i could listen to you talk all day about hoyas, i loveeeee them. that hoya linearis is a dreammm, and don't get me started on that obovata!!! thanks for the video!
I appreciated that your video description said “mostly common” because that’s what I was looking for. I am not interested in watching long videos about rare Hoyas I can’t afford. Your video was just right for me!
You are so right about houseplants being absolutely fine with a week of neglect. The mini orchids (or any mounted orchids) generally need more care, so here's what I tell people. Water them, let them get to the point where they're just damp (maybe a couple hours after watering), and then put them in a closed container. Possible choices of container range from a glass jar/candy jar to a big clear tote. A ziplock bag does the trick, as well. Your choice doesn't even have to be completely clear, but I wouldn't choose something entirely opaque, either. I once accidentally left some mini phals in a regular plastic shopping bag for 6 weeks. When I found them, they looked perfect! Not shriveled or yellow or damaged in any way! Orchids are amazing. In a closed container, the plants can go weeks or even months without additional care. You can even choose to do this as a means of making mounted orchid growing way less work intensive. I hope that helps you and your subscribers! Great video and great message: don't freak out!
Don‘t give up early on the hoya leafs! It took my H. kerrii over a decade until it suddenly decided that beeing single is boring and started to grow into a full plant. First I was so excited and happy, until I noticed how fast the kerrii grows and never branches out, regardless how often you cut it back. So, now I have numerous little kerriis crawling around here and a mother that grows up on the wall, along over the door into a bookshelf, behind the books, up and down the floors and over the books again… and it is impossible to get it out there ever again without cutting it into pieces, as its stem is really thick and sturdy. But first I want to see a flower on her. When the Hoya hearts are planted, they have no roots and need to be stabilized for their time in the nursery and disposal. This is usually done by embedding the leafstalk in coco fiber that is tightly wrapped around it. Mostly it is so overtightened that it prevents any growth from developing. Supposingly it took the coco fiber about ten years to break down on my kerrii leaf until it managed to poke through its prison walls. If there is something similar wrapped around your kerrii leafstalks, you could consider removing that and help it sprout. Considering how fast the kerrii can grow, the single leafs are pretty overpriced, especially before valentines day… basically everything heart shaped is selling like hot cake… and gets overpriced. In case you can get your hands on auxin and cytokinin, this quote from wikipedia might be interesting: „When auxin and cytokinin are applied to callus, rooting can be generated with higher auxin to cytokinin ratios, shoot growth is induced by lower auxin to cytokinin ratios.“
I have only just started getting into Hoyas. I had a huge one years ago and I really don't remember what happened to it! I have recently purchased a Hoya Krimson Queen and Hoya Pubicalyx. I am thinking about getting a Hoya Krimson Princess next. They are so interesting and beautiful and I love the haphazard way in which they stretch out in all direction! I really enjoy your videos and I have learnt so much. Thank you!
It's always such a joy to see your plant collection and learn more from watching. Can you recommend a plant that requires less care on a busy schedule. I love your videos! I hope you make more of them 💚😍
Hoya Australis grows soooo fast! I got a tiny plant 6 months ago, it's only of my largest plants now! I get two new leafs almost weekly. It grows faster then any plant or Hoya I have! And it def needs more water then most hoyas. But I love it because the new growth comes in almost black! It's so dark, they are a blackish red color! I love my australis and my Lisa! Super fast grower!
I too did not “get” the whole Hoya craze. I bought my first Hoya (a curtisii) 3 years ago thinking it was a SOH!! LOL…anyway she was just barely hanging over the edge of her 6” nursery pot…today she is about 2’ long and has 2 podunkels (spelling?)…I am hoping to get blooms soon! I also have a krimson princess and queen, an Australis and a pubicalyx!! All of them are growing well…and growing on me!! Love your videos…you are entertaining (in a sophisticated and no nonsense way which I really appreciate) and informative!!
Love your videos! In the beginning I also underwatered my Hoya too because of all the care tips out there saying it will die from overwatering. I'm watering more now and my plants are growing like crazy!
Hi there :) I also had a singel leaf hoya for more than two years and it only grew roots. So i did some research and found out that to properly propagate a hoya, the leaf needs a part of the stem. Eventhough it can work without the stem part, it will "likely" only grow roots. I made some experiments and noticed that the one leaf propagation method works on some varieties better (like on the hoya carnosa) but on others not. That is also the reason why the sweethart hoya leaf stays a one leaf hoya. My recommendation is to generally only buy hoya cuttings with a note or at least some stem part. Best wishes and plant success!!!!
