Beautiful! I have three Hoyas, only acquired in the last couple of years, one of them threw out one little head of flowers a couple of weeks ago. I'm hoping as they mature they flower more.

Probably you know this already, but once yours is done flowering, don't cut the peduncle as it'll use it to flower again multiple times ๐
No, I didn't know that, so thanks! I didn't know it was called a peduncle either so double thanks!
Also, not sure what kind of hoya you have, but at least this one wants a bit more watering when flowering. Like, if your moreless water yours every 5 days, do it every 4 so it grows the flower better
Cool, thanks. The one that flowered is a green one, that's all I know ๐
Can you post a picture?
So beautiful!
My bella has been on a flowering spell for months, I'll make pictures tomorrow!
Here's the promised picture, view from underneath:
Trying to post a picture but failing miserably.
