Ott’s exotic plants has some gorgeous Hoya australis Lisa plants and I almost got one today. I only have a tiny Hoya pubicalyx and am not experienced with Hoyas. Since Hoyas are climbers would I need a trellis for it to climb on? Could I treat it more like a hanging plant and let the branches dangle? I don’t want to get a plant if I can’t provide the appropriate environment for it.
I feel so silly! I bought this Hoya a few weeks ago. For some reason (probably because I have so many plants) I didn’t get it entered into my Planta app for a bit, and by the time I thought to do it I had forgotten what kind of Hoya it was and where I got it. 😬🙄 I believe it is a callistophylla. Can anyone help me with a positive ID?
Part of my post describing situation is in form of photo—noticed I’d written it in wrong place so took a screen shot (wouldn’t let me copy). Any advice or help of any kind would be appreciated!
The biggest leaf of my Hoya Glabra has started showing its black margin. 😍🪴🍃
Y’all am I trippin or is that a peduncle growing on my Serpens 👀🐍
Found this mushroom growing in my Hoya today! Should I pluck it or leave it? 🍄🟫
So last year I posted about my 15 year old Hoya who had never bloomed but then she did last year. She bloomed again already this year from the same place as last but now…..she has another two new blooms going in new places!!!! I am dying and had to share!! 🥰🥰🥰
Hey there! I’m super new to Hoyas and I picked up this Polyneura inner variegated and pandurata Vietnam. I need help on how to care for these Hoyas. I feel like I might be overwatering. They sit in front of a grow light on high for 12 hours a day.
I'm hoping someone can help me figure out what's going on with my extremely old hoya carnosa. She recently underwent a move a little over a month ago and has always lived outside. This being said, I'm used to seeing normal wear and tear on her. But recently a few leaves have these spots. First picture shows a new leaf coming in that has brown spots around the edges. Second photo is an older mature leaf with these spots as well. Not all new leaves are coming in this way. Third picture is normal new growth. She just finished a large round of blooms where she had five active at the same time. Now she looks like she might start another round. She seem happy and has plenty of new vines shooting out. Only thing strange is these spots. I dont want it to turn into something to where it's too late. Any thoughts?
I finally got two penduncles on my Hoya Cumingiana!😍 I have admired its ability to grow leaves for a year thinking it’s going to be the showy leaf growing variety with no peduncles. 😆 It’s any easy care hoya. No leaf spots. Aphids and mealybugs don’t like it. It must be the unappetizing woody branches. 🪴
Hoya Russell is a peach. SMS cultivar 🍑
Hoya Fungii has lovey pick blooms!💖🌸 It’s an underrated hoya and low maintenance. The scent smells like crushed leaves.
Just got two Hoyas, and just looking for advice on how to get them to thrive!!! Thanks for any advice!!!!!!
I just heard about Hoya oblak. Did a little searchy-search. It is GORGEOUS!! But at over $2350.00 for a little start? Outta my league. But they sure are beautiful 🤩
Recently picked this little Hoya up at The Rhoads Garden for $6, but I’m very new to Hoyas. Could anyone tell me what I can use to clean the leaves? I’ve currently got Bonide’s Insecticidal Soap, Neem Oil, and Castile Soap to work with, but I don’t wanna use anything on it until I can confirm that it’s save to use on these type of leaves. I’d also really appreciate if anyone could confirm if this is a Hoya Carnosa, or some other cultivar of Hoya. TIA for any help in figuring either of these out!
My hoya put out flower buds about 5-6 weeks ago. The blooming seems to be paused. None have fully bloomed. Fortunately, they have not blasted. Any advice for a confused Hoya Shepardii owner on how to get it to finish this process? 🫤 I have several hoyas blooming next to it. I bought a full size plant last year. It had old peduncles on it when it was delivered. It didn’t bloom last year. It has both old and new peduncles with buds this year. It lives outside in full direct morning sun and bright shade the rest of the day. Both humidity and temps are high. The white on the leaves are hard water deposits.
she’s finally got a new leaf!!!!!
Burt used to be 3 cuttings in a box and today he got his big boy pot. He's my first successful houseplant propagation (I have ditched the water method) and I must admit to being proud of my little buddy.
Hi there! 👋😊 I’m pretty well-acquainted with houseplants, but very new to Hoyas, and was wondering if it’s possible to simply let a Hoya grow out to become a trailing plant. I have yet to really see any Hoyas with longer stems without a trellis, so I was wondering if the trellis is necessary or not. I’ve been really considering trying Hoyas out, but I’d love to know if I can turn it into a trailing plant that I could place into a macrame hanging basket. TIA for any responses! (I’d also love to hear what types others would recommend trying first, or their personal favorite Hoyas.)
I can’t believe my Hoya compacta is on another round of blooms! Love it 🥰
