_Posted by CurlGyrl25 on 2025-02-14_

Recently got a Hoya Australis and one of the stems is displaying signs of root rot, and had toppled out of its planter overnight. After cleaning and pruning the dead roots and giving it a spa dip in hydrogen peroxide/ water solution, I’m not sure if or how I can revive it. Any suggestions would be appreciated!

Is this the only one you have? I’d def say to cut another bundle of a few nodes to restart another propagation of one if possible . It’s best to have an extremely healthy start then for it to suffer and constantly dealing with issues down the road .
