Hoya macgillivrayi & Hoya stoneana from the EPRIC foundation




The EPRIC foundation offers new types of Hoya's every time I look, so, although I thought I wouldn't buy more Hoya's this year, I was seduced again. I don't know what it is with Hoya's, I only
have to look at a certain one and I am on fire again!:-)
The case was, I saw that they offered a Hoya macgillivrayi, and I already have one, but that one does
nothing more than: to be.
Here it is, it got 4 leaves, and no grow ,


So I thought to give it compagny, maybe when it is no longer alone in his pot, he would like life
more:-)
Here it is with the Hoya macgillivrayi from the EPRIC foundation, the new one is on the right.


The EPRIC foundation only sells rooted Hoya's, I am glad about that, because my little greenhouse
is still full with other Hoya cuttings.
A bit sad to let a Hoya travel alone, so I also ordered a Hoya stoneana,


The Hoya macgillivrayi likes a dry period in the winter, not that it must completely dry out,
but keep it on the dry side, it's necessary to let it bloom. When it makes a flower, take care not to
overwater it, but water real carefull otherwise the bloom may fail- this is what I read about it.
When the bloom opens up, than you can give a bit more water.