I have 65 Hoyas that I grow in a highly lit South facing window with 75% humidity. I have found that there are quite a few that do not like to dry out. Serpens and it’s daughter, Mathilde absolutely hate it. Retusa, I keep fairly moist also. All grow quite fast! Publicalyx does way better in higher light, turns 90% silver from the splash, eventually the silver turns pink!…”blister variegation” is what splash is.
I was just like you… I didn’t love the idea of hoyas in the beginning, but I’ve come to love some of them now! I have Mathilde (you should get this one, it’s so vigorous!!), polyneura, Carnosa, Krimson Queen, Obovata, Sunrise, Bella (you should get this one too!!!), and Krohniana.
Wow what a great collection!🤩✨✨ thanks so much for the suggestions 😍 the mathilde is like the mini obovata right?- i wouldn’t hesitate to get it if I saw it in person! thx for watching 😊💜💜
I love your collection! In my list to get once we are not so cold here, is the Hindu Rope, which if yours gets too long, chop it and stick it on the other side of the same pot. It will get fuller. 🌿And the other one is the Obovata. I don't want to buy any other variegated plant because one of my very favorites is pretty much dead even with all the care, and you are right, all the white leaves can't do good to a plant even if they look beautiful
Your rounded hoya kerrii reminds me of kerrii "Quilted Leaf"! I'm new to watching plant videos but definitely not new to caring for plants (60ish Hoyas, 100 plants) and i super enjoy your channel and chatty repots 😊
I have not been a huge Hoya fan, but seeing your little collection makes me want to try a few myself. The challenge for us in the NW is finding enough light. I'm thinking that as soon as I set up a couple of new grow lights, these will go on my wish list. Love that your obovata gave you flowers!
Hi Kris! glad you found some new plants you like😊 i feel blessed with my current light situation to be able to grow these hoyas and even get some flowers- excited for you about your future grow light set up for your plant babies🤩 thx for watching!💜💜💜
You have a lot of knowledge about hoyas. I started collecting them a year ago and now have around 50 of them . Mostly cuttings. What kind of soil do you use for them?
I love your descriptions of the hoyas and overall excitement for each plant. 🪴 I gave away my obovata because I really just didn't like the leaf shape....a lot of shapes and leaf structures are just off-putting for me, so weird. My favorite hoya is my old carnosa, it just grows and grows for me, getting into all sorts of mischief. Thank you for your observation about lack of watering leading to hoyas just not growing. I've got a few in that category, not helped by their epiphyte soil mix either. Just gave my Princess a good drink after doing the taco test.
you’re so nice thank you 😊💜 i totally get being off put by some plants, there are just some things that trigger a strong love/hate response 😆 sounds like i need to get myself a carnosa! I hope your hoyas eventually explode with growth too 🤩 thanks so much for watching!
I love Hoya more than they love me :( I’m no quitter thou …I’ve got a grow light and humidifier now …central ca is in a deep freeze so pretty sure these two additions are going to be the answer. I’ve got a queen who just pushed out a big health pink leaf woooooo I bravely added two Carnosas which sound pretty bullet proof. I’d love a silver variety I’d love a round leaf and a long thin leaf ….you know how it is if I see success with these I’ll let my Hoya gdn grow into an obsession lol. Thx for your tour it helps us “want to be gardeners” get your skill set
thanks so much for the recommendations!🙌 I especially like the brevialata, very interesting leaf form😍 i’m gonna keep my eye out for these now 😁 thx for watching!!💜💜💜✨
Hi, really love your videos. I just wish to seek your advice on the hoya obavata as yours is thriving and i heard it is a fast grower. Since i got it 2 months ago, there was not a single new growth. I watered it when there is abit of give from the taco test abt 10 days usually. Do you think is the water that is the issue? Looks healthy though.
WOW your linearis and retusa are insane! Mine will take years to get to your size but I'm willing to wait it out for such gorgeous plants 👍 thanks for sharing your collection
Super beautiful hoya collection. Appreciate the care tips as well. Lots of valuable information. The queen was my first hoya 3yrs ago but it's been such a SLOW grower for me that I kind of lost interest in Hoya in general but have since picked up a handful of others including the Obovata that seems to be a super fast gower...in the exact same south facing window as my queen. The Obovata has proven to be a much more rewarding plant to grow, glad I decided to try another variety. :) Great beginner Hoya plant. :)
i totally get losing interest after having a slow grower- glad you found a specimen that’s growing well for you!! I feel like the obovata is a nice little gift from nature ☺️💕 I’m so happy to hear you enjoyed the video, thanks so much for watching Debra!!💜💜💜
How long did it take for your hoyas to start blooming? Ive had mine for about 4 years now in south facing, regularly water and fertilize and still nothing!
