I bought this Hoya Fungii in September without fully researching it. I just liked the look of it, I wanted my first larger leaf hoya and the price was reasonable. It wasn’t in the best shape with several scratches, fertilizer/water deposits and a few broken leaves. I cleaned it and gave it diluted fertilizer and SuperThrive. It got the darker natural color and put out new leaves. I found out later the leaves turn naturally fuzzy after emerging dark and shiny. I may have cleaned too much of the “water deposits” off the leaves!😁 It puts out one leaf a month.

      Thank you! I would love any Hoya under my care to bloom once! This one is supposed to have a strong cinnamon chocolate scent.

    She’s really pretty and so healthy, Sunny! Mine’s barely pushing any new growth right now either. She’s a beast in the spring though.

      She puts out one leaf a month in my colder family room near the back door. I have two older dogs who go out once an hour or two. I’m surprised it can still grow with the current cold draft. I haven’t moved it because it seems to like the current position. I give credit to the fertilizer, SuperThrive and the grow lights. She is kept on the dry side. Maybe, infrequent watering makes her desperate to produce a leaf before the next drought!

      Yes! Fungii prefer the cold! I let mine stay out (along with my Bella, Burtoniae and Wayetti) as long as it’s above 40°. And I agree, Fungii prefers to be dry.
