A few clinging Hoyas
These are a few hoyas that look quite attractive in a hanging basket cascading out. But as you can see that they will also happily cling and climb given a substrate to attatch themselves to to. In this case the the side of our weatherboard building which faces south. We've found this location ideal to grow a lot of Hoyas because it gets bright light but very little direct sun. From the top, Hoya lacunosa. Hoya obscura. Hoya hueschkeliana. Hoya halophila. and Hoya curtisii.

Roy,
I had the examples of it too. One hoya (can't remember which one it was) was climbing room wall. One would think there is not much to stick to but would be so wrong in case of hoya. The other, curtisii, had a wine growing on window sill, just lying on it, and when I wanted to move it, I had literally break some aerial roots glued to it. I wish I could experiment with those growing habits outside but not a chance here in Canada...

I am a potential Hoya novice. Also a Gemini/Monkey. I am going to try interplanting several Hoyas (Australis/Lacunosa/Bella and Serpens in one planter box (23cm wide 23cm deep and 70 cm long). Box is elevated and under roof area outside -Sydney. May not work - but think it is worth a try. Can't find anyone on internet who has tried this - but note you had two varieties in one container
