Day 265: Hoya bella accepts anything I throw at it and never fails to reward me. It's been less than a month since I looked up and saw withered leaves ready to drop. I'd been very busy and hadn't given a thought to watering plants. I took it down, basket and all, hung it in the shower and gave it a thorough bath..."Foliar feeding," I said to myself. "One of these days, I'm going to kill it clear dead." Well, that time has not yet arrived. Here it is, in lavish bloom, its leaves plumped back up, happy as Larry. There must be at least a dozen umbels open and more to come. Amazing what a little plain H2O can do!
