Very beautiful and I think a close-up or crop of just the blooms would be great also, the focus detail is great.
Thank you very much and appreciate your suggestion, Charles. I do have some closeups, but decided I wanted to limit it to one photo and I liked this composition.

John, that is a lovely sight. I’ve never seen one in bloom!
I really appreciate your comment, Carol. The blooms are pretty, but the fragrance is what is really special. When I opened the door to the back room the room was filled with the fragrance and the little 2 ½" bloom was 25' away.

Nice shot, John. Ain't it nice to have a wife AND A PLANT for that long?
Thank you very much, Ken. Ditto the last part of your comment. Both of us and the plant are blessed with excellent health so we'll see how life unfolds.

Appreciate your comment, RCPO. The plant and both of us are in excellent health so 15 or 20 would be pretty cool.

I gave the Hoya plant to my wife during our first year of marriage 52 years ago. It hasn't bloomed for the past few years, so this was a most pleasant surprise. Hoya blooms have a very distinct, pleasant fragrance that fills the room. Recommend Downloading!
