Can anyone identify this Hoya? I’m new to Hoyas, thanks!

I think I’ve found my new addiction, I told myself I wouldn’t buy anymore but came across this Carnosa Nova Ghost on the marketplace and couldn’t say no. The seller also gave me an extra which is lacunosa long leaves. Very happy :)

This little Hoya Nummularioides opened its buds. 😍 It’s in a 2 inch wide plastic shot glass. The scent is sweet and not overwhelming. A mild rose scent with bergamot (bee balm), the scent of Krohniana and Lacunosa hoyas. It has 3 tiny spiders, one on each branch! I verified they are yellow spiders not spider mites. 😅

This is a one year progress of my Hoya Imperialis plants. I bought two small plants last year during the end of season sales (Gabriella Plants). I repotted from 3” to 4” pots and moved them outside this summer. They get 4 hours of direct morning sunlight and afternoon bright shade. That’s all they needed to quickly grow and start branching! The blooms (red, white) will be very large and this drives the price. They are worth the sales price just for the growth.

Hoya Towutiensis (formerly Caudata silver).. Slow for me but so gorgeous. I’m a sucker for mottled leaves.

Can someone educate me on macrophylla vs latifolia? Are they the same thing? The internet is confusing me! Found this at meijers today and the label says carnosa splash which is definitely incorrect lol.

This is the hoya to get if you want one that’s easy to propagate in several mediums, low maintenance and you want to see a hoya bloom within a year. It’s Hoya Nummularioides. It’s not as well known as the popular hoyas like Hoya Krimson Queen and Hoya Kerrii. Cuttings propagated easily after I accidentally snapped branches! 😊 The texture of the vines are woody like twigs, unlike the typical hoya. Just the growing tips/leaves are fuzzy and slightly pliable. So, growing on a trellis will take effort. Treat it like a boxwood or bonsai and prune after blooming to control the shape. The ability for the smallest cuttings to quickly grow and put out blooms within weeks of propagating is one reason I am enamored with this hoya! It’s the blooming time of year right now. I recently got a large rescue that’s loaded with blooms! I have six of these, now, most from accidentally breaking branches. Give it a try. ❤️❤️❤️

I recently repotted and restaked my Hoya Kerrii and in the process I damaged it… now I don’t know what to do. I know she’ll bounce back but many of the teeny baby leaf sprouts were significantly damaged and turned black, so I cut them off… the tiniest little touch to those baby leaves just destroyed them and I’m so sad!!! A few healthy leaves snapped off. Some of the older leaves also took damage because I did this while the Hoya was thirsty… clearly a very bad idea. The softer leaves when pressed against anything accidentally got crinkled strangely and now that it’s been a day have gone all brown and thin. There’s only one upside to the damage. I know from experience that when the stem ‘bleeds’ a bit from bending, it significantly encourages new shoots, and within a month or so I always see an explosion of new growth in that area…. So I do expect her to bounce back soon. Still, I guess let this be a cautionary tale, because I lost so many leaves… Hoya are very hardy, but extremely delicate at the same time. Luckily I didn’t lose any peduncles 🫠 Anyone have big/heavy Hoya repot tips??

I found a spreadsheet on the types and most of the scents of many Hoyas, but I want input from people that really know. I want to order a Hoya that smells butterscotch like. I was thinking Hoya kentiana. (My plant parent level is intermediate. I live in zone 6a but I keep my house between 60-80 degrees and 40% or more humidity.) Anyone have one in this group?

what is wrong? Is it normal for these to have black edges?
