Anyone have a good source for flowering fragrant hoya plants? I
inherited one from my mother-in-law and LOVE it. It makes my whole house
smell wonderful at night when it is flowrering. I have propogated
additional ones from that plant but I am hooked and want more variety.
Anyone know of a good, reliable source?

Hi Doll,

I don't have your answer, so maybe someone else will come along with ideas. In the meantime, Garden Web has a forum just for hoyas. Here's a helpful post.

There is also an exchange section for hoyas. If you don't have anything to trade, you might be able to get some for SASE - Self Addressed Stamped Envelope.

A forum just for Hoyas!?! THANKS!

Do a Google for Logee's Greenhouses as a source for Hoyas.

Another group you might consider is Houseplant Chat, it's a Yahoo
discussion group and I know for a fact there are several Hoya nuts that
belong there, including myself!

Grant Meyer is the list owner and has quite a nice collection of Hoyas
himself.

You are very welcome!! Have fun!

The best mail order source for rare and unusual Hoyas is Kartuz greenhouses
in Vista California. He is online at Kartuz.com or something like that. I
used to work for him and he is a great resource for information on many rare
and unusual plants and is regularly written up in magazines like Sunset or
Martha Stewart Living.
