Orchids don't have a monopoly on weird flowers ...

Received this as a cutting earlier this month. Surprisingly, not only has the cutting already rooted, it has even produced a flower.

Neat!! How nice it is enjoying its new home already. :) what does the plant look like?

I don't own one, but I imagine it looks a lot like a Hoya plant. Ive been wanting this plant for a long.

I have never heard of this plant...very cool.

At this point it doesn't look like much:

That's one of those little fruit cups so a "pot" of about 2.5 across and about 1.5 deep. Eventually, if it does well, the plant will look something more like this (not my photo):

The leaves are about 1" long and the vine thinner than an uncooked spaghetti noodle.

Perhaps a very small form of Hoya linearis. Really happy about the Ceropegia sandersonii cutting I received about a month ago in trade. Definitely a more robust vine and more succulent in appearance. Seems like it will be less delicate than the debilis. Hopefully it will root well and start growing soon.

Not sure if I should repot the debilis. No new surface growth since it bloomed. I can see that it has rooted but wonder if a bigger pot might be beneficial. Currently have it in one of my terrs and have debated taking it out ... but would hate to see it go downhill if it likes the terrarium life.

Here's hoping it grows into a monster for ya!
