your plant consider that it might have an invisible pest problem.

It is a cute little plant!

Thank you Lucy the Cat!

Thank you Miao! That is part of the reason that I love Hoyas so much; you just never know what could happen.

Thanks Lynda!

Thank you Kat! Happy Holidays!

Thanks George!

I think it used to be in the Dischidia genus and it got moved to Hoya, but to me it is a Dischidia and acts just like one!

@@DougChamberlainVTHoyas hahaha❤️👍

Good question. I will announce it on my daily blog at Ramblings on vermonthoyas.com when the first ones go up for sale. It should be mid to late April and my eBay seller name is erbtarzan24.

Doug Chamberlain thank you! Looking forward to them :)

Those trellises are just simple vinyl coated wire bent into a hoop.

@@DougChamberlainVTHoyas I've never seen wire like that. Where can I get some? I love that it's colored.

@@ScaryFear They are available at the bottom of the page from this link: www.chulaorchids.com/stakes-and-wires.html

Thanks George! My eBay seller name is ERBTarzan24. Don't look for them until at least April 15 as it is just too cold here to chance shipping any earlier.

Doug Chamberlain FANTASTIC thank you for the information 😀 George 🤗

No in house sales right now, when we are all so scared of the virus. My manipurensis now has 9 seed pods on it. Crazy little plant. Once you get the plant big enough it is not that hard. Pretty much the same care as any other Hoya. This one wants to only be watered when pretty dry. Does not seem to use very much water. Not too much light either or the leaves turn red which is a sign of stress. Like all Hoyas; does better with good humidity.

Perfect, thank you. She is already putting out three new leaves. We have about 50% humidity inside with radiant heat. Do all your Hoyas go outside in summer? Stay well and enjoy this beautiful day. Hopefully the snow is officially over.

@@shannonlemley-willis281 I put about 60% of my Hoyas outside for the summer. I am limited as to space outside as well as inside.

Yes, it was.

It likes filtered light - not to bright, or the leaves turn red from stress, temperature 20-30C, water when dry. Like most Hoyas does better with good humidity. Hope this helps!

Sadly those are long gone, and I currently have none for sale.

@@DougChamberlainVTHoyas thank you :(

I occasionally sell there but am all done for the year. My moniker is erbtarzan24.

I see,thanks!

They develop roots really quickly for me in water, and then I pot them up in tiny pots of regular Hoya mix.
