My sweetheart bloomed! šŸ˜ Iā€™ve always heard Hoya blooms have a sweet scent, but I donā€™t smell anything with this girl. I donā€™t mind though, for my first experience with a Hoya, I am so happy Iā€™m doing something right.

    Try smelling your bloom again in the evening, this is the time when Hoya are pollinated and Iā€™ve found some of mine only produce a scent at night.

    I also heard that not all Hoya produce scent. I just searched and it says Kerrii produce faint smell or no smell at all.

      I havenā€™t noticed a scent, but I also havenā€™t intentionally sniffed the flowers. Iā€™ll check for myself and see if
