- A whole lotta Hoya! Today we talk about my picks for the Top 5 Hoya I recommend growing. Fortunately, they are all easy enough to get your hands on. Thanks for watching!
1) Hoya carnosa "Krimson Princess"
2) Hoya pubicalyx
3) Hoya "Iris Marie"
4) Hoya macrophylla "Albo Marginata"
5) Hoya obovata
Also... I will formally announce at some point but I decided, after many comments, to do away with the idea of a schedule and upload videos as I please. This way it puts less pressure on myself and allows me to upload even more videos for you.

My second grade teacher gave me a Hoya plant to take care of when she found out I love to garden with my grandmother… I am now 39 years old, and still care for the same for your plant. Now, I’m getting ready to make some cuttings into hangers for my SON’S second grade teachers, 32 years later
(It’s a Hoya Carnosa aka porcelain flower if you’re wondering 🙃)
My family has a hoya that's been in the family since I was in diapers, 38 years+ ago! The mother plant lives with my brother, and my sister and I have clippings of it.
Oh 🥺 aren’t plants just the best? That’s such a sweet story ❤️❤️
Wow.. thats amazing!!
💝🪴💝
Nick,for all of us plant lovers you are the obovata......not only for looks but for your intelligence and your passion.
We really appreciate that you share so much of your knowledge and love of plants.
I am going to keep watching everything that you put out.
Thanks.. Hoya lover here..
Beautiful plants. Yes true about the macrophylla they love love light. I have one and as soon as I placed it under the grow light it started putting out the most beautiful variegated leaves
How convenient is it that I impulsively bought an obovata without knowing much about it then I get on TH-cam and this is the first video I see. I kept waiting and waiting thinking awww he’s not gonna talk about it, turns out to be his favorite 🥰 I love it
I found a super old Hoya carnosa crimson princess at a little shop. It's was HUGE & all over the place. Bright pink stems, bright pink leaves. It was 7 years old. Me & my friend split the price then split the plant. It's super beautiful, one of my favorites. 🙂
Haha, "find a man as gorgeous as a hoya obovata" words to live by.
Linda Ruiz I’ve found him!
When I started growing a few years ago I told myself “ I won’t like Hoyas” so last week I caught the Hoya bug.
I’ve been collecting plants for a while. I have more plants than I should. Every time someone would see my plants they would say “you have all these plants & no hoyas??”, and “once you get a Hoya you’ll want to start collecting them”. I finally broke down & got a krimson Queen. She’s the slowest growing plant I own (I live in S Florida where it’s always sunny & humid) & I never ever had pests until she came in & invited all her royal subjects, mealy bugs. I’m ready to give her away as a gift to my neighbor, the one who lets her dog poop in my yard. 😆. Hope you don’t have the same problems. 🤗
You give such thorough information so quickly, thank you!
Hey! I only have 3 Hoya. The first being a large carnosa cutting. I just wanted to say a quick thank-you for teaching me about the "taco test". It's really helped me figure out my carnosa. :)
Me: "Do I even like Hoyas?"
Me after seeing Nick's Hoya Obovata: "Omg I love that Hoya!"
i have ont like it, and i love it, just too bad i cant find another one, they are impossible to find off line, and too expensive, ugh
Thanks for tips, Nick. My marginata and I got off to a rocky start, but I think I’m getting it finally. I have four of your recommendations and I’m always eyeing more!
I’m glad I searched for your input since I’m considering adding hoyas to every growing collection! The obovata is def my fav too! I’m so tempted when I see it, but wanted to tread lightly since I’ve never grown any Hoyas before. Thx for the education!
I know what you mean about the Hoya obovata. I am in love ♥️🌿
Hi Nick from Australia, great segment on Hoya, I worked in a large propagation nursery and Hoyas were prominent, there was a famous Australian botanist called David Liddle who collected Hoya extensively and his collection numbers are prefixed with his wife’s initials IML, Iris Maree Liddle so now you know where the name comes from
that plant that flashes when you are talking about your princess is a queen. I'm sure you know that now
Wasn't really digging the obavata until this video! It's so cute 😍
That obovata May be the reason I finally give hoyas a try
Hi from Singapore. Great info.I keep all these plants.
Thank you for this video. I just found a huge hanging basket of hoya at Walmart and I had no idea what kind it was. Super excited to have a krimson princess.
I agree, I love my obovata too.
