Y'all have proven me wrong ... again. I wasn't sure that anyone would click on this video, but there is some love out there for the "modest" green Hoya. Love your comments ☺
Love the green leaf hoyas as the flowers stands more beautiful than a variegated ones. Your hoyas are so healthy! We Hoya lovers couldn't ask for more. Maybe just to have them flower all year long😂
@@nmchai9333 First, thanks for the nice compliment. And yes, if only they flowered all year long. And if the flowers lasted longer. The roots never rotted, or dry rotted. And if only the vines wouldn't twine around every last thing in their path. Yes, it's a very short list 🤣😂🤣
I recently discovered this channel and I really love it. I love that you use simple things like bark and perlite and inexpensive pots. I love Hoyas too and I have learned so much from you. I love the green plants.
I'm glad to see someone who prefers the original green forms! I'm generally not a fan of variegation on almost any plant - hoya, aroid or outdoor garden! I do have a few but vastly prefer nonvariegated!
Love your Hoya’s,yours are the best out of all the TH-camrs I follow. You inspired me to appreciate them even more. I’m with you on the fertilizing,I do mine year round and another thing I found is that they like more water than some ppl say,but it could be my environment,hot and dry south of Australia 🇦🇺 Love your content. 💚💚🪴🌿 Natalie
Agreed--conditions are *everything*. I watched a video with Paul Shirley, the Netherlands Hoya grower, and he kept telling the interviewer "you're not watering enough.... That's because you're not watering enough.... Give your plants more water..." 😁🤣😁
Such pretty green Hoyas! Love seeing healthy and happy Hoyas. Many thanks for dispelling the myth about Hoya not being heavy feeders. I don’t over feed my Hoya but they do get fed a little with every other watering and I haven’t had any issues with this method. Happy growing! 👌🪴🥰
I got into Hoyas this summer and bought a crassipetiolata in a 4 inch pot at a local plant shop for $5. Really love the foliage. The krohniana splash I bought on the same day had died to root rot after a week after😅. Thank you for hoya vine pointing up info.
Your australis is the biggest I've ever seen. Another year and it can be your Christmas tree🎄 . I'm always impressed how beautiful and healthy your hoyas are. My thomsonii is blooming and it fills one of my rooms with a floral scent. Great video. Hope you have an opportunity to enjoy a beautiful Iowa weekend.
I really like the Australis. I've recently purchased the Lisa, but the OG just may be the start of my wish list. 😊 Thank you for another great video. 🇨🇦
I just got the Verticillata (Black Margin) and a few others this morning from Gardino’s. They are having a BOGO on them. Even more beautiful than I imagined. No grow tent though. Crossing my fingers.
@@soberplantguy They are a bit more graceful and delicate looking than I thought they were. Each one has several vines. My first Verticillatas. I really do like them.
Like many people, I like the look of variegated plants. However, over the past few years, I've determined that for the most part, I'm not very good with them. So I have made a commitment to not buy any more variegated plants in favor of all green! I appreciate your list. Those are very nice specimens indeed.
Lovely video. I enjoy watching your videos and have bought those scissors and your favorite items. I happened to dtumble on your video on pest control. Thank you so much for your advice. Keep doing the great work. I also sent you an email. Thanks Asma
Wow Dave, that H. Australis is gorgeous! Mine is about a year and a half but doing little growing. It won't die! The India I purchased two years ago and it grows like crazy! My leaves are dark, very pretty! My recent problem were yellowing bottom leaves. I sprayed a little sulfur on it and up potted it. I just got a peduncle on my fungii so I'm happy about that. I think they are so pretty and underrated. Thanks for showcasing your lovely hoyas! 👌 Dee, NY
Ah, thanks! I do find that a lot of props, or very young plants, get those yellow lower leaves on an otherwise healthy plant. Taking the nutrition from the elders? (I resent that, if it's true 😆). I hope you're H fungii is up to the challenge of blooming! Great to hear from you ☺
You'll have to pry my variegated plants from my cold, dead hands, Dave! I do love my green ones, too. Especially My Parasitica Black Margin lol. But seriously, I love small, unusual leaves, like H. endauensis, H. rotundeflora, H. englerina, H. burtoniea, etc. I'd love a carmelea -- next on the wish list. I forgot to add my serpens, Krohnianas, Lacunosas, Mr. Tent, Chelsea, Mathilde, I could go on and on. I just love my littles. 💚💚💚
🤣😂🤣 That's fair. But everyone and their mother has done a variegated Hoya video. Honestly wasn't sure if anyone would click on this one. Your list is amazing. From that list, I'm most proud of my H Mathilde. From a wee little vine and a few leaves to a beautiful plant. She'll be showing up soon. Cheers from Iowa ☺
I love green leaves too, being easier care is a bonus as well. Recently got the Fungii & a reverted Australis Lisa at my local plant swap group meet, she was surprised I wanted it eventhough it was all green, lol, I love it & they're doing so well.
