# I feel like my hoyas aren't growing. I've had these 2 for a few…

I feel like my hoyas aren't growing. I've had these 2 for a few months, and nothing. I dont understand because I propagated one last december and it had like 6 leaves within a few months.

Have you repotted them? Sometimes repotting will slow growth because they’re working in re-establishing root support. Also some Hoyas are slow growers. I’m somewhat new to them but I have found mine love bright indirect sunlight and to dry out between watering

I repotted them when I got them. I hope its that easy

Josie is correct. Repotting can make the plant focus on growing roots. Repotting can disturb or damage roots which slows growth. Plus, the plant can take time to adjust to a new environment and new plant provider which can affect growth.

Give it regular fertilizer and water when completely dry. I give my hoyas direct east sun about 5 hours and afternoon bright shade. It helps them flourish and bloom. A southern window with sheer curtains or a window film works. 🪴🍀
