So I got a little over excited after looking at Hoya pictures online and…well I ordered 2 cuttings. The problem is I’m not sure how to propagate them. They’re in a covered container with spagnum moss. And advice would be appreciated! Thank you!
Bright light and keeping the moss moist!

when you say you’re not sure how to propagate them, do you mean pot them? or you want to propagate them more? if they’re just cuttings they probably need to get established for a few months or more before propagating again 🌱

0 likes ah, i see! you can keep them in sphagnum & let them root in there for a couple of months! just keep the moss a bit most & don’t let it dry. the problem is that it’s pretty tough to remove the moss from the roots afterward 🤕 otherwise you can try rooting them with your favorite prop method like in water or perlite 😁

lots of light, humidity, and airflow. and of course time, it may take weeks to see any growth. i keep my cuttings in a closed container and open daily for a few minutes for air. i’ve had the most success rooting hoya in pumice or coarse perlite, almost all my cuttings in sphagnum moss have rotted but i do also live in a very humid environment. it’s 90-100% humidity most summer days.