Nick, please send all your tips on the Iris Marie!! I have had one for months and have been struggling, I think I over-watered... I've been waiting forever for someone with more experience to get one so I can follow along. 😂 As another note, you definitely need to visit Logees if you're ever in CT. Even living in CT it's kind of a hike to visit, but it's a magical experience that's well worth the drive!
Thank you for the tips.❤❤❤
😂a man who looks as good as a hoya obovata 😂 I love it!
Great video nick!!!
Thanks!! 🌿💚
Hi Nick, I just received my very first Hoya from my dear friend which is Hoya Carnosa Krimson Queen. This video is great timing! Now, I have an idea how to look after it. Thank you for the tips! You’re a PRO! 🌿💚
This is the cutest video!!
I'd like to find a man that looked at me like you do Hoyas but also looks just as damn good as that Hoya! Haha. I just get so stoked when your new videos come out. Your Hoyas are in excellent condition!
Love you, Nick!💕
Beautiful plants Nick...makes me want more! LOL!!!
😝🌿
Love Hoya's, probably my Fav!!!
My H. Obovata splash is definitely my mvp 💛
Always throwing out new leaves, I love that boi so much 😘
You are hilarious 🤣 I love my hoyas too
Love, love your Hoyas. You have such beautiful, beautiful plants. I have at least 7 different Hoya plants right now. I think I also caught the bug....lol....I would have more, but I’m having trouble finding different varieties of the Hoya plants where I live. But still looking. Easy to care for.
Can you do a video on what u did wrong when u started hoyas and what changed for u to be more successful? I think it will help for newbies troubleshooting their hoya experience. And it will be another back to basics kind of video aka reintroduction for new followers. Great video... and all quality men need to be like hoya obovatas! Desired obovata-like haracteristics: thick, solid, independent but slightly needy without being too needy, magnetic without being over the top theatrics, supportive but a bit relaxed...and fill round personality with spots of intrigue. Now to get a search engine to find me that said man. 🤔😂😂
I just got my first Hoya. The lady at the nursery could not tell me what kind it was . I think Publicalyx. I so hope it lives through the winter. 🥺I have grow lights I will keep it under
the macrophylla has been my favorite one to grow so far! I love Hoyas! I definitely need an obovata!
Is the Macrophylla a fast growing plant? I was thinking of getting one.
@@pettyle5624 Mine grew pretty fast. If you give it enough light it should grow relatively fast. However, if you have a cutting, it'll take a while before it does because it's going to try and grow roots first prior to the foliage. The vines will grow like crazy, but actually developing the leaves could take some time if you have too low light or if it's in a pot that's too big.
Hello Nick,
Thank you for sharing your knowledge and beautiful Hoya plants ❤ 😊 💕 💖 ♥
Have a blessed New Year 2021.
I really need to find more friends like you that want to share gorgeous plants with me
Beautiful Krimson Princess! Mine is a lot smaller but I love that hoya. If you want to see it it's in my hoya collection video =) 💚
Thank you Nick
LOL You're so cute! I agree...love my Hoya's!
Just got a hoya compacta, my first hoya. Glad to know I might not see growth for a while, but I'm willing to wait.
I just received an iris Marie from Gardino Nursery in Florida. I really lucked out cuz everytime I go to their site they're out of everything ! But I also was able to get spay Wayettii . And then I was able to get another plant it's called the Philippine Orchid and has flowers that hang like grapes. The medinilla magnificent. It's much taller than the original one I had and it's a beautiful plant I am so excited to get it. I just went through all of Gardino Hoya and they don't have any in stock
I would give anything to find a Hoya Obovata!! I live in Canada & can not find one. On my wish list. Your plant is awesome.❤❤👌👌👌
Question: can you do a winter care video? Particularly for the plants you have near windows. I get a LOT of questions on my IG & since I’m not a plant “guru” in the least, I would love to have an east coast guru video to refer people to.
what is your IG page? Hoya is my new love thang!!!
Thank you, very interesting and informative video👍
LOL love the way that obovata just lights you up!!! He IS a sexy beast!!
Just in time with my first purchasing from the Hoya family « Carnosa variegated » really like it’s creamy color 🥰. Thx from France 🇫🇷 🙏🏼
So happy to see the hoya iris marie! I got one for my birthday and I've been trying to figure out what they're like but can't find much info online. If you have any advice let me know!
