Today in the mail came a package from Barb to me!!!! I love surprises !!! Inside the package were 5 small plants.--(all wrapped & good & moist for the trip) Barb, (Dodge) sent me 3 Hoya cuttings and 2 Bromelaids !!! I quick found 2 matching pots & potted them right up.!!  Aren't I so lucky!!!  ![[Linked Image]](http://i241.photobucket.com/albums/ff68/JunieGirl_2007/Garden%20helper%20gifts/newplants4-21-10005.jpg) My only questions are.....do I put the 2 bromeliads into seperate pots, and are these pots small enough to start???????

Wow they got there already. You did the correct thing Carol. Now just mist them an put a plastic bag over the heads . Keep the soil moist. Hoya roots easily. Keep it out of the sun .. Both like low lights. I never did a bromelaid from pups so I am anxious to see the results. i had the Hoyas in my little green house an it loved it . Glad I suprised you . Good luck in the growing.

Yes Hoyas are very nice. But when I was young I totally misunderstood what their name was. You can imagine what I called them!  Yes, and I even said it standing in the middle of my sister's flower shop among all her colleagues! 
![[Linked Image]](//www.agardenersforum.com/images/graphics/buttons/merme.gif) We were given two hands to hold, two eyes to see, two ears to listen & two legs to walk. But why were we given only one heart? The other heart was given to another for us to find.