Very nice collection. I looooove Hoyas. I am still waiting patiently to cross paths with Macrophylla and Obovata of any kind. Albo marginata or Pot of Gold / Regular or Splash......I’ll take it😀 The Hoyas genus have soooo many cultivars and hybrids that sometimes it might feel like buying a slightly different version of the same plant also being indoors a lot of plants does not have the cance to reach their potential , what they might look like if left in nature. Maybe the Obovata, in nature, change shape of its leaves or the kerrii is a cultivars of the Obovata and something else. Who knows? Try to bottom water your Australis, this way she might soak up more water.
Hi I love your content but have a question. I’m in zone8 and I see that I have baby spotted lantern bugs. How do I get rid of them before they become adults. I tried neem oil, lime powder so far. Thanks in advance
I got a variegated Hindu Rope last summer and it did well outside all summer, then 2/3 trails bit the dust in October. I think under-watering led to its downfall.
I really enjoy your TH-cam channel! You are so talented, informative, and fun to watch. I seriously love your style and those nails! Oh man... I love the color of your nails... ❤️ Totally fan girl...ing right meow.
I was totally sucked in by Hoyas immediately but my boyfriend never was the only one he really loves is the compacta he was so excited when we got our baby variegated compacta and even tho it hasn’t grown he always asks about it lol
For your kerrii, remove the soil and see if there is a node or if it is just the leaf. Sometimes people get lucky and they get a node on the leaf as well, which should grow into a new plant.
I literally just stumbled upon your channel! New follower now 😃 I have a macrophyla and the leaves are super soft even after watering. I water it maybe around 2 weeks when the soil is bone dry so not sure what is going on 😞
💜hooray thanks so much for watching and subscribing!!💜🥳✨ I’ve noticed that some of the older leaves on my macrophylla are floppy too, and they don’t perk up much even after I water it, unlike my other hoyas. i think it might just be a macrophylla thing, so hopefully newer leaves that grow on your plant will be more sturdy. got my fingers crossed for your plant!🤞☺️
I need help with my Linearis.......I don't think it likes me. I have it in a south west facing window, I moved it from a southeastern exposure where it got morning sun , (filtered). It didn;t seem to like it there! I have held back on the watering and now it just looks sad. Some of the needles are full and some aren't. I am trying to be patient with it and see what happens. What kind of fertilizer do you feed yours? Someone said Fish Emulsion? Thank you for your help!
I really enjoyed your video, thank you! 🙌💚🪴😊 and I actually felt the same way about Hoyas at first, not impressed, but now I’m admittedly a Hoya head!! 😊💚🪴🙌
2 is a lil fam!👭 it’s funny because I was never trying to collect them, it just happened 😅😅😅 but I did only have the one Krimson Queen for the longest time. thx for watching!💜
thanks!! my suggestion is: more and more and more light if at all possible!!😊☀️ mine gets the brightest hottest sun in my apartment- with hours of direct sun in the summer. also I’ve only had mine for under a year and it was fairly large to begin with so it’s possible that yours is still getting established. hope it starts growing faster for you! thx for watching!💜✨
Interested in hearing about your horticulture certificate! I'm interested in getting one just because I love learning about horticulture. What are the benefits of having a certificate, in your eyes (I need inspiration!)
