    I have a Hoya rooting which was given to me about a year ago from a friend who had a rooting from someone, therefore, we don't know which one it is. From the description my friend gave (she's seen the original plant) it's a carnosa.

    At first my developed a few new pair of leaves fairly quickly then did nothing. I moved the plant with no success of growth. A few weeks ago I moved it to an area with total filtered sunlightg and it's almost doubled in size.

    A few days ago I noticed tiny yellow blobs completely surrounding the newest development pair of leaves so quickly washed these off. A while ago I noticed this newly devleoping pair of leaves is again covered in yellow blobs so have sprayed with my washing up liquid / bicarb solution.

    When you get the blobs on your fingers it's like pollen ... I am taking off potential flowers? I have a lot of info on Hoyas but can find nothing relating to this.

    Any help is greatly appreciated.

    :confused:

    Dont think its flowers, they form on a small, usually downward facing, stem.
    Cant think what it can be though. :confused:
