That looks great Paul. Having never grown a Hoya....is it fragrant?
When I was much younger a neighbor had a Hoya with ivory flowers which used to literally drip with nectar. Don't know the species or anything, but it was pretty neat.

Really pretty, love that colour!
Dave, if it's anything like my white Hoya it's very strongly fragrant. Sweet almost overpowering honey smell.

That is lovely! Wish I could find one like it. I got one this summer that was ok smelling during the day, but at night it REALLY went overboard. I just recently got into hoyas and I am on the lookout for new pretty ones.

LOL. No this isn't one from you, Rob.
This one is not really fragrant at all that I have noticed. Several of my other ones (different species from this one) are fragrant, though. And yes, in all the cases of my fragrant ones, evening/nighttime is when they really kick out the scent.