i have so much to say about this thanks for asking 🥴 I’ve been hoping to transition my career into the world of horticulture and I think getting a certification helps open some doors to new career options that my plant interest alone doesn’t qualify me for. I studied philosophy in college, but find myself wishing i had gone with biology or environmental science because i would be more eligible for jobs i’m interested in now (who could have guessed 😅😂) so in that regard I know that this is a really good idea for me! But i also do think that having been a diligent plant youtube watcher for many years already equipped me with a lot of the info I’ve been learning. and find myself gritting my teeth through some busy work...basically it’s been a while since i was in school and I forgot that it can be a lot of assignments that don’t necessarily pertain to my interests...and i’m paying to do it. So in that sense I think if you’re trying to enrich and deepen your understanding of horticulture as a hobbyist and you are self motivated to consume plant content, it’s more fun to learn at your own pace without needing to ,like, do awkward group assignments with other adult learners lol But at the same time it’s nice to have some structure in a learning situation too. And it really depends on your goals. I could go on and on about this topic- I might talk about this in repotting video or something because I have a lot of opinions.....but I think the gist is that I don’t believe it should be necessary to pay for this level of plant knowledge for the education alone because there are a lot of formally educated people and solid learning resources who make all of this info (and more) available for free
@@reallybigplant thank you so much for taking the time to type out the long explanation! I feel so flattered haha! I'd love to hear more about it in a repotting video!
Single leaf cutting of Hoya would grow roots but never will shoot up stem or leaves, they never actually grow. But if by any chance, you got a leaf cutting that still have some stem portion attached, then it will grow. If the leaf cutting is devoid of any stem portion of the leafnode attached, it would never grow how many years we keep it.
@@reallybigplant you’re welcome i love watching you 😊 very organic or genuine. I have a full plant of the kerrii and it’s waiting for its new bigger pot 😊
i could listen to you talk all day about hoyas, i loveeeee them. that hoya linearis is a dreammm, and don't get me started on that obovata!!! thanks for the video!
🥰i’m just a little obsessed with the linearis hehe😅 thanks so much for watching and for your support!!!!💜✨💜✨💜
I appreciated that your video description said “mostly common” because that’s what I was looking for. I am not interested in watching long videos about rare Hoyas I can’t afford. Your video was just right for me!
Yassss Kerrii was originally a mutation of Obovata! That’s so cool that you have a whole vine doing that! :)
Hello friend. I have to give you your props👏🏽because you know your plants! Thank you for sharing..gotta go finish the video💚💚
If you live in southeast Asia, the diversity of Hoyas is just mind blowing
Love your hair! The watering thing about being dry and not growing is FOR REAL!
You are so right about houseplants being absolutely fine with a week of neglect. The mini orchids (or any mounted orchids) generally need more care, so here's what I tell people. Water them, let them get to the point where they're just damp (maybe a couple hours after watering), and then put them in a closed container. Possible choices of container range from a glass jar/candy jar to a big clear tote. A ziplock bag does the trick, as well. Your choice doesn't even have to be completely clear, but I wouldn't choose something entirely opaque, either. I once accidentally left some mini phals in a regular plastic shopping bag for 6 weeks. When I found them, they looked perfect! Not shriveled or yellow or damaged in any way! Orchids are amazing. In a closed container, the plants can go weeks or even months without additional care. You can even choose to do this as a means of making mounted orchid growing way less work intensive. I hope that helps you and your subscribers! Great video and great message: don't freak out!
Loved this. Thanks for explaining the Latin names! Love hearing your explanation on everything, I feel so educated 🤣
ooh yay i’m super glad to hear it!! thanks so much for watching 😄💜✨✨
Beautiful healthy Hoyas.
Don‘t give up early on the hoya leafs! It took my H. kerrii over a decade until it suddenly decided that beeing single is boring and started to grow into a full plant. First I was so excited and happy, until I noticed how fast the kerrii grows and never branches out, regardless how often you cut it back. So, now I have numerous little kerriis crawling around here and a mother that grows up on the wall, along over the door into a bookshelf, behind the books, up and down the floors and over the books again… and it is impossible to get it out there ever again without cutting it into pieces, as its stem is really thick and sturdy. But first I want to see a flower on her.
When the Hoya hearts are planted, they have no roots and need to be stabilized for their time in the nursery and disposal. This is usually done by embedding the leafstalk in coco fiber that is tightly wrapped around it. Mostly it is so overtightened that it prevents any growth from developing. Supposingly it took the coco fiber about ten years to break down on my kerrii leaf until it managed to poke through its prison walls. If there is something similar wrapped around your kerrii leafstalks, you could consider removing that and help it sprout.
Considering how fast the kerrii can grow, the single leafs are pretty overpriced, especially before valentines day… basically everything heart shaped is selling like hot cake… and gets overpriced.
