Hoya!

#181

This photo is a quick guess-and-shoot from underneath the plant, in order to highlight its most spectacular angle. This season, the hoya plant on my back decking has gone crazy - it started from a stray strand in an old hanging basket, given to me by a friend about eight years ago. The strand wasn't even meant to be there, and yet it's now a glorious plant that has the most amazing chains of blooms, most hidden to onlookers because the long strands hang so low to the decking boards.
