# The first set of blooms finally opened on my Hoya MB 1379…

_Posted by Sunny on 2025-07-14_

The first set of blooms finally opened on my Hoya MB 1379 (Nicholsoniae x Aldrichii)! The flower petals are velvety! The flower head is about the diameter of a large golf ball. The scent is a light sweet flowers type and not overpowering. 😍 I bought this online as a 2 year old full size plant. Bought it last year from rarehoya.

Thank you. It’s a bit sun stressed. It’s usually darker.
