# My hoya sweetheart gave me a sweet surprise! I wasn't expecting it to…

My hoya sweetheart gave me a sweet surprise! I wasn't expecting it to have another petal but I'm so grateful one appeared! 💕

Would anyone happen to know why the original plant got the 2 little white eyes on it?

Sunburn?

Is that what it is?

That is my guess but the pattern doesn’t really match. It’s strange how it’s just the two dots

Thank you so much :)

could be damage from overwatering. it looks fine now though so i wouldn't worry about it

Ya I'm thinking that too or sun damage.. I think it may also be misting. I haven't been doing that. Thank you so much!
