First bloom
Perking up nicely with the equinox
Got my first ever hoya bloom!!
I got this Hoya Krimson Queen for my birthday the beginning of august. As you can see the vine has only put out white leaves (you can’t tell from the picture but there are lots of spots where old leaves have fallen off and it’s still putting out white leaves from those areas) just wondering if I should cut it back or will it eventually put out leaves with some green again. TIA PS. I’ve looked at the stem and it’s mostly white with a small streak of green.
Why isn't it growing? This is a bit of an old photo but it looks the exact same except the nub at the top dried. This is one of my first and only hoyas so I'm not expert
Just bought this krohniana from Etsy, and the wrinkled leaves concerned me. Checked the roots, they’re all healthy. No rot. Why the wrinkled leaves? The cutting has small roots, should I keep the soil damp? I repotted her in a cactus/orchid perlite mix as it was too dense soil before
Welcomed a new one home today. Hoya Lacunosa silver mint coin. Planta didn't have it added yet.
My hoya collection so far! (Plus a verigated carnosa compacta and a curtisii which are on the struggle bus.)
Any idea what variety this might be? Ended up getting it on sale for $5. 😀
I purchased a Hoya Sarawak and I guess I overwatered it and leaves fell off. However I took it out of dirt and roots look pretty good. Any hints on resurrecting? Thank you.
Just got a compacts for my bathroom! This is quickly turning from a hobby to a problematic addiction, but oh well :)
I’m concerned! I bought a Hoya a few weeks ago and it is dropping all its leaves! I used the app diagnosis of overwatering and dried with newspaper and planted back in dry soil, but it continues to drop leaves! This is how it looks now - anyone have any advice?
I was excited when the first peduncle appeared on my Hoya Hanhiae last month. I’ve only had it a year. Bought it as a small rooted cutting. The blooms disappeared two weeks later. I suspect too much rain water even though the roots and leaves look fine. The plant decided to try again and put out new flower buds! 😍💗
Hey y’all I’m fairly new to Hoyas and I have two cuttings that have been propping in water with root hormone… was this the right way to prop them? They’re forming root bumps now but if I should put them in soil over water prop I’d rather not lose them as they are sentimental to me.
What is the best type of soil to do a repot for a Hoya? TIA!
my hoya compacta has been vacationing on my porch this summer and it finally put out its first bloom! I’m over the moon 😄🌸
Does anyone know why my Hoya rope is getting wrinkly leaves? I follow plants watering schedule but I am trying to figure if it’s not enough? No dead leaves or growing leaves just wrinkly ones.
Love these little $5.98 home depot cuties!
I saved two of these hoyas from a big box store a few months back. Today I rinsed the roots and repotted them with orchid bark, perlite, and coco coir. One of the pots has two stems with no leaves, is there any hope for them to put out new leaves? Any tips for hoyas are welcome!!!
Just wanted to share my porcelain flower, Polly. She was my first Hoya and the start of my love of all things Hoya. She’s a prolific bloomer and makes me so happy 💕
