It’s not often that I get a plant delivered that is both too dry and with too wet soil. This round leaf Hoya Sigillatis (Borneo) came in with dry leaves and some leaves yellowing from root rot. The soil was wet on arrival. It started to grow fungus two days later or so I thought. Turns out the entire soil is filled with it. I usually wait to replace potting mix to lessen the stress on the plant. But, the ever increasing fungus gnats let me know that immediately throwing out this muddy soil is the best option. I’m enamored with my narrow leaf Hoya Sigillatis. It’s beautifully marked, full of new growth with no dry tips. It’s in a potting mix that works well. So, I got the round leaf as well. It’s just needs a little TLC once I change out the potting mix.
