66038 HATIORA (RHIPSALIS) SALICORNIOIDES CAC HP TGH PRICE: $ 3.00 "Drunkard's Dream" or "Dancing Bones" Epiphytic Rhipsalis cousin with stiftly arching thickly-branched sprays of bottle-shaped branchlets tipped with yellow flowers fading to salmon; soon makes a wonderful windowsill potplant (or with time, a stunning hanging basket subject) with very regularly dividing bone shaped stem section forming a very symetrical outline. Distinct from and quite unlike its Rhipsalis kin in that the "Drunkard's Dream" has stem segments which are determinate, meaning in botanical terms that each little bottle shaped segment has a predetermined size and shape when it starts to be formed. Usually shipped as URCuttings in dry moss.

65378 HAWORTHIA PYGMAEA [HORT] LIL HP TGH PRICE: $ 8.00 Small rosettes with rough crystaline windowed leavaes. We have been informed that this is sometimes offered as retusa acuminata in Europe--nomenclature uncertain. This is the most petite of any in our collection; typically sent as divisions in dry moss so it will travel safely to you. If you want a large plant, please do not order this as it will never be more than microcopic.

65413 HAWORTHIA UBOMBOENSIS LIL PRICE: $ 6.50 New for Fall 2010. "False Tillandsia" Has the stoloniferous character and stiff open rosette of H. limifolia (under which it has been classified); however the pale green smooth leaves lack any ridging. Handsome unique species turning liliac in bright light. Stoloniferous habit makes this popular in mossed topiary and in mossed succulent wreaths as offsets pop out randomly after burrowing below.

60647 HOYA CUMINGIANA ASC HP TGH PRICE: $ 4.75 Overlapping small glossy Carissa-like leaves; short internodes & branching give shrubby effect; odd yellow & maroon blossoms in crayola shades. Very interesting and unique shrubby species of easy culture--for extra vigor add some lime to the mix.

60972 HOYA CURTISII ASCL GH PRICE: $ 12.50 Teardrop miniature leaves with silver markings. Very prostrate habit and thus perfect if grown on a moss plaque. We have seen this grown also as a very full hanging basket subject when it requires perfect drainage; far happier on moss as forms only surface roots. Flowers are small, but the tearleaf form with mottled silver breaking through on the succulent leaf is stunning--any lizare would be proud to have this patina on its scales..

60662 HOYA FRATERNA [MELIFLUA SUBSPECIES] ASC HP TGH PRICE: $ 20.00 Thick moulded wax leaves of jade green with recurved edges. Very large stature. Fuzzy sienna-orange petals with dusky orange corolla. Said to come from Australia. (H. fraterna now synonym for coriaceas)

60873 HOYA GONOLOBIOIDES [HORT] ASC HP TGH PRICE: $ 10.00 Heavy waxy unveined foliage; straw-ivory blossoms in attractive scented clusters. Easy strong growing species. Who knows what current nomenclature applies to this old reliable vine we originally received from Loyce.

60090 HOYA KERRII ASC HP TGH PRICE: $ 14.25 "Sweetheart Hoya" or "Wax Hearts" Very thick large rigid leaves resembling inverted hearts; greenish-ivory flowers with tan-rose tones (tends to drip nectar). Found from Thailand to Fiji.

56548 HOYA KERRII VARIEGATED SWEETHEARTASC HP TGH PRICE: $ 30.00A fabulous clone on which the thick succulent heart shaped leaves are margined a wide ivory-yellow. A strong growing clone from Thailand--not the difficult clone offered in the past.

60093 HOYA KEYSII [AUSTRALIS S. AUSTRALIS] ASC HP CGH PRICE: $ 8.75 "Queensland Wax Vine" Thick gray-green leaves richly felted; waxy white flowers with palest rose corona. Handsome.

60094 HOYA LACUNOSA ASC HP TGH PRICE: $ 8.75 Tassel-like pendant umbels of fuzzy lemon-greenish white flowers with lemon centers and soft fragrance (a very clean aroma) perfectly match the dwarf-statured quilted leaves; the name derives form the lacunose leaf surface. That is, the surface of the leaf is cupped or depressed between the veins. Malaysian native beautifully displayed in small baskets to present the dangling scented flower clusters easily or trained on a moss topiary. Certainly the least challenging small statured cascading species to easily bloom as a houseplant.

58389 HOYA LACUNOSA SNOW PEAKS ASC HP TGH PRICE: $ 10.00 This is the variegated form of the great Hoya listed above. New for the 2010 season coming up. Just offered for the first time in Fall 2010. Tassel-like pendant umbels of fuzzy lemon-greenish white flowers with lemon centers and soft fragrance (a very clean aroma) perfectly match the dwarf-statured quilted leaves; the name derives form the lacunose leaf surface. That is, the surface of the leaf is cupped or depressed between the veins. Malaysian native beautifully displayed in small baskets to present the dangling scented flower clusters easily or trained on a moss topiary. Certainly the least challenging small statured cascading species to easily bloom as a houseplant.

60097 HOYA LINEARIS ASC CGH HP TEMPORARILY OUT OF STOCK. DO NOT ORDER AT THIS TIME. Narrow terete pendant leaf pairs are hairy; pendant umbels of delicate white flowers. Unique habit--but difficult--grow in a very shallow pot of epiphytic mix and never allow any exposure to chill--if you place this near a misting system, it will thrive. Always sent as a mossed URCutting.

