- My hoya carnosa compact ‘hindu rope’ finally bloomed - signaling me to film it now and to share with you the full care and propagation. This is an intermediate hoya not meant for beginners, but its full of beauty in its intricately woven leaves and spherical flowers.

I lost my grandmother in January..she was basically the mother that my mom failed to be. Her favorite plant was the Hoya compacta and the month thr passed I went to see my favorite nursery and found one I didn't have to order.... I treat that plant like a queen...she makes me feel my grandmother is with me
🥺 wowww sorry to hear about your loss
Tod bless you
It's wonderful that you had a nurturing parent in the form of your grandmother I shared a room with my grandfather until I was about sixteen years old he was like a second father to me and I loved him very much he passed about four years ago so here's a salute to wonderful grandparents godbless you and I'm sorry for your loss
This is so beautiful 💚😭
I do the same with a jade plant that my grandmother gifted me years ago
I find my Carnosa Compacta to be my easiest Hoya, hands down, so hearing so many people having trouble with theirs always surprises me. If you have trouble with yours and you keep it inside like I do, maybe telling you specifically how I keep mine could be helpful: I have my big tentacle girl in a Southwest window in Germany, in about 40-60% humidity and around 20°C. I water it thoroughly only whenever the majority of the leaves get soft and when they wrinkle up when you bend the leaves a bit with your fingers. I fertilize all year around with Liquid Gold Leaf, and in winter I have it standing under an LED lamp with 4000 kelvin and around 2000 lumen. My substrate is little puffed vulcanic rocks, like Lechuza Pon :) Mine hasn't had any pests yet, but I do use beneficial insects as pest prevention, so that probably helps.
Hi thanks for your advice. Has it also flowered for you?
@@kwahanui yes, it flowers several times a year. This year it flowered 3 times, from several peduncles 💕
@@kimmy6304 Wow that's amazing. Well to me it is anyway. Gives me hope.💚
@@kwahanui I think with plants once you learn their needs, keeping them happy and having them bloom will be easy as cake. I hope your compacta will also bloom for you next year 💕
Same !
"I see a red ant *HELLL-OOO-HEH* " You're so cute I say it again. Love your personality. Just makes the education so much more fun going down!! 💚💚💚
I have had mine for about five years now and this is the first time it is blooming for me. There are five blooms on it. And yes, each individual flower looks like a little plushy little stuffed animal, all fuzzy and pink and cute.
❤️❤️ yes, their flowers are quite enchanting in person. Cameras cant capture their details exactly
Your continuous upload of videos makes the holidays less lonely when far from family. Thank you, truly! I can't believe a fern(?) can coexist in the same pot as a hoya compacta!!! Although it makes for a beautiful looking arrangement. 💚
My compacta is very mad at me right now, but i still love him and i shall keep trying!!
Just got my first hoya carnosa compacta. 💚💚💚 Such a beautiful plant. 😍Thanks for the video. 🙂 It is very informative for a first timer like me. 😉
Such a slow growerrrr but this video was so useful for my hindu rope and variegated hindu rope!
This is the first Hoya I bought. I have never really liked hoyas, but my boyfriend hated that none of my plants had flowers and when I showed them to him, he was so excited to finally have a plant that flowered... so I guess now I'm building myself a little hoya collection 😅
Nice!! 😀
Do you like succulents? To me, hoya are similar to succulents.
What an adorable little blue back🕷️
I just learned, that hoyas need cold ( or colder ) nights to be able to bloom. One person who had over 800 Hoyas at one point said.. that most of the hoyas are used to cold and drier nights and hot daytimes with a lot of humidity. Maybe you changed something, so it can bloom now :)
Yes thats likely to be true for many species of hoya. 🙂
That spider is such a beauty too!
Hi. I just today got 3 rooted cuttings in the mail. I potted them up into my go to barky airy mixture. It is an orchid mix. Has pumice, bark, charcoal, and a bit of potting mix. This is my 3rd attempt with this Hoya. I have many other varieties that do beautifully. I am almost certain after seeing your video that I under watered in the past. I only watered about once a month in the house.
Ooo they need a bit more watering than that, especially in bright light (which they also require)
You are my favorite plant TH-camr, love you infectious love for plants! Very easy to understand and informative! 💙 from Australia 🇦🇺
🥰🥰
Love your energy, you’ve gained a new subscriber here. ❤
Thank you ❤️❤️
Thanks so much for the information in this video! Very helpful and I loved seeing your beautiful hoyas!
Thank you ❤️
Flinched at the spider but I'm glad you're letting him live his best life 😊
You are great! Thanks for the great tips on propagating ! I am collecting hoyas, and I LOVE the carnosa compacta. Thanks again.
very beatiful hoya flowers.
