Wow! You grow some really interesting things! I have seen liverwort growing on the edge of a lake but I never thought of taking some home. I have tried sundews and some hardy orchids on logs, floating in my koi pond. I can't remember the spelling of the hardy orchid. Something like 'pegonia'

I've got a decent collection of Sarracenia, Drosera, Pinguicula, Utricularia, Dionaea, a Cephalotus, Nepenthes (a few really rare ones), and some bog associate plants. Got a few aquatics as well.

I love hoyas, used to have some. I never got those nice all white leaves like yours has!
In order to bring this plant into flower, yes, you need to exposed them to strong light. Most people grow them as indoor shade decoration piece and never see flowers.
well, not particularly pretty, but people have different ideas.
I think leaves are nice enough. |

One of my hoyas hangs on my front porch in a glazed terracotta hanging 'basket'. It has 6 bunches of flowers just opening now on it. The leaves suffer a little for being in the sun but it is also my best flowering one.
I also grow a range of carnivorous plants, epidendrums and water plants. Most of the rest of the garden is multipurpose being made up of produce plants that I also landscape with(blueberries, kiwi fruit, fruit and nut trees, etc). It's very much a work in progress at this stage as my house isn't even built yet but I'm giving the gardens a head start. |

I like the fragrance of hoya flowers. A lot of people grow saneveieria and never see flowers for the same reason. They are wonderfully fragrant.