In case you can get your hands on auxin and cytokinin, this quote from wikipedia might be interesting:
„When auxin and cytokinin are applied to callus, rooting can be generated with higher auxin to cytokinin ratios, shoot growth is induced by lower auxin to cytokinin ratios.“

Hi there :)
I also had a singel leaf hoya for more than two years and it only grew roots. So i did some research and found out that to properly propagate a hoya, the leaf needs a part of the stem. Eventhough it can work without the stem part, it will "likely" only grow roots. I made some experiments and noticed that the one leaf propagation method works on some varieties better (like on the hoya carnosa) but on others not. That is also the reason why the sweethart hoya leaf stays a one leaf hoya.
My recommendation is to generally only buy hoya cuttings with a note or at least some stem part.
Best wishes and plant success!!!!
I looove that compacta! I'm not a big fan of hoyas, but I really want one of them 😍
I have 65 Hoyas that I grow in a highly lit South facing window with 75% humidity. I have found that there are quite a few that do not like to dry out.

Try perlite for your single leaf!! I had and exotica in water FOREVER and then I put in in perlite and BOOM 💥 in about 2 weeks I had amazing roots!!!
wow lucky to get so big, must be easy there, how often do u water, do u wait for wrinkle leaves?
How long did it take for your hoyas to start blooming? Ive had mine for about 4 years now in south facing, regularly water and fertilize and still nothing!
Hi, i like the gold pot so much and the turkish one with monstera! And all hoya beautiful of cours . Greatings from Poland! :)
Very nice collection. I looooove Hoyas. I am still waiting patiently to cross paths with Macrophylla and Obovata of any kind. Albo marginata or Pot of Gold / Regular or Splash......I’ll take it😀
The Hoyas genus have soooo many cultivars and hybrids that sometimes it might feel like buying a slightly different version of the same plant also being indoors a lot of plants does not have the cance to reach their potential , what they might look like if left in nature.

I got a variegated Hindu Rope last summer and it did well outside all summer, then 2/3 trails bit the dust in October. I think under-watering led to its downfall.

Your hoyas are so lush! Thanks for sharing! New sub!
thank you!!🥰 and thanks so much for watching and subscribing!! 😊💜✨✨✨
For your kerrii, remove the soil and see if there is a node or if it is just the leaf. Sometimes people get lucky and they get a node on the leaf as well, which should grow into a new plant.
I wish I could get some starts of your Hoyas omg I love them
Nice collection! Need to add a curtisii 😍 its one of my favorites.
ooh good one! i’d love a cute lil curtisii 😍😍 thanks so much for watching and for the suggestion!💜
I literally just stumbled upon your channel! New follower now 😃 I have a macrophyla and the leaves are super soft even after watering. I water it maybe around 2 weeks when the soil is bone dry so not sure what is going on 😞
💜hooray thanks so much for watching and subscribing!!💜🥳✨ I’ve noticed that some of the older leaves on my macrophylla are floppy too, and they don’t perk up much even after I water it, unlike my other hoyas. i think it might just be a macrophylla thing, so hopefully newer leaves that grow on your plant will be more sturdy. got my fingers crossed for your plant!🤞☺️
Hi! Will you please talk a bit more about the lemon juice for water marks on another video?
Thx
Lol love your limp form lol
So Beautiful 😍
Awesome video. New fan and subscriber!
Beautiful 😍
I need help with my Linearis.......I don't think it likes me. I have it in a south west facing window, I moved it from a southeastern exposure where it got morning sun , (filtered). It didn;t seem to like it there! I have held back on the watering and now it just looks sad. Some of the needles are full and some aren't. I am trying to be patient with it and see what happens. What kind of fertilizer do you feed yours? Someone said Fish Emulsion? Thank you for your help!
I really enjoyed your video, thank you! 🙌💚🪴😊 and I actually felt the same way about Hoyas at first, not impressed, but now I’m admittedly a Hoya head!! 😊💚🪴🙌
Lol i started this vid thinking she had a cholla collection and was amazed that these relatives were not so spikey 😂
Wow you have a lot of Hoyas. I only have 2
2 is a lil fam!👭 it’s funny because I was never trying to collect them, it just happened 😅😅😅 but I did only have the one Krimson Queen for the longest time. thx for watching!💜
I found a Retusa in a plant store in Tucson last year for like $8!! I love it but it seems as if it’s the red headed step child of Hoyas 🤷♀️💚❤️
Such a bummer, someone sold you a leaf of Latafolia with no petiole. ☹️ Really nice collection 😀💚
I knowwww now I need to find a real one with some actual nodes haha 😩 thanks so much for watching Sherry! 🥰💜
So beautiful 🌱
thanks for watching!🥰💜✨
If rubbing the leafs make the splashes fade away , then how do you clean their leafs ?