60760 HOYA MACGILLVRAYI ASC TGH PRICE: $ 25.00 Seedling selection with tailed giant leaves and black-burgundy blossoms with white reverse shaped like a bowl. Very sensitive to chill.

60753 HOYA MEREDITHII [VITELLINOIDES] ASC CGH HP PRICE: $ 20.00. "Cardboard Wax Plant" Large undulating thick plastic leaves, with cardboard texture with undulating edges, gray splashed lime green w/ emerald vein netting; open clusters of lime-yellow flowers with ivory coronas. Originally distributed as 'Borneo 80-05'

60770 HOYA MERRILLII ASC CGH HP PRICE: $ 18.00. Thick wide cordovan brown glossy leaves, thick jade like with and showy paleer veins dramaticlly raised, all tightly held on pale rope like vining stems; open clusters of numerous fragrant rather distinctive white waxy blossoms with quite visibly curled petals lemony at center. Can be slow to establish; but a Mindoro species with very tropical (and possibly calcareous) needs.

58717 HOYA MITRATA ASC CGH HP PRICE: $ 15.00. An easily grown related to Hoya darwinii, but easier to cultivate. Flower bloom upright. Spotted thick leaves are very distinctive.

60104 HOYA [CENTROSTEMMA] MULTIFLORA ASC HP TGH PRICE: $ 10.00 leaves pubescent green on upright arching stems tipped with explosions of straw-ivory blossoms tipped tan, with non-curving corollas. In the general horticultural trade this shrubby vine is known as Hoya "Shooting Stars"--be careful avoid chill or it will immediately defoliate (and unfortunately be shooting leaves as well), even though it quickly recovers and produces new foliage. We usually send this already established in pots as this handsome species is semi-terrestial; but if walk in customers have found them all already at the time of your order, we will send generous URCuts.

60953 HOYA PINK SILVER [HORT.] ASC TGH HP PRICE: $ 5.50 Heavy waxy leaves strewn with silvery pink brushings on vigorous compact vine; clusters of fragrant blossoms not quite as easily produced as those of the H. carnosa tribe. Tolerant of less than ideal conditions; perfect lush decorative focal point on any windowsill; perhaps still the most satisyfing and visually stunning hanging basket subject of any of the "Wax Vines."

60098 HOYA SHEPHERDI [LONGIFOLIA SHEPHERDI] ASC HP PRICE: $ 7.50 "Stringbean Hoya" Dark scooped beanpod leaves in pairs; interesting clusters of quite waxy ivory blossoms with rose-red crown. Sikkim native a natural cascading from a hanging basket. According to Kloppenburg's photos, our clone is most correct as longifolia.

60773 HOYA TSANGI [SP. DS-70; ANGUSTIFOLIA] ASC TGH HP PRICE: $ 7.00 Lovely rich green pelted leaves with darkly blushed margins; flat-planed umbels of small ball-shaped rich red fls appear almost year round if kept warm with adaquate humidity--the modest size, beautifully pelted foliage and easily trained stems continue to make this one of the most popular "Wax Plants" for a small area--especially for small mossed topiaries and terrariums, even for litegardeners. The modest umbels emit a slight honey fragrance. Philippines species best grown in an epiphytic mix.

60164 HUERNIA SCHNEIDERIANA ASC TGH HP PRICE: $ 3.50 Chocolate violet flowers with cinnamon mahogany tones outside the bells produced in clusters as the base of the glossy upright (then tumbling) succulent short columnar stems ribbed with rows of soft "teeth." Easily grown cousin of the Stapelias, flourishing under the same growing conditions--and importantly, the most easily bloomed of any of the many species we have trialed over the years. An important plant to have for those kids among you with at least one prudish great-aunt who can be gently encouraged to read the plant tag aloud.

60787 JATROPHA BERLANDIERI EUP HP TGH $ 22.00 Curious Jatropha from Mexico which is grown above ground in cultivation, although its tuber is underground in nature. We find that this plant adapts well in bright windows in the home and greenhouse. These are 3 inch plus tubers with great character. These are nice sized older plants this year.

67399 JATROPHA HASTATA [INTEGERRIMA] COMPACTA EUP HP TGH PRICE: $ 10.00 Fiddle-shaped (typically three lobed) richly toned foliage on upright stout stemmed shrublet with a constant show of deep rose red blossoms in erect clusters as long as good sunlight is available--the uncooked seeds are considered toxic to some. This spicy Cuban "Peregina" performs well as a container plant; recently discovered by the "Tropicals in the Northern Garden" designers so this extremely attractive and undemanding treasure is now popping up in windowboxes, urns, and patio containers. Sometimes offered in Europe as J. pandurifolia, or so we are told.

67407 JATROPHA PODAGRICA EUP HP TGH PRICE: $ 7.50 "Gout Plant" or "Bottle Plant" names suggest its popular appeal; but the fun name is "Tartoto" in Guatamala. Stout swollen stubby trunk (a Baobab mimic) topped with oval, peltate, lobed leaves held out like radar dishes; clusters of coral flowers. Easy, but remember that this "Guatemalan Rhubarb" needs a bit of a mid-winter rest to more easily initiate the next season's flower buds.
