- In today's episode of Hoya of the Week, we have my Hoya erythrina that I decided I was not going to talk about.... but in the end, I think the devastating story of how I (almost) lost this Hoya can serve as a cautionary tale for the rest of you. You will see two stages of the same plant - one where she was thriving, after 2 or 3 years of growth and a very recent update where there is barely anything left.

Pausing this video to grab my pearls
I need to buy some for future use 😂
Thanks for sharing this, Miro. So sad ! I am glad you were able to enjoy her for the past few years. I am finding myself more and more appreciative of the hardiness of the carnosas. No fuss and they flourish...
Indeed! I am hopeful about recovering it though 😅
Oh goodness, so sorry to see this…I lost MANY of my hoya after treating them with horticultural oil. Similar situation-it was not hot, but I lost SO MANY plants, including some pricy ones. It was devastating. Hugs to you. I can personally say I will not be using any oils ever again to treat my hoyas.
“Clutching my pearls,” did not even come close to my reaction! I let out a very loud audible gasp at the sight of her. I was so shocked! I’m so sorry for this unfortunate turn of events. I would love to see this former beauty saved. As always I appreciate the work you do on your channel to educate and entertain us. Thank you! 👌🪴🥰
Oh that is devastating! Poor Miro😪 Thanks for sharing the good and the bad. I have to go restring my pearls now but I will be back for plant chores and terrarium envy. ❤
LMAO :D I said clutch, not tear them! :D
😱😱😱😱😱 I’m so sorry Miro! If anyone can bring her back to her former beauty, it’s you! Sending hugs from Texas!
I will pray that erythrina gets better. Thank you for sharing Miro ❤️
Thank you for the video! Such an unfortune event with the plant.
It happens. Hopefully she recovers :)
Thank you for sharing, Miro. I’m so sorry that this happened. Your videos are so helpful to me as a new Hoya person. Hoping that she can come back strong and flourish again.
I hope so too! It will nice if that happens and then we can have a positive update :)
So sorry. It was a beautiful plant. You are strong for continuing to deal with this plants temper tantrum.
haha :D Well, sometimes we gotta do it :) It was not one of my top favorites so it is okay. It was nice to have it, grow it and bloom it. I will try to recover it, but we shall see how that goes :)
I was running around, looking for pearls to clutch!
I gasped! Hoyas give me a nervous condition. I only have 2. Its all my heart can take. So now I'll return to the video and see how you resolved this problem.
I didn’t 😂 There is no stopping it. You let it run its course and salvage what you can once the plant calms down.
Wow, I treated with an oil treatment recently and few plant leaves turned yellow 😮
Plants sure like to be dramatic. It’s always the sweet stuff that takes the downward turn like that
On the bright side, she is definitely not among my top 20 :D
😮 How did that happen!
I’m so sorry for your Erythrina, Miro. But, ty so much for always making me smile and laugh. “Or maybe she’s just being a bitch” lol 😅🤣😘
I mean, that is the most plausible thing I feel.
I’ve wondered too if there can be a residual build up with certain plants. I have an Ardisia I sprayed once and swear the leaves are still coated despite how many times I’ve showered it. Or if they are treated day vs night- stomata open or closed?
😱😭📿I'm so sorry! Clutching my prayer beads.
haha :D
in growing hoya, how many times have we had our hearts broken and unbroken? On seeing your devastated Hoya erythrina, I feel my heart is broken irreversiblly .
Interesting how this video popped up just while I was starting at my hoya patella, trying to figure out how it is possible she has croaked on me all the sudden... things happen...🤷♀️
Oh, I am so sorry :( And that one is actually VERY pretty! My favorite
May I ask what you were treating it for? I quit using oil for any plants after a terrible response from a maranta. Love your channel. We can depend on you to keep making interesting plant videos.
It was a preventative treatment. Worked well I'd say! No plant, no pests. :D
@@BasiePlantsLOL it's genius 😂
Where are my smelling salts?!
Also. Could you have used a different brand of oil?
No, it is parafin oil meant to be used for plants. I find that oil treatments can go either way. I treat all 400 hoyas, and 5-6 reacted badly. Each time there is at least 1 plant that reacts badly even though before it was fine. Really odd...But i heard some other growers had a similar experience.
No, you haven’t aged! In fact, you’re looking more and more youthful. Like Benjamin Button. 😂 🤗
Ah I knew it! The curious case of Miro, the Hoya guy.
OMG that is so sad. She was so beautiful. I hope you can bring her back!
Not sure if you're still looking for help with the terrarium but this guy is about as good as it gets at building that stuff. www.youtube.com/@SerpaDesign
Hope it helps. Thank you for the amazing content. I'm quickly falling down the Hoya hole and learning so much from you.
🫤😵💫🥲
Exactly 😂
Omg mine was just about to meet the trash but now I think I’ll keep trying with her 🥲
Yours looks very nice! :D omg I have some IDs for your hoyas, I am still making a list, I will leave an actual useful comment haahha :D I wish my erythrina didn't look like trash now 😂
@@BasiePlants bless you and your Hoya knowledge 🫶
I’m so sorry for your Erythrina, Miro. But, ty so much for always making me smile and laugh. “Or maybe she’s just being a bitch” lol 😅🤣😘