I am so happy to find this video about this hoya, my green form that I had for about 9 months has some buds popping out, and I'm so excited to see the blooms. I wasn't expecting it as I heard it could take up to 3 years for flowers.
Yes these guys are quite slow with flowering 😀
The bloooooooms! I can’t wait till my big boy blooms he’s thriving at the moment although he has mealy bugs that are obsessed with him🤕 my regalis cutting is is struggling I can’t wait until I find a one definitely in my top 3 wish list plant list. Thank for the vid!
Good luck!! Have to stick them outside so the spiders can feast on the mealybugs
I propagated one in spaghnum moss and I had ver good results. On less than a month I got rooted.
Hmmm....🙄 I'm overwatering my compacta. "Treat it like a succulent" Thank you for your advice. Your flowering compacta tho .... I can only hope and dream about mine ever achieving that size and if it flowers well then that would be a huge bonus. 💜💜💜
Thank you for your everyday planty videos! 🪴
You’re welcome. See you in tonights video!
I love my Hoya compacts I’ve had it for a few months under a grow light, I only water it when it’s leaves are slightly wrinkly or less turgid since it’s in plastic, Would recommend this hoya for sure 👍🏻
My Hoya is the first Hoya I ever own it been easy for me to take care of.What can I say I have the green thumb.😂😂😂 I see the fox tail behind you is beautiful I have two of them. Happy Growing and stay safe.
I just bought one....thank you for such a great video
Nice I hope its happy in your care. They are so cool
Nice Hindu Rope plants and nice Encephalartos cycads in the back ground!
🥰🥰
Outstanding video and information. Thank you Sir!
Great video 😃👍🏽 hello from Southern California 👋🏽
Love the Hoya compactas💚.
I love your energy
Wow the Hindu rope hoya in the episode is big. I've got mine from Los Angles for about $13, a small one. I have kept it indoor, and it doesn't grow well. So, I moved it outdoor into patio, and see new shoot coming out. The growth rate is very slow, hope mine can grow to the same size.
They do take a really long time. Watch for pests, mindful not to overwater, and very very bright light without burning it
In my experience, leave them alone!! Treating them like succulents is very helpful. They are more forgiving than succulents! Treat them like orchids, they, like orchids, are epiphytes. They are slow to get rooted and a lot of people think they are slow growing plants but it’s not really true, they need smaller pots to take off and a bit of time to recover from transplant shock. South facing window, chunky soil only, they need to breath. I pot mine in bonsai jack succulent soil, bark chips, perlite, coco peat and a bit of worm castings and they love it! They will also grow in just bark they are not picky as long as the mixture is airy and chunky they will root
Thank you for the video. I have had a healthy, indoor rope Hoya for 6 years but recently noticed that some of the leaves were yellowing and wrinkling some. With it be the end of winter, I had a feeling it was root rotted. I've had good luck propagating my other Hoya species in water so I'm going to try with the rope hoya ...
Oh yes that might be sign of overwatering
hoya carnosa compacta was my first hoya 😅😅😅
the mealy bugs, oh the mealy bugs...it was completely INFESTED with them 😩 forced me to learn so much about pest management. I think after many months they are finally defeated but I still keep it isolated from my other plants
On the bright side, hoyas keep other plants safe because all the mealy bugs tend do congregate in hoyas as their preferred meal
@@onlyplants except when the plants you want to protect from mealys are also hoyas LOL
Very informative
❤️😀
You gave alot of good information
Thank you ❤️
Woww.. i went to Moonhoya yesterday and saw this compacta varigata.. i cant buy it cause its sooo expensive. Now I cant get it out from my brain. I want it soooo much
Awww yes they are very very slow growing 😵
Nice video but wow that flower at end was gorgous
thanks for sharing care compacta godbless
WOWW NICE HOYA SHAWN
Thank you 🥰
i bought one last month and i did something bad. i had to change a house for 2 weeks so in the new house i placed it in low light and i was watering it often.. ofc i got yellow and droping leafs. I came back to my old house last week and i placed it in a very bright spot. i hope it gets better. the biggest part of the plant looks good. i have many green leafs so i hope it wont die eventually. wish me good luck :P
P.S i really want to buy the variegated version but i cant find it in my country.. :(
See if you can propagate some if you have bare stem, for plant insurance. Because they recover well from root rot and my slowly die 🥺
@@onlyplants I'm afraid to propagate anything. I've never done it before 🤔😕
I've had a lot of good luck treating it like an orchid... with more sun. I keep it in orchid mix, water it once a week and let it dry out between waterings. It's doubled in length. No blooms yet, but it was in a 4inch pot, so still a baby.
Sweet thanks for the share 😀
Beautiful plant!
This is a very good informative video.
