  • This has been a highly requested video because I think hoyas-otherwise know as wax flowers or wax plants-have become a hot commodity in the houseplant market. This is a rather extensive video, which goes over a little hoya natural history, care tips, as well as propagation. And if you want to go even more in-depth, I have the Ultimate Hoya Care Guide up on the blog too at: homesteadbrooklyn.com/all/2019.... This video is lovingly #sponsored by Espoma.

    My oldest plant is my grandmother's Hoya carnosa. It is 60+ years old. The blooms are my first memory of my grandmother's house. She had a love for all plants that was passed down to my dad and I. Now I have over a dozen Hoyas and over 300 plants in my house.❤🌿🌱

      TERESA PARKER hey Teresa! Hoping I can learn from your wisdom/experience. I just received a Hoya obovata in the mail bare root. The plant came packaged beautifully, was potted in an airy soil and bottom watered once since it was received 1 week ago...but today I woke up and the plant had completely defoliated other than one top leaf (lost around 5). It is in a south facing window pulled back 2 feet with a semi-sheer curtain blocking the direct light (our light is also not that great in the winter so it is closer now than I would place it in the summer). Is this normal behavior? The roots looked amazing upon initial inspection. Did I do something wrong (other than ordering plants online during the winter)? And yes, it was shipped with a heatpack. Feeling like a Hoya killer...thanks for your help!

She is a Hoya Carnosa Tricolor aka Crimson Queen and she is stunning!! What I love most about her is she has one very unique, long pink stem of ONLY pure white (cream) colored leaves/foliage.

    And I repotted it last year and it have never looked better!

    I live with a variegated Hoya Carnosa who has grown well and is very tendril forward. She wraps them around the poles of the rolling wardrobe rack. She also reaches out for the ferns on the shelf below her and gently holds hands. I learned a lot today...i took notes and am looking forward to learning more.

    This was a lovely video! I've been growing hoya for 20 years. It's pretty much all I grow. Though, I only have about 30 varieties, I like the leaves more than the flowers. I'm also fortunate enough to live in Los Angeles, so most of my hoya are kept on my apartment balcony. I do a lot of the same care routines, from the orchid fertilizer to the soil mixture! That's cool!

    My hoyas are very trailing/climbing with heavy waxy leaves. They are all from one original plant, so they are all the same species, whatever that is! Most have an east exposure and these started to bloom when I was misting my Monstera and crotons and got some mist on the Hoya leaves. Once it bloomed those pretty two-toned pink flowers, I figured out the magic sauce was the misting! I mist the leaves daily and it blooms year-round! I am glad to hear that letting the pots dry out between watering is best. I never realized the epiphytic nature of these plants until I watched your video. Good info! Thank you!

    But I'm not going to wrap it up in a loop again, I think I'm going to put it my bookshelf and let the vines hang, and hopefully it will manage. Thank you so much for the inspiration 😍

    Hello Summer, thank U for the clear repotting instruction. Over the years I found I have that many plants and don't know what to do with them. Most are grown in hanging baskets with a water holding base. They grow so well and are huge. The pots get so heavy with all the tendrils cascading over the sides. The ones with the huge leaves seem to have very small flowers and the common canessa have fairly good size clumps of pink flower. They all in my back patio where they the filtered pm sun. I am now overwhelmed by quantity of plants just from 2-3 cuttings. Not many seem to like growing them because they are not showy like petunias. Thank U. Mary from Queensland, Australia.

    Thank you for your very informative video. I have a Hoya that I grew from a cutting a friend gave me over 30 years ago. For most of these years it was in a room with east facing windows . It grew nicely but never bloomed. Then 7 years ago I moved and the plant was in an even darker room for a year until I moved into the apartment that I am now. The Hoya is now at an south facing window , very bright , but direct sun only early morning and late afternoon. It took only a few month in the new place until the flowering started! 20-30 flowers at once and as soon as one flower is done , another one comes up. Going from end of March until late October . Going on for 6 years now. I love the scent that starts in the late evening! I love my Hoya!

    Your video was a major blessing. I was given a rooted hoya by a friend about 10 years ago. I knew nothing about them so I planted mine in a really large container. BIG MISTAKE! It has grown until it looks like a jungle unto itself and just began to bloom (sparsely) about 3 years ago. I now understand that I can prune my plant to a manageable size and root cuttings to share with friends. Had I known earlier I could have donated some to a local animal shelter for their annual fund raising event. Oh well, next year.

That was over 2 years ago. I think I planted it upside-down initially, then turned it around and replanted it. Still no growth beyond a 3rd leaf. From your video, I have learned I've likely been overwatering it and have it in direct sun and need to move it! Thank you so much!!

    I have become a Hoya obsessor! I LOVE them, and YOU have the best videos. I have subscribed and given a Thumbs up. I bought two 4” pot carnosa compactas, put them in one 6” pot and over the past year have watched them grow a bit, and ALL OF A SUDDEN, this plant has tripled in size. It’s magnificent, along with my Krimsons and Carnosas. I live in Florida and have loads of plants in my sunroom and my open floorplan house. It looks like a nursery! I have been giving away so many cuttings from my Pothos plants to make room for my Hoyas which, again, I am obsessed with. They are quite magnificent! Thank you for your marvelous video.

