First blooms on my two Hoya Krohniana Black, one years old!😍  
The leaves are typically shiny and smooth. They were watered today and are a bit wrinkled. 🌸🌸🌸

Sooo cool I've had one of my hoyas for about 5 years and it still hasn't bloomed so great job getting flowers!!

Get them in direct sunlight, either direct morning east light or sunlight filtered through sheers in a south or west window. A very good grow light is an alternative. Try the Barrina or Sansi brands. My cheap $30 off brand grow lights didn’t make any of my hoyas bloom the first year. Fertilizer regularly with diluted fertilizer especially when the peduncles appear. 🍀🍀🍀
