How To Propagate A Hoya! | Water Propagation Method 

TIP: Use saran wrap or aluminum foil over the top of your glass container. You can poke the stems through it and the position your cuttings towards the light. Keeps them from falling out or tipping out of the water.

I love how you get straight to the point. Knowledgeable and simple. THANK YOU

I love how you explained this clearly in just 5 minutes. Going to try it now!

Perfect! I just purchased a new hoya after years of missing mine, and it had a lot of scraggly ends where someone just hacked the ends off. It cleaned up beautifully! Thank you!

One of my students brought a bunch of hoya flowers and it was the first time I’ve ever seen those. I fell in love with the flowers so I asked him to bring a plant if possible. He brought like thousand vines and I had no idea that they were vines😂 I was curious as to how to plant them and you saved me❤

Only 6 days, and i got beautiful roots on every cutting! Ty mr Everything Plants.

Recently I’ve used Lecca to root my Hoya cuttings (helps hold the cuttings in place). I also take some cuttings from my Golden Pothos and put them in the same container(s). Adding the Pothos seems to make rooting easier and faster. I had seen it done this way so I tried it and it seems to work pretty well. Thanks for the video, no fluff, to the point and very informative.

Hoyas are so easy to propagate, especially if you use new growth. I’ve rooted them in water, and by just shoving the cutting into soil. I have some obovata cuttings that have been in water on my kitchen windowsill for a few years, they are blooming right now.

Thank you for his video! This is exactly what I did and I’m so excited!

I can’t wait to try this!

Thank you for this video. Just ordered some Perlite and gonna propogate both ways - in plain water and in Perlite. What I liked about the Perlite, was the roots grew out a bit larger (per someone's comment below). I have a long spike to experiment with, and look forward to the results. This video helps me a LOT!

Perfect demonstration and explanation.

The easiest best and cheapest way to do it. Cut water and they root. Plant and you have new beauty’s. Thanks for the video :)

really likr your dry humour and you are a good teacher!

Thank you so much for this! I started working with plants earlier this year, having basically no prior knowledge or education of anything related and I'm currently in a period where I attempt propagating a bunch. thanks to this vid I also learnt the word propagate in English!

Another great video! Thanks for sharing.

I never knew it was this easy to propagate hoya thank you

Thank you, now I know how to cut my Hoya. That vid' shows and explains clear how to do it! 🤩

Thank you 🙏🏻 This was very clear and I might now be ready to propagate my Hoya.

Thank you! I’ve just propagated mine and I did it the same exact way and so far it’s successful 🙌🏼

I have a 20 year old hoya growing in water. I just fill the water up when the level of water is low and occasionally add a tiny amount of fertilizer.

Luv how you share very clear way of propagating hoya. Thank you so much.

Very helpful!

Thank you, this was very helpful.

Very helpful video … thanks so much! 🇨🇦

Works well putting them along side pothos trimmings in a hang on back filter on an aquarium

Thank you for the clear, concise video. Very helpful! I recently learned that homemade popsicle containers work very well for water propagation, as well.

Great video, so easy to follow and quick and easy which is the best! 😃😃

Dope. will try. Thx for info.

Thank you! I just snipped my plant apart and put the pieces in a reused glass jar that once held minced garlic. 😊

I got exactly this hoya as an extra free plant in an order of Nepenthes and Drosera. Given that I only had 50/50 peat/perlite on hand, I stuck it in that. They rooted no problem and they're doing great today. I just did a repot in some succulent potting mix for a bit of nutrient.

I’m planning to use the water method. I can’t wait to see roots. Starting today!

I would like to see a comparison as well. Thanks for getting 6o the point. Very helpful.

I would def love to see a video comparing those prop methods !

My not-yet father-in-law gave me a couple of clippings from his plant in 1987. I have a big one with vines that are all over my office walls with t-pins. It has a west-facing window and loves the afternoon sun. I have given many propagated plants to friends and family and teachers over the years. I just took a lot of cuttings off another one of my plants so that I can give hoyas for Christmas presents.