    Quite new to keeping house plants and only got my first Hoya a couple of weeks ago. I’ve certainly been hooked on them and now have three and looking for more. It’s now the first thing I look for when I go to a garden centre and am disappointed if they don’t have any! Thanks for the video. I found it very helpful for my ongoing Hoya journey💚

    I went to my local butcher shop to purchase dog food and they have so many large, old plants. Today they gave me some hoya cuttings. I'm so excited because it's my first hoya and I'm so glad I watched this video. I'm a huge fan of your channel. You're video's are so informative!

    Hello,
    Thank you so much for this video. I have subscribed and hit the bell.
    I have been wanting a hoya for years.... decades actually, since I saw my neighbors about 30 years ago.
    The flowers were amazing and they're sent was glorious.
    Your video will help me find one that is good for me and the plant.

    Great video, very informative! Thanks for the care tips for hoya, my special houseplants! I have a collection of about more than 20 hoyas! My favourite ones are the ones I ordered from Thailand ! They have wonderful leaf texture(velvety underside) and veining on the top of the leaf. Thanks for sharing .

    I had no idea what a Hoya plant was when I got it. I bought home the Hoya Carnosa Princess and was in love with the variegation of the leaves. Not only was it beautiful to look at but it was so easy to take care of. I feel in love with hoyas after that one plant. Now I have Hindu rope, Krinkle, variegated Hindu rope, obavato, variegated wayetti, jade and sheperdii. Of course I want more! Thank you for making this video! Such great information!

    Wow, from 2 yrs ago and I just found it.......lol Perfect timing as we just got back into our hometown. We bought one of these (carnosa I believe) when we moved into our last home in 1996. We found it at a yard sale and it was quite large compared to the ones you showed here. It was in a ceramic pot and the man had started it the previous summer when his wife passed away and it was something she had been doing at the time. Anyway, he told us all about when they had found it 50 years before and that he still enjoyed it. He said if I could get it to bloom I'd be 'joyfully surprised'.....it finally bloomed after about 7 years or so. The blooms didn't even look real. I took pictures and nobody would believe it was a real plant. It sat outside our greenhouse on the plant tables. I don't have any pictures to share as, sadly, we lost our home and everything inside and out, (we did get our cat) in the Camp fire of 11/08/2018. Actually, it was our home, street, neighborhood, town and surrounding communities. A bit challenging times right now but I so enjoyed this. Thank you so much for all the knowledge you share. It's nice to be my age (70) and be able to learn so much about plants. We have a lot of plants to replenish in our home!..seriously, thank you again. remember to breathe........

I'm hoping to one day get a cutting of my grandmother in law's Hoya. Thank you so much for your instruction and passion for plants!

    Awesome video, I have one Hoya Carnosa that is growing rapid and in a lovely way, a friend gave some leaves last year but it was not a successed but I didn't give up, I repot it in a small pot and different soil and now they have some new leaves. Those one didn't like the terracotta pot so I repotted them on plastic and it has a success. I am so happy, I hope one day in the close future they can bloom.
    Now I am propragating some in water and soon I will repot them. ;)
    Thanks for all the great information.

    My passion for that type of plant just grew few weeks ago, I recently bought 2 hoya krimson princess (the first one was indicated as a queen but I found out it was a princess after), found that queen last week so bought 1 krimson actual queen as well, 1 carnosa, 1 carnosa compacta (hindu rope), 1 bella variegata, 1 curtisii and 1 pubicalyx. Just enjoy Hoya's leaves so much and can't wait to smell and see their bloom !! 🥰🌿🌸 I'm still searching for a variegated hindu rope... These informations are very helpful ! Thanks for the video, LOVE KIPPEE 🐔🤎

    I looked at your blog and realised for the first time that your name, your green credentials, are very deeply rooted. I've been growing collecting and raising plants from seed since I was about ten years old and so have some of the same obsessions. If only we could post some of our questions as guest authors on your blog.

    The first time I saw a Hoya was around 7 years ago, what caught my eye was the flower 🥰😍 I called it an alien plant before I found out what it actually was. I of course tried to propagate it asap & was successful & today I have maybe 5 & have only seen 2 of them flower. They’re definitely a very slow growing plant.

    • @kathystarklandess4448
      @kathystarklandess4448 4 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      iddybiddyladybug Leeza The reason they don’t bloom is because they need to be put through at least six weeks of very cool temperatures like 45 and darkness it’s like a Christmas cactus you have to force them to bloom I had one for 26 years never bloomed but then I found out it Hass to be put through dormancy

    Thank you, thank you, thank you! I have been searching for this info all over the web and your video gave me all the info, education and visual I was looking for.
    I will try to make this short. My father gave me cuttings from his hoyas that I had for over 25 years. Beautiful plants, but never bloomed until my father passed away. That year I got one bloom and then the plants died. Spooky right?
    Anyway, a relative had also received cuttings from my father's plants. When she heard my story she immediately started propagating her hoyas for me. I now have 6 plants to start and wanted to do it right.
    Your video has given me the hope that this part of my father will continue to grow!❤