I bought my first hoya from Planterina also!
Love your retusa, mine is growing so slow. Any suggestions?
thanks!! my suggestion is: more and more and more light if at all possible!!😊☀️ mine gets the brightest hottest sun in my apartment- with hours of direct sun in the summer. also I’ve only had mine for under a year and it was fairly large to begin with so it’s possible that yours is still getting established. hope it starts growing faster for you! thx for watching!💜✨
@@reallybigplant thanks so much
I have Hoyas however there's one that I'm not certain of its origin 💚
Nonetheless, I really love them. OneLove ❣
cute
My favorite Hoya is carrii because is bloomed a lot on me
Hoya Chelsea??? I love it
Interested in hearing about your horticulture certificate! I'm interested in getting one just because I love learning about horticulture. What are the benefits of having a certificate, in your eyes (I need inspiration!)
i have so much to say about this thanks for asking 🥴 I’ve been hoping to transition my career into the world of horticulture and I think getting a certification helps open some doors to new career options that my plant interest alone doesn’t qualify me for. I studied philosophy in college, but find myself wishing i had gone with biology or environmental science because i would be more eligible for jobs i’m interested in now (who could have guessed 😅😂) so in that regard I know that this is a really good idea for me! But i also do think that having been a diligent plant youtube watcher for many years already equipped me with a lot of the info I’ve been learning. and find myself gritting my teeth through some busy work...basically it’s been a while since i was in school and I forgot that it can be a lot of assignments that don’t necessarily pertain to my interests...and i’m paying to do it. So in that sense I think if you’re trying to enrich and deepen your understanding of horticulture as a hobbyist and you are self motivated to consume plant content, it’s more fun to learn at your own pace without needing to ,like, do awkward group assignments with other adult learners lol
But at the same time it’s nice to have some structure in a learning situation too. And it really depends on your goals. I could go on and on about this topic- I might talk about this in repotting video or something because I have a lot of opinions.....but I think the gist is that I don’t believe it should be necessary to pay for this level of plant knowledge for the education alone because there are a lot of formally educated people and solid learning resources who make all of this info (and more) available for free
i’m like the phone typing version of out of breath lol sorry for answering with a whole book😆 hope this helps 😊✨💜
@@reallybigplant thank you so much for taking the time to type out the long explanation! I feel so flattered haha! I'd love to hear more about it in a repotting video!
I would love to hear more too, and am also grateful for the longer reply!! 💚🌱💚
how do u touch them without knocking baby leaves off, i do it so often hah
Good way to remember queen vs princess - the queen wears her variegation as a crown and the princess wears hers as a gown.
I desperately want a Hoya Spartioides (the oops all peduncles Hoya) but I’m not about the prices. I may have to track down a Retusa.
Single leaf cutting of Hoya would grow roots but never will shoot up stem or leaves, they never actually grow. But if by any chance, you got a leaf cutting that still have some stem portion attached, then it will grow. If the leaf cutting is devoid of any stem portion of the leafnode attached, it would never grow how many years we keep it.
Suas plantas e lindas,tenho algumas iguais.
I have one hoya which is the kerrii and I am thinking about getting more 😁
love it! i hope to have a full plant of the kerrii some day 😊💜 thx for watching!✨
@@reallybigplant you’re welcome i love watching you 😊 very organic or genuine. I have a full plant of the kerrii and it’s waiting for its new bigger pot 😊
Are hoyas hard to grow
You should space them apart... they're all cluttered together .....maybe that helps them grow faster 🤔🤔🤔
i think the hoya compacta is actually not considered a carnosa anymore. just a hoya compacta :)
The reason your latifolia isn't growing is because there is no node to do so, same goes for your kerii
Ive had a few hoyas for a few years and they have never bloom for me,what is the secret
My obovata gets purple splash when exposed to enough light 🥺
whaaaa !!😳 that’s amazing!!🤩🤩 i think i’m gonna take a propagation and put it in the direct sun, thx for sharing!!🙌💜💜
I think you should put it in soil.
Bottom water the Hoya in the too small pot.
Can I get a HOOOOOYYYYAAAAAAAA
Pot the leave up
I am Kerala please give cutting hoya and spanish. Moss please give replay
I always watch your video I love hoya
My Hoyas not doing too good.
I couldn't see the difference in the plants 😢
