I am THRILLED that my little-hoya-that-could has its first bloom!!! Sheβs a 1 year old (from cuttings off of a much older plant) that has just defied expectations in growth. And the smell isβ¦.DRUMROLL PLEASEβ¦feet! 1000 year old feet! Lolol Or possibly swampa$$? Volleyball socks that were left in a bag for four weeks? A decomposing body? πππ€£π€£π€’π€’π₯΄π΅π΅βπ«Itβs sooooo bad! Lol!! Iβm torn because itβs the most beautiful thing Iβve ever seen! Whatβs crazy is that if you put your nose to the blooms, it smells like chocolate! But my entire sunroom smells terrrible from it. So interesting!

@MamaLinne OH NO Deb!!! (Swampa$$ πππ)
Iβve heard the scents can really varyβ¦maybe thereβs a silver lining to mine never blooming π

@MamaLinne Such beautiful blooms! , too bad about that smell.
@debbiedo @MamaLinne sounds like maybe your hoya is high in indoles π·π©π« can smell really bad in high concentrations, like π©, rottingβ¦. uh, previously alive things, coal tar, or surprisingly like chocolate or jasmine in very low concentrations π€£π€£ interesting that when youβre close it smells better π€π€―
