I’m unsure what to do with my Hoya pubicalyx- it just keeps growing a long vine up the wall. Do I trellis her or put her in a basket so she can vine? I was hoping to have her in a basket so she can hang down on my couch where it’s cat safe- but I don’t know what’s best for her.

Thoughts?

You can get a trellis for her to climb. They love that. Maybe for now just a chopstick since she's not very big. But you can also let her hang if you want. It doesn't matter either way is just fine. In my experience.

I trellis mine. It’s not very bushy and I just think it’s more attractive when it looks bushier.

Alright- I did it!