This is so well timed! My Hoya-loving friend just suggested me to your channel recently AND I also got obsessed and picked up three of my own recently (obovata, compacta, carnosa). Now I’m gonna refuse to do work all day and just look at hoyas online.
Such great choices, you'll love them. Hoyas are definitely my favorite as of currently.
CleverGirl Pets dust waits , plants don’t xx
i feel the same way about hoyas haha. there's just something about them that make me so excited
Oh I love Hoyas, I just got the Krimson princess, and the two new leaves coming in are pink and so adorable. I also have a really old Carnosa just green that I repotted after many years and some of the stems broke off and I popped them in water and crazy enough they rooted up very quickly and now I can pot them up and have a whole other plant. I also have the Hoya Pubicalyx, love that beauty, guess mine is the "Royal Hawaiian Purple" since it's leaves are the darker green like yours is, I would love the Pubicalyx "Splash", the speckles on the leaves are amazing! Your Iris Marie is adorable, someday I will get this one cause it is interesting and fun. The Macrophylla, it so beautiful, love the leaves and the variegated edges, this is on my wish list as well. Yes, get a bamboo hoopy thing I think it would look super cool to have it wrap around it. I have a tiny Hoya Obovata, I love it and can't wait for it to get bigger. Thank you so much Nick for sharing these Hoyas, I love them so much and love when I find a new one.
You're so lucky to have the pink!
@@lapismosi8065 Thank you so much, I am loving all of my plants.
Hoya obovata is my favorite hoya I own.
You’ve convinced me to try a Hoya!
They’re so wonderful to grow! 🌿
mine go almost red under grow lights, i love them
I haven't really been a Hoya person, as I'm a overwaterer, but after learning what they need, it's so much easier to keep them, and I am slowly turning into a person who likes the dry resistant plants more and more.
I got 3 different types of Hoya now, and I am looking for the Kerii, but I most say, that last one, I would probably have brought it home.. 😂
I really love watching ur 🎥 alot I can tell u know what u are talking about when it comes to plants. Why is it so hard for me to find a ceue blue? I live in North Carolina can't find them anywhere, been looking for months now.
Your Hoyas are gorgeous and so healthy! Have you ever planted them in orchid pots?
💚💚💚 your hoyas!! I can’t get enough of these beauties!
Do you have any experience with the Hoya linearis?
Beuatful thank you for sharing the information i have two of them didn't know how 2 keep it Thanks. 🌿🌷🌿🌺🌿🌹🌿🌷🌿
I came here for the macrophylla, I have the bigleaf variety leaves the size of your hand. I'm new to Hoyas but I have longafolia, lacunosa, Hindu rope, krimson princess, macrophylla 'Bigleaf', Mathilde and retusa
My macro is my fav right now because it tells me from across the room when he is thirsty. I super love my obovata because I have in allot of light and the veining is prominent, which is awesome looking!
Kati Z how can you tell your macro is thirsty by looking at it?
@@thingsilove8630 It droops. Usually the leaves stand straight out but when I notice them drooping I can stick him in water and he perks back up. It is very obvious which I appreciate allot!
Hi, Nick. Your retired senior teacher again. I love your trellis and the back table with all those healthy gorgeous plants. I have bought so many plants after watching your videos that my ( "as handsome as the Obovata husband", which I'm not sharing! LOL!) said to my mother, 84. " Don't be surprised to come in here one day and find a Jumanji forest". LOL! All because of you! Now I have a few of the pink ones you made a video of. long time ago. They are outstanding!. Question, Nick, do Hoyas need humidity? I have some begonias, which I've read need humidity. I just bought a Honeywell humidifier. However the humidity level is only about 40% What am I doing wrong? Would I need more than one? Please advise. TY TY TY TYSM Loyda
Was hoping to see if you had a Hoya Hindu Rope, I just got a few cuttings and wanted to hear your thoughts on it!
Beautiful Hoyas love it I will try not to kill it.
Hoya Love!!!
When growing a dischidia on the wall, what kind of bark or wood do you use? What does one ask for at a garden centre? Please, and thank you. Your collection is amazing. A carnosa has been a gorgeous and faithful companion for 22 years, and it is huge, robust and has three bloomings in a season. What's not to love?
Yay.. Am lucky in India mostly all plants and hoyas are not expensive..