Thank you :) I am propegating my mom's mature hoya that came from a cutting of my great grandmother's hoya and this has helped so much

Great post.

Super informative, thanks a lot :)

Thanks for the info. Easy to follow. I did not know where to cut from the mama plant. 5:18

Thank you.

Thank you ❤

Great minds think alike I was strongly thinking about propagating my Hoyas as well.

I put cling wrap over the jar of water and poke little holes for the cuttings to go through.

I’m rooting a Irvina in coco husk and perlite in a “prop box” (old takeout container) and I think it’s working nicely. 😊

فكرة جميلة شكرا

Thank you so much!!!

Thanks! Off to prune my Hoya Hindu Rope to propagate it! Thanks so much!

Thank you for this! I inherited a very large and out of control hoya when my grandmother passed away, and I wanted to make a few little copies of this plant as it’s quite sentimental and I’d be very upset if i ever killed it. Hopefully my cuttings take and I’ll have her hoya forever!

love the content. I also have a jade and an elephant bush. subbed.

Nice🥰🥰🥰👌👌

that’s really handy. recently got into hoyas. how do you get them to flower though? 💚

For top-heavy cuttings like the first one you did, a narrow container is effective. I have an old juice glass that works very well for cuttings like it. Mind you, if you have several cuttings like what you have in the video, they tend to prop one another up quite well in a broader container.

I was inspired by your video to clone my own Hoja mother which my mom was generous to let me have. The plant itself is massive and more than 20 years old and root bound in its planter. I made 9 cuttings today which I've used the water propagation method with. I would be surprised if all of the cuts don't come through well. I used soda and water bottles as cloning containers because the narrow rim seems to hold the cutting upright while keeping leaves from dropping below the water line.

I love the info without all the silly.

My hoya carnosa compacta is incredibly slow to root! Over 4 months in water, 3 roots only, less than 1cm long😁 The leaves are still very healthy and I have put a baby spider plant to root with it...people say it helps and I think I noticed slightly better rooting when I tried it with philodendron cuttings 🤔 I'll wait and see.

Ooh I love science project.. let's see which medium grows best roots!

Must be hoya season, was also about to propagate my hoyas this week :-D

Wow thank you so much , i have hoya plant too .Going to try it ,this coming summer😘❤

❤❤❤❤

I rooted my Hoya Carnosa cutting in perlite and it worked great! Also seemed like the roots were thicker/different than water roots, which makes me think that the transition to soil is gonna be easier. But this is my first Hoya cutting so I’ll see!

💚💚

Hi, I'm a forest plant seeker from Indonesia

Hey brother, ty so very much for this video, str8 2 the point. I have a spot, it's called 'the Cactus Store', downtown Manhattan, that's sooo worth checking out to anyone in NYC. Anywayz, i made a pal over there over the past 3yrs, and he gives me cuttings and/or sik plants that just need that xtra attention, he knows u'll give it to em, and I'd like to think i have a natural grn thumb. So, yesterday he gave me a nice lil sampler, lol. • a Hoya stem, which i just cut into 5 sep pieces as u did, and i think they'll b doing pretty well. Not only do 3 of the 5 have 2 leaves at the node below my cut, but each have a ridiculous amount of air root sproutlings already visible. Also gave me: • an awesome Tephrocactus Strobiliformis, which is gorgeous even at just over 3 inches (think my fav). • a 4" rooted Gasteria, the linear 'ox tongue' type (i already own 2 of the kind that grow in a more circular fashion, also the small 4" king • a gr8 lil Gymnocalycium that has some roots, but loox a bit sickly, I'll help him tho • a rooted Mammillaria type, unfortunately something took a small bite out of it • and, i think, some kind of Euphorbia, either the Japarnica or Globosa, or, i saw one that looked very similar called a 'Corn Cob Cactus'??. • and acourse the Hoya I know this doesn't sound like much, but worth proper propagation i end up with some pretty sweet results. Anywayz, apologies for the lengthy novel i wrote u, lol, but there's a reason... I'm adding a very short video clip of them all, he's naming them, but ican use any advice on any of them being that I've only branched out into cacti and succ's over the past few yrs. Side note, i root everything in water, i was sooo very surprised at how well my cacti root in water. Any advice would b truly appreciated. Ty for the knowledge either way, and u've a new sub here brother. Dang, i can't add the video clip....

