# Hi!! 👋 I’m new to the planty world and decided to give Hoyas a shot…

_Posted by Adri on 2025-04-21_

Hi!! 👋 I’m new to the planty world and decided to give Hoyas a shot because I love the idea of indoor blooms and I love their foliage! Here are my newest additions! Feel free to give me your thoughts/tips/tricks so I can keep them alive!

\- Hoya Khroniana Silver  
\- Hoya Bella (outer variegated)  
\- Hoya Freckles Splash

I have them in front of an East-facing window for now (waiting on a plant shelf/grow lights to come in) and I repotted them all into a chunky soil mix in self-watering pots.

I live in South Florida for reference on the climate/humidity. 💚

Oh, also! I got the Hoya Carnosa (Freckles Splash) from Home Depot for $6!

Those are three good ones. Carnosa and Krohniana varieties grow fast. I keep my hoyas on an east facing wall outside. They bloom very well. I fertilize every two weeks with diluted fertilizer and SuperThrive plant vitamins.

I keep hearing about SuperThrive! I’m going to order some and give it a shot for these and the rest of my plants, thank you!! 🙏

I’ve only used the SuperThrive plant vitamins. They have several fertilizers. I just use Miracle Gro.
