Flowering Vine, originally uploaded by bertine.

The philodendron* that lives in my shower (I have a full window in there) started flowering this weekend. I guess I didn't even realize that philodendron would flower since I have never seen one. It is very fragrant and is making me sneeze but I don't want to cut the flowers off because it is so cool that it is blooming.

*I am not actually sure it is a philodendron. I just have always sort of assumed it is.

Update I am pretty sure my plant is a Hoya (carnosa). Who knew?

I love the window. In the morning the sun comes in and makes the water all pretty with little rainbows and it is one of my favorite things ever!

Ok, so I think my plant is a hoya, which means it is about to bloom all over because it matured. Also, when the flowers fall off they will just rebloom. Now I have to decide if I like the smell or not.
