my 1st stoneii!

[goldenrose]

Leo! how do you know this? without extra attention For all we know, Rose gave this plant all of her available attention and her hubby got none! It's an absolute zinger! Congratulation Rose for a job well done.

Because he was there watering it every day! :evil:

:clap: :rollhappy:
Thanks guys! Do hubbies ever get enough attention? Actually he looks forward to them blooming - new inspiration for the next metal work!
Remember Leo has a pretty good memory, as I finally replaced my TDS meter when I picked up the hoyas from him back in May. I don't think it got any special treatment, I treat all the multis pretty much the same way. I was pretty right on with the fertilizer, I did add grit & ground oyster shells (no measuring just sprinkle it around the pot), although I think it was the warm summer that gave it the final push. The leafspan on the BS growth is 27".

:rollhappy:I was surprised too, never know what post might be resurrected here!! Thanks guys!
Plant is doing fine, that other growth, which I thought was matured has stalled somewhat but it was repotted this spring and has put up 2 small growths. It would be nice if it bloomed every year but being realistic that's not gonna happen with this plant!