I USE SEAWEED SOAKED IN RAIN WATER TO SET MY CUTTINGS IN

Yay! I'm doing it right. All but killed a Hoya I had for years... too much plant food. Will start over now!

thanks. hoya in my country has oval heartish shape leaf..same flowers

Glavne informacije, če lahko preverite. Hvala

I’ve only propagated Hoya in water. I’d like to know how the 3 different methods compare. Hoyas are such slow growers it would be great to know which one is best Thanks for the great video. Stay safe

off to go do this rn cus mines a long vine and I want to encourage more growth. the leaves and rest of the plant is healthy and strong just leggy

Sometimes I propagate Hoya in soil and it works really well too!

I have used this method of water cloning and also grew hojas out of my fish tank. Out of all the plants I've tried growing indoors I have had the most luck with Hoja Carnosa. I live in new england and I've kept Hojas in my bedroom year round. I did an experiment with deep water hydroponics which had some great root growth but the longer the roots are completely submersed in fertilized water the plants will become water logged. I liked your video and I'm wondering if you grow your Hojas indoors under grow lights or some other method.

Thank you for this! I have a question, when is a good time to propagate hoya? We're in spring at the moment and I'm wondering if I should do it now

Do Hoyas root all along the stem

Will this work for krimson queen? Mine failed miserably

I do the water method but with a zip lock. And pretty much put them in the shade away from any direct light

what substrate do you recommend? thanks for the video, I just inherited my grandmothers hoya that she had for 40 years!

Do you happen to have an update on the propagations? I'd love to see it :)

Chop it up! ✂️

Great video. How old must a hoya be to propagate it?

Hi I want to learn how to propagate hoyas and which method gives the best results. Video of perlite prop will be appreciated. Thank you😅

Hi! Thank you for this video. It’s exactly what I needed. I have 2 questions for you. 1- You mentioned in the video that the vine without leaves can also be propagated. Is it the same process? Stick the little aerial root into the water? 2- Is it ok to propagate my Hoya in early July?

So the new roots can come out basically anywhere on the stem end?! Not out from the other side of the node? If so, that's really handy!

Would like to see three different propagation methods comparison.

Bună. Am mai multe plante/rădăcini de "Lacrimă Maicii Dmnului" într un singur ghiveci. Ce este de făcut? Trebuie să răresc plantele? Aștept 👋

I have a Hoya just like this. What type is it please? , It must be 80 or more years old and its super long. It used to flower beautifully but not for 11 years as it didn’t like being on a shelf. I just moved house and it drapes all down the stairs hall banisters .i do hope it flowes

Interested to see how each method works. I prop all my plants in half cactus soil and half perlite covered with a ziplock bag. I’ve tried water propagation on a few varieties but soil seems to do better for me.

I would like to see the different methods of propagation.

Use 2 rubber bands on the cup to hold them in the water.

👌😍🤩❤️🙋‍♀️🙏🙏💕🌹

Do I need to let the cuttings callous over before putting in water???

I have a big one l order,it had some long stem (should I root it, or leave it alone?

How long do the roots need to be before planting the props?

should you only propogate in spring? or is it ok to propogate at any time? Thank you!

Please show the difference between 3 growing mediums.

Hey, I inherited an overgrown Hoya. Can I prune it and propagate it now in August since it’s a house plant or I need to wait till spring ?

Todas las hoyas se pueden poner en agua

When propagating Hoyas, do you need to let the cuttings callous over before submerging in water?

Thank you, which Hoya is it in your video? Ty

Will just the leaf root if it is broken off?

I was just wondering if you could start a rooting with leaves ?