Awesome thank you 🙏
Love the video! I'm so very sad my hindu rope reverted😰
Try to cut back to the last variegated leaf. New vines should appear
Love it 😍
Thank you.
😀🙏🏽
😍🥰❤️👌🏽Beautiful!
How the heck do you have a fern planted with it, don’t they have totally different care requirements?
Love your humour, very entertaining! ❤
Haha they are both epiphytes actually… but the fern would take in more water than the hoya
@@onlyplants no way! That’s cool!
How beautiful is that?
Thanks for the detailed info, I am in uk. Never heard about hoya but got it as a gift around 4 months ago. It's nearly 3 feet tall. I haven't seen new growth in leaves or anf flowers. Its looks very health though. Do I need to fertilise it and which one. It has been canned up wards, dose it have to hang down. Plz advise.
Hoyas can climb so if its happy clamoring up I would leave it be. Give it balanced NPK fertilizer and dont overwater. These guys hate water
I am so dang kind to my Hoya compacta. It is about the size of yours but has NEVER bloomed. Haha! How did I know you would cut yours to pieces. PS I advise you to not sit on moss poles. Carry on! 😂🤣😂💚✌️🍃🌱🌿🌵
Notif squad lets go
9 months and it gave you babies blooms. It's so interesting! I would love one esp how long it can trail. Btw what is that gorgeous privacy hedge behind you?? Thx 😂 poke butt part haha
Ooo Im not sure about the species of the hedge haha it came with the house
The blooms smell like dark chocolate 😮🍫
Ooo thats very alluring 🫣🙈
I heard that. I can't wait for mine to bloom.
I hope this comment is answered.
My compacta variegated I bought rotted from the moment I got it. I cut it back, but no sap came from the stem where the roots were or the stem that had the leaves. I hope that doesn't mean the entire plant is dead? I don't have much more room to cut it back and it still have a leaf and stem to root. In your experience if you cut a hoya stem and no sap comes out is it a dead plant?
When no sap comes out it may mean it didnt have much sugar stored in the plant. It might still be possible to revive/propagate it but the chances are a bit slimmer
Good video. What type of fertilizer do you use for your hoyas? How often do we fertilize? Thanks.
Do check out my video titled fertilizer. I fertilize all my plants the same exact way 😀
Question: My compacta is getting too long. My concern is that if I cut the tip off a new shoot will begin where I cut the tip . I'm worried it will become weak or too heavy if that occurs. Have you found that situation to be the case with your plant?
Sometimes they can vine from a lower node. You can cut most of the mains tem
Off actually, turn it into many plants.
Do they start growing the new leaves from the tip of the leaf or the bottom by the roots? I can never tell where the new leaf is coming from
99% of the time its from the tips but they can branch out randomly from below. This is especially true if the tip is damaged, cut off, or attacked by pests
Hi brother, May I know put indoor need abit sunlight and water everyday? Or ones a week? Thank you..🙏❤️🙌
Depends on your potting medium, light level, and air flow. Let the entire medium dry out completely before you water it again. This could be everyday or every few weeks depending…
Hi! thanks for this very informative video. I just got a hoya compacta and was wondering if you could plant the cutting in the same pot as the mother plant (as with tradescantia and philodendrons) so it can have more of a "bushy" look. Thanks :)
Yes you can 😀
🍃🍃🍃
First comment!? 💛
I thought my hoya carnosa compacta is dying. It is wrinkled so i put it is an terrarium setting (close small greenhouse over a greenhouse to increase humidity) but it not getting better. Other hoyas that I rooted are now growing or showing signs of growth.
Ooo check the roots to see if its still healthy. Sometimes they have rot off or dried off
Usually if mine is wrinkled I water heavily and let it dry and that perks it back up.
Beautiful 😍. But why are you leaving that farn in there
To keep the hoya company 😀
@@onlyplants well its your choice but she's doesn't need it
Could I cut a long piece off and propagate it , one side is very long and I would like to add it to the other side , Thank you !!!!!
Unfortunately with long pieces chance of survival is low. This is because theres no roots to support so much stem and leaves. Best to do small sections with very little leaves
My hoya is getting yellow leaves n few leaves seems to be burnt too... I'm from India.. it's pretty hot here..45°c... Can u please suggest any solution.
That might be overwatering, potentially lack of light or too much light. Send pics on instagram so I can see better @bo.tan.ist
I have had a Hindu Rope for about 5 yrs. now.it is doing wonderful but am concerned about the fact that she has not flowered for me....Help...please❤️
Move it to move light, treat for pest as preventative, and do fertilize lightly with higher Phosphorus but lightly ya!
One of my wishlist plant, but im too scared buying this beauty😭😭
Awww dont be scared haha just give it a try. A lot of people do eventually figure this plant out and successfully grow them.
