Additions to Hoya
Good to see this article expanding! I see that you haven't made many Wikipedia edits; do you know how to do "inline referencing" (i.e. using ) in the text you in add? See as an example the article Hoya australis. I'm happy to help in any way I can; don't worry about the exact format of the references, I can sort these out. But ideally at least every paragraph needs at the end of it an inline reference to say where the material came from. (If you want to reply to me, please do so below here.)

 * No rush. I've now formatted the items which were under "References" using the Citation template. There are some HTML comments in the source text. Peter coxhead (talk) 17:37, 30 November 2011 (UTC)
