Just wanted to share a pic of my friend’s legacy Hoya. Her grandmother got the mother plant in 1965. My friend took a clipping when she went off to college (late ‘80s) and here it is today..

Wow! It’s blooming!😍  
What kind of Hoya is it?

Planta says Hoya Carnosa, wax flower

It looks great. I’ve seen other hoya carnosa plants online that live for decades.

What an amazing story and plant.

This is THE BEST! 😍  
My great grandmother had a monster hoya (hanging planter in a vaulted ceiling to the floor).  
We all have cuttings, that now my kids can have cuttings.  
It’s a wonderful memory of her now that she has passed on.