Hey i hope you can answer my question.. The hoya that died while propagating, do you leave it or throw it out?
I take it out I guess :) if im sure its dead
Cool deal thank you! I thought mabe there was hope..
I had to repot my hoyas because i think the pot was too big, the leave were wrinkling and getting yellow.. 🙄 these are difficult plants
At first you say you Cant overwater it , but the ya say its prone to be overwatered? Lol
How do you get a compacta to trail? Is time the only way?
Basically it hates water hehe. It takes many years for it to trail. Its so slow growing 🥹
What do you feed house plants?
Fertilizer 😀 I have a video titled just that so do check it out for lots of juicy tips on it
which kind of fertlizer you used
Natural and chemicals. I cover the details in my video titled “fertilizer 101”
Hoya compacta and hoya carnosa is two difference species. That one you refers to is just Hoya compacta.
I read that it is a cultivar of the carnosa, hence the name stuck. But I could be wrong 😀
I put my Hindu Hoya rope under the sunlight. The leaves turned brownish color... I don’t know what to do...
Were they burnt by direct sunlight? If thats the case theres not much you can do. Just wait for new and healthy leaves
@@onlyplants Yes & I’m afraid that will take years to grow... 😭😭😭
Will the flowers smell sweet
Very sweet 😀
Does this plant vine up if given the chance or do they just hang?
Normally hoyas want to vine but this one seems to hang. Since it doesnt have aerial roots and is too heavy to vine upwards. This hoya seem to be the anomaly for the carnosa too. Ive had some carnosas mutate and form curly leaves!
@@onlyplants I appreciate your response. I'm new to hoyas and I want to plant them outside on my trees and was wondering what the best placement for them was. Perhaps I'll just keep the Hindu rope in a pot and let my other hoyas that want to vine grow on my tree. Thanks alot!
@@onlyplants p
💚💚
Is hoya kerii and crimson care the same as compacta?
A bit different. The kerii hates water, treat it like a cactii. 😀
@@onlyplants ah... no wonder my kerii is not doing well... I shall change the soil.....
my finik palma is sick.can you help me about care my palma.if i send you foto my palma.what can i help my palma.
Oooo I have zero experience with palms, but if you want to DM me with a pic maybe I can have a look and see if I spot something?
@@onlyplants my palma is not very big yet.i grows its from seeds.on the green leavs orange spot.my english is not very well and i cant write to mail.and send foto.
@@onlyplants i do not know how write for your mail.and send foto.i try learn about .
@@onlyplants hello Sean.your 2adress are locked.a try send foto.but dont go.
I've had my Hindu Rope about 5 months now and no growth that I can see.
Yeah they are sooo slow. Try to give it more light if you can
What soil should be used?
A very chunky potting mix. I use my aroid potting mix: coco chips, horticultural charcoal, perlite, burnt rice hull and worm casting.
My carnosa is my favorite plant, but also the one I hate the most... because it's done nothing for over a year :D talk about slow! I have seen two or three new growth points on the vine, but nothing out of them yet. And let's not even talk about flowers...

I just got one and the new leaves are a very dark hot pink colour. Will these leaves eventually turn white? Thanks!
They should turn green right 😀
Very nice 😍💋 💝💖♥️❤️
Idk if mine is happy or not! Which is why I’m here 😂
Lol its such a slow grower it takes time to respond well or badly 😅
Mine very very slow to grow.. what should I do?helppp 😭
They are all very slow to grow... maybe 5cm a year.
Why do you plant a fern and Hindu Rope together?
The fern can absorb water very quickly, preventing overwatering on the hindu rop 😀
@@onlyplants wow!!did not know that.thx!
Can we spray water on its leaves
If you have good airflow it should be ok, but if water pools for too long on them leaves without drying they may rot or get fungal infections
I would focus water on the soil level where possible 😀
Thanks a lot
Thanks a lot
👋
Helo Sean, do you sell that baby compacta?
Haha noooo its my precious... but do check out my latest episode on hoya nursery tour at PandikaHoya, he carries some of these.
kak boleh update gimana hoya yg di tancep langsung di metan itu???
Grew maybe 2-3 leaves more from the video. Slow growing
Wa, only $17!
It’s difficult?! Lol I keep proving to myself that I can keep killable plants alive and kill the unkillable at the drop of a hat… (spider plants and I are not friends, lol) my Hoyas have grown so well!!
Can I take a nicely rooted carnosa compact and plant it in the middle of an existing one that is fairly long but has nothing in the center?
Yes you can 😀
Thanks so much for your reply, but another problem. I have a probe that tells me how wet the soil is, and it is far from dry, but the leaves look slightly withered anyway. Any suggestions?