I love the Australia’s. I recently bought one the last time I was in by my daughter in Boston. The greenhouse there had so many Hoyas it was hard to only get one. Yours is amazing! Do you have a Kerrii?
I also love the greens and living in northern Minnesota on Lake Superio rappreciate them even more during our long winters. . Quick question. I've been wanting to get a moisture meter. Do you remember the maker of yours. Thank you.
I have no idea how people make it through our long winters without some indoor greenery! My meter doesn't have a name, but ... pro tip. Only get the single prong type. The double prong will just get stuck with chunks of whatever between them. Cheers from Iowa
Thank you for the wealth of information, which really helps by the way. Hoyas are such beautiful plants. I like all of them and now at a point that I need to be more selective to my personal choices. Crassapetiolia is a prolific bloomer outside in the summer heat. I bought the fertilizer you recommended. I have not heard anyone talk about the ID process what does EPC etc mean? I tried searching. Thanks for the information big time.
Wow, thank you. epc is from the Epiphytica Garden in Thailand. IML is for Iris Marie Liddle (and husband David). RHM IS for Ricardo H Moriera. That’s off the top of my head, anyway. Cheers.
@@soberplantguy Thats great to know! Thank you. Rick is actually in a neigborhood close by. I didnt realize he was that well known. LOL I did figure out NOID.
I never boarded the variegation train, to me they look stupid, sickly, and silly. I might consider symmetrical variegation but they are rare and unstable.
Had to kind of laugh at your first two since you could have been speaking for me. I got my Crassipetiolata from Steve's Leaves as a BOGO, too (I potted them together, which maybe wasn't the best idea for such an aggressive grower), and my plain green Carnosa is also from reverted Krimson Princess cuttings. I also would have picked my Fungii and Australis 'Tenuipes' among my favorite green ones. I don't have a grow tent or cabinet and probably grow all of my hoya with less light than you do. I'm sure that means slower growth and less flowers for me, but I'm okay with that. My 'Tenuipes' is in an east-facing window and the leaves are HUGE. It's really something. Many moons ago, I bought a plain green Carnosa to have at the office where I worked. When I resigned to take another job, I didn't have room for it at home and couldn't take it to my new job, so I gave it to one of my best friends. She had it for 29 years! It vined all over her living room. It just died a few years ago.
Oh, that's a shame. I think, often times, those really old plants get completely woody (read: wood) stems and have to be restarted. I'm going to back of the light for my H Australis, too. I'd love to see some bigger leaves. Go green!
I do! You can always contact me through my email, which is in the description of every video: soberplantguy@gmail.com. Happy to send photos. Cheers from Iowa ☺
@@soberplantguy oh wow.. do you happen to have a Linearis? I love how they hang like a waterfall effect or hair lol, but they're expensive now & I'm too cheap & broke lol
I got a Limonica. Do you know if it is a verticilata? Also, I have one just called Sabah which is also just green though the leaves are a little thinner and longer. What about a Skinneriana? It looks kinda like a carnosa to me. Grows like a weed. My green carnosa is over 20 years old. It blooms non stop all summer. I can't remember where I got it. Wish I could. Anyway, I do enjoy your videos. Very no nonsense.
Yep, you've got some gorgeous plants. Re: feeding, I noticed when I feed my carnosa krimson princess that the variegated parts get dark. I thought maybe it was the feed? Any thoughts? - Oh please tell me we don't have to start calling them verticillata? Didn't they just do that with Calathea or something? I refuse! Let's boycott the new designations, lol!! ...but seriously, let's boycott ;)
🤣🤣🤣 Paul Shirley says we have no obligation to go with the new names. Good enough for me. The lighter, whiter parts of mine get darker too. Lack of chlorophyll is going to result in that eventually. Higher light may help? Can’t verify that for certain. Cheers!
@@soberplantguy Yay! and thanks, love your channel. I've been watching plants vids since spring 2019 and I've learned things from you that I've never heard before. There was something in particular from this vid, but yikes, I can't remember what it was ;)

Loved the video. It would be good to have this type of videos with chapters and the name of the plants to have a reference.
That is a very good suggestion. Thanks much!

I wish I could get my Australis to grow like that
My guess is that time will be your friend ☺️
Love the “Greens”. I have Nervosa, Fungii and Obovata for starters. Although the Obovata is putting out some real splash.
Very nice! The obovata is one I’d pick up without hesitation. Cheers
Lovely video. I enjoy watching your videos and have bought those scissors and your favorite items. I happened to dtumble on your video on pest control. Thank you so much for your advice. Keep doing the great work. I also sent you an email. Thanks Asma