If you can get one (Vermont Hoyas has clips on TH-cam so they may be a source) grab a Hoya macgillivrayii, it likes to be warm and demands a dry winter but the flowers are huge and the perfume is a knockout
I'm a new subscriber so I'm not sure if you've already mentioned it but what are your fave plant shops in Philly? I'm planning a day trip (I live in Reading) and I wanted to do some plant shopping whilst there. Thanks in advance and keep up the great work!
very beautiful, greetings from Indonesia🙏🙏
Alright I'm convinced to give hoyas a chance XD I hope my dad still has his so I can snip a bit of it
hi Nick, loving the Hoya Iris Marie and the Hoya Macrophylla 'Albo Marginata,' so beautiful and for me it would be great to get a Hoya that likes direct sun(the Albo Marginata can take direct sun right?).
my royal hawaiian purple also get new purple leaves
What do you think about Hoya Chelsea?
Love all your Hoyas!!
Hello Nick, your Hoya plants are beautifulll, and you seem to have a 'green thumb' in caring for them. I am also a recent plant mom, visited quite a few plant nurseries, while here, living in Ontario, Canada, but unable to find any Hoya Obovata!! How can I get access to this luscious looking Hoya Obovata, for my plant collection and beautification of my home. Pls advise. By the way, keep up the great work.
هويا من النباتات الجميلة والرائعة شكرا ❤
💚💚💚🌿
Do you have any insight into why the Hoya macrophylla is priced so much higher than the other hoyas? I'm in Seattle, WA, US and our local plant shops sell most 4-inch pot of hoya for 12$-18$ but the macrophylla is consistently like 40$ for the same size pot (Jan 21'). I'm just trying to understand the logic
Hoyas are so good I have a collection of it like 59
Make a vid please?
I have two hoyas, I have a Hoya rope and the one to you have, both are in water.
I want a Hoya mathilde sooo bad!
N
Ahh you seem so knowledgeable about these plants so I wonder if it would be okay to ask you and your community a question? I'm a very new plant lover and I just today got my Hindu rope in the mail, variegated. I was about to pot it, only to look it up and have multiple people telling me multiple things. I don't want to kill these small babies, does anyone have recommendations for potting soil?
Your obvata is beautiful and dark green. I love it! My obvata has large leaves but they are a light/pale green. Any idea what I might be doing wrong? It does get quite a bit of light on a north west windowsill. Should I move it to a place with less light?
It could be too much light, improper watering & drainage, lack of fertilization, or a combination.
Im obsessed with hoyas 🤫😬😁And i cant find the obovata in the uk 😭😭😭
What Hoya is best for a brand new Hoya momma? I fell in love with a pubicalyx at the nursery but I’m afraid to spend $32 on a single plant when I’ve never had the type before. Also I saw it on planterina for cheaper and love her videos and plants but want to support local
Hello I think I put too much water for my Hoya what should I do? I could see the leaves are down and they’re not fluffy. What should I do please should I change the pot put new soil thank you.
I have a Hoya sweetheart that has a long stem that is bare. Should I cut and root it?
Very nice hoyas Nick ! what are you using as a substrat and as a light in you house ? Me my cuttings or plants can not grow them for 2 year ...
Thank you for you assistance
No answers
I’m curious what the fragrance of the Hoya Royal Hawaiian is like, I worked there for 15 or so years, it makes me curious
Please Nick, give me more than 5 ads in 15 minutes ❤️
Foliage wise , I don't find Hoyas fascinating or super distinguished. They look just like many other plants to me. but I do have a few Hoya species that I grow outdoors here in Florida for the super showy fragrant blooms. Most Hoya species have way too small bloom clusters but a handful produce spectacularly large flowers.
Nick, if you had to choose- would you go Hoya 'Bella' or Hoya australis? Or neither? XD
Hoyas are the best
Do you have a Hoya Bella? I have one that is huge and blooms profusely in summer. It roots very easily in water,too.
to unravel tendrils or not to unravel tendrils?
I have not caught the bug..I want blooms. But I watch hoping to fall in love with them😏
Buy one and i promise you will get the bug. It starts with one 😁
You are probably correct..thanks!
The bug certainly snuck up on me 😂🌿
Well your Hoya are gorgeous
Where is the best place in Philly to buy Hoya?😍 I am about to make the trip!🤣
I need help!! I got a hoya and some of the leaves are soft and limp.. how can I save it??
Soak from bottom, helps with movement of perlite💚
How do you keep them bushy
👍🏻❤️🙏
