hoya family photo! 💚
Hi y’all! I’ve had my Hoya for 5 years, started from two leaves, now it’s big and beautiful. Just curious if there is anything I can do to encourage it to bloom? I have a blooming/rooting fertilizer that is 9-58-8 - not sure how frequently I should use that, or if that’s overkill. Thanks in advance!
I like the feel of the stiff leathery leaves on my Hoya Quinquenervia. The largest leaf is 2.5” x 5” with raised veins and a shiny surface. I really need to stop touching it because I broke a leaf tip while admiring it! 😆
Fuzzy wuzzy 🥰
Some of the cutest new growth on my Hoyas recently. This is the first new set of leaves since I’ve owned the Villosa Cao Bang and I’m just obsessed with how fuzzy they are!!! Omg and I found a peduncle on my polyneura today, it only has eight leaves total so I’m very impressed that it’s already trying to bloom
rehabbing this compacta— looking pretty nice after removing a lot of damage :)
Smelled it this morning before I saw it. Hoya Carnosa
The third and fullest bloom from the queen 🥰 it took 4 days for all of them to open
I was supposed to repot my Hoyas this spring but then stoof happened and didn’t get around to it. Do you think it’s ok to repot during fall/winter?
The Hoya Obscura I ordered came with a peduncle. I am both happy and sad. I’m glad it can bloom while being so small in a 4” pot. I’m sad because I didn’t see it bloom!😩😄
This is my Hoya Lisa (my first and only Hoya). I got it about 3 months ago and first thing I noticed is the newer leaves lost their pink colour soon after I brought it home. I asked the woman I bought it from for tips, and she said it needed bright light. I put it under a grow light for a few hours a day but I think that made it worse because it started losing leaves. I also found the soil was a bit soggy so I repotted it in a slightly smaller pot with more a more airy soil mix and put it in a south facing window. It seems to be doing better now. I even found some new little leaves starting to sprout! But I also found another dead leaf today 😅. Do I just need to give it time, or is there anything else I might be doing wrong that’s keeping this baby from thriving?
Hoya ganung gading spent too much time in the tanning bed 🤣 If anyone wants to see more of my Hoya collection, over 100, please follow me on instagram 😊 Just search, herektty on instagram 💕
My first hoya! Scored it from Meijer 🥰
I posted this leaf before but now it is fully mature and hardened off and looking spectacular!! Hoya Kerrii reverse var.
New plant owner here, does anyone have any suggestions for growing Hoya plants in sphagnum moss? Do I just place the hoya into the moss directly or do I need to mix the moss with something or add fertilizer?
These are more of my recently acquired wishlist hoyas: Pallilimba, Imperialis, Iris Marie, and Quinquenervia! The hoya imperialis is from Gabriella Plants’ end of season sale. The other hoyas are from Gardino Nursery. They have some hard to find Hoyas (over 140). I only searched for the ones on sale especially the Buy-One-Get-One (BOGO) free end of season sales! I like free. 🤣🪴 Almost all hoyas have sweet scented blooms that are crowd pleasers. The Hoya Imperialis is loved for the extra large flowers. They can be expensive. The Hoya Iris Marie has larger than typical flowers. The Hoya Pallilimba has smaller light green leaves with new leaves starting out red. It is an avid grower that can last a few decades. The Hoya Quinquenervia has much larger leaves compared to the others. The largest leaf in the pics is 6 inches long.
new baby’s! Hoya Caudata Sumatra, and NGG
got a krimson princess about a month ago, the nursery i got it from potted it for me but i’m worried that maybe they put it in too big of a pot…haven’t had to water it bc my little meter still says it’s wet down in there…should i repot in a smaller pot? the plant doesn’t seem to be showing any signs of distress from root rot but worried it could quickly become the case what do you all think?
My new H Perak Teddy Bear (Peninsularis) It has the softest, fuzziest leaves🧸
I bought my first Hoya! It’s a variegated hoya heuschkeliana. It seems to be struggling to acclimate and I’m just wondering if anyone has the same Hoya and how they care for it? It’s currently under a grow light and I’m watering whenever it feels dry about 2 inches down in the pot. Thanks!
