My Hoya Cumingiana put out several blooming peduncles that smell very sweet. You can smell the scent outside from 6 feet away! The scent is sugary and fruity. It smells like a bag of tropical candy with sweet flowers, mango and citrus notes. It’s supposed to smell stronger at night. It wasn’t overpowering at 9am. I thought my neighbor got a new fabric softener. 😍🪴🍀

Your Hoya Cumingiana looks so good—the leaves are healthy and the blooms are gorgeous! And that hanging wall is amazing, you’re giving me ideas for my own wishlist 😍

Wow stunning!! Do these like high humidity?

They like the heat and humidity. I’m in south Texas (zone 9) and you can cut the humidity. It also does well in the house in winter with a lot lower humidity levels and lower temperatures. I keep it in a south window in winter. It only blooms outside with the help of direct morning sunlight.
