Should I put her in a smaller pot??? I’ve had her for 2ish years and she’s FINALLY pushing a couple of leaves but dang. I just repotted my Hindu rope to a much smaller and she’s leafing now!? Just curious! Im not a Hoya pro 🤣

Hello! I had no idea this group existed. I’m glad it does! I rescued this guy last fall, 2023, from Lowe’s discount rack. He spent as much time outdoors on the East side of a North/South Street maybe till early December since it was nice out last fall. The sun is normally down by 3PM for the location. After that I brought the plant indoors for the winter. It was a struggle. Leaves dropped daily. By March 1st I was glad to put it out doors in the sun. I reported it in May or June of this year too. So the plant is not yet a year old in my possession and is surviving and has a small burst of flowers coming. He sits in my back yard at at 10:30 AM is still in the shade. He willl get mostly noon sun. Does the plant do better with Morning Sun, Noon Sun, or Afternoon sun? What can I do to make it stronger?

My Hoya Imperialis (white) are on a growth spurt. I got both last September. They are still in their original 3 inch pots. It’s time to repot both into a 5 inch pot because they are top heavy and require water every 3 or 4 days. There are no aerial roots as they grow more like shrubs with upright growth unlike the typical hoya. The flowers are huge and come in pink, red and white. These have not bloomed yet.

Does anybody know if this is a Hoya and if so, what kind

Does anyone keep their hoya outside during the summer? I’ve heard that it can be good for them and encourage flowering but I’m scared about pests. Anyone have any experience they’re willing to share??

Hello! I got a few new plants while traveling last week. I have them quarantined currently. I sprayed them down with neem oil. I have heard Hoya compacta are prone to pests. I only got a small piece so I am hoping for advice/suggestions on how to best care for it. TIA! 😁

Just wanting to double-check I’m doing this right. Mr Hoya (I’m not sure which specific species, so probably carnosa?) has been handed down through the generations — we are at least certain that the original plant dates back to the 1920s and my great-grandmother, but I’m not sure if this is a propagation from the original. If this is the original, my dad said he could be a generation or two older. He’s always been kept in humid places like New York, Minnesota and Northern Virginia. My parents have been stationed in the UK for 3 years, so now it’s my turn to care for Mr Hoya. My parents just shipped him 1700 mi to me in Colorado. They also say that he hadn’t been repotted in 10 years, and was suffering from “benign neglect”. 🥴 He was watered every 6 days when with my parents, but since it’s significantly drier here, should I water more often? I also am willing to mist him as needed. He’s potted in a 10” pot with 2(ish) parts indoor potting soil, 1 part perlite, and 1 part orchid bark because I’m slightly terrified that I’ll drown him by accident. I also got him a wall trellis, but my mom says he’s never been super interested in climbing… Any advice? I feel like I got thrown in the deep end, as a certified black thumb.

Can anyone help me identify these Hoyas? The first was a gift with no label, and the other was just labeled as “black margin” when I got it. After googling I’ve come to learn that just describes the black coloring around the leaf edges and doesn’t apply to a single species of Hoya. Thanks in advance for the help!

Is your Hoya Krohniana Black not black? The picture shows the one I bought a few months ago that clearly has black leaves. The one next to arrived yesterday without dark leaves. Both are supposed to be the black variety. I’m assuming the green one needs more sun. So, I put it outside to get morning to see if it will tan. 🤨

Is it ok to repot a Hoya while it’s blooming or should I wait until it’s done? Thanks so much!
