How to Repot a Hoya Hindu Rope! 

Wow! Everyone else’s Home Depot is better than mine. Those are pretty dang amazing. Congratulations!

My Hindu rope was in big trouble a month ago. It had been in the same pot for 8 years. I had been top dressing it with new soil. The branches were up to 3- 4 feet long. Suddenly it started getting pale and the curley leaves were wrinkling and puckering. I wasn't over watering it. No bugs either. I was getting very worried it was dying. So I texted Julie. She suggested it might just need repotting. I was afraid to do it, but I bought new soil and thought that I'd better just get it done or lose my beautiful Hoya I had raised from a tiny little cutting 10 years ago. Well, I was shocked at the small root system for such a huge plant. I cleaned out the big clay pot, put in round glass beads in the bottom to help with drainage, filled in the soil and tucked it back in gently ( luckily not breaking any branches) and prayed that it would perk back up. Well, it's been a month and my sweet Hindu Hoya has shiney and smoothe leaves and seems content again!! It sits on a table in a west facing window as it always has. So mine seems to do well in bright afternoon sun. It has never bloomed, yet. I'm still hopeful. So, thanks Julie for helping me get the courage to repot such a huge plant on my own. Love your videoes!!! 😊😊

Wow, I can't believe you found such a beautiful plant from a HD. Great catch. My HD never has anything that nice.

You did a great job with those. That huge pot in front of the window is gorgeous.

Enjoyed the video. I recently went to my Home Depot and they didn’t have a Hindu rope so I went to Lowe’s and I found it!! So this video came just in time. Thank you!

This is what I needed to see. I often wondered how many individual pieces are in these full looking plants. Loved it

Wow they look amazing combined into one pot! Also, didn't know the vines were separate like that. Great job can't believe that quality plant at such a bargain!

Love how you combined them all to make them fuller & so much prettier-fantastic idea! The Hindu Rope was the first Hoya I had seen & is my favorite!😍

You got a variegated Hindu rope from Home Depot? Like where? ! So lucky!

It's been a month and my plant still hasn't bounced back. All the small pieces died and a few long ones might not make it. I only let it dry out for a day, but I regret following that tip. Next time I'll follow my own intuition and put the thing directly into the new pot and soil.

Such a beautiful hoya, my plants just stop glowing since last years and finally she's shooting new leaves

Drives to local Home Depot tomorrow hoping for this luck.

Omg!!!! Wow just Gorgeous hindu rope plant. My Home Depot in Las Vegas doesn’t Carey this. Very hard to find except maybe on line. I’m so jealous 😁

So relaxing to watch this!!

such a good find...nice plants!

I like planting my hoyas in terra cotta also. I can’t get over how beautiful this plant is 💕

Beautiful plant hope i can find one in my budget someday. I keep watching the clearance section each year. Also small pots see if i can find a small one i might accord

I can't believe you found that at Home Depot! I'm having some serious envy right now!! lol

thank you for the video. I "love" my Hindu rope too much, I will move it to a terracotta :)

Absolutely stunning and great job repotting😊👍❤.

I LOVE hoyas. My favorite. I love tbe carnosa compacta and other varieties. They are the most magnificent plants! Thanks for this wonderful video! (Home Depot?!?! Mine has a bunch of neglected plants! I buy at nurseries!)

Beautiful!! Wow!!!

! Have you done an update on how the plan did after you repotted it

Nice Plant. Thanks for sharing. Nice music.👍🏼

Beautiful!!!!

So u don’t put extra soil on the roots once u put them in the pot?

That was stunning

Thanks...mine isn't growing at all so I'm going to change the soil and see what happens. Yours are beautiful😍

Looks beautiful!

Great video!❤

Great video! How do you keep your hoyas so full? One struggle have is maintaining them bushy.

Never even heard of that very cool

Such a dreamy plant!! I'm hoping to find one soon :)

When you mix your own potting medium how much of each ingredient do you use?

Thanks for doing this video! 👍

Julie Nicole! When you tell your followers/subscribers that you'll make a video about something, you really mean it! I'm sooo glad you're like that! I was maniacally writing notes while watching you do the repotting. The finished pots look absolutely great! While inspecting the vines, did you notice any peduncles? Also, I didn't hear you say what size pot you used to put the ropes into. Would you let me/us know, please? I have 3 or 4 of the darker basalt pots like the one you used. I like the look of those kind mixed in with the regular terracotta. Since both my daughter & her boyfriend are in "Concealed Carry Permit" classes after work for the next few days, I'm going to try my best to get either Lyft or UBER to take me to two nearby Home Depots and possibly a Lowe's either tomorrow or the next day. My fingers are crossed that I'll be lucky enough to find one, or two of those amazing Hoya Hindu Rope plants! My heart will be broken if I can't find at least one. Thanks so much for sharing with us how you repot these amazing plants! I LOVE your style. I'm looking forward to your video on installing hooks for your new hoyas in your ceilings! Take care. You are appreciated! 🌾💜

Beautiful job

Thank you Julie. I will definitely refer to this when mine needs re-potted. Mine is small and only has three pieces. I keep hoping it will shoot up another. Does that ever happen? Or do the individual pieces just keep getting longer with no new shoots occurring? It seems quite healthy.

Gorgeous!

They're SO gorgeous, Julie! I went to my Home Depot and they of course had the worst selection of plants. Maybe closer to Spring they'll get some in, fingers crossed!

Great video! Question: in this video there are multiple vines placed in one pot to make a full plant but I'm wondering what happens if you plant a single vine? Will it create pups and become full eventually or will a single little vine just grow longer? Thanks!

when you leave the roots to dry is it better to do it inside out outside? I live in Florida so it's very humid outside, idk if its a good thing or a bad thing

Beautifully done! It’s on my wish list, hard to find a good size in my area.

Thank you for sharing!

Wow when did you find this at the Home Depot?!?

So beautiful. Want to try one

Thank you for sharing. I really appreciate it. 🌹🥰

I like to cut a small piece of weed barrier and put it over the hole. It works great!

Such beautiful plants. I watched a video a while back where the comments were full of people saying that this particular plant doesn't like it's roots manipulated very much during repotting. I'd be interested in an update to see how your plant does.

Wow you got a variegated hoya Compacta from home depot ?? Crazy !!

Hi Julie, I love your videos! I am searching for my very favorite hoya, the Australis Lisa, and I see you propagated some. Do you have any rooted plants you are willing to sell? Please let me know.

Jumping in my car headed to my local Home Depot 😂

What do you recommend as a fertilizer for this particular plant please

Thank you for this reporting video!! I was so nervous watching you break away the roots and get rid of the “old” soil!! I’m always scared of that part!!!

Hi I just reported mine and leaves are so wrinkled. Any idea on why it’s happening. I watched your earlier video and saw you experienced the same problem. How did that plant turn out?

What is the mesh called or used for? Went to Lowes but they had no clue as to what it was. Going to HD maybe they can help. Thanks!!

What's the status of the plant now? I think you had to repot to a bigger size pot than its previous pot.

Is it considered a Succulent and how often do I water it

Great buy. I just bought one in a 4-inch pot a week or so ago. I like terra cotta but where are you finding that grey/clay color? I can only find the orange ones.

Home Depot!!!!! Wow!

I found a few at my local Lowe's!!

Oh my gosh, I can't believe you found a huge variegated one at HD!

My local HD has these as well as the more sought after variegated variety often. I have never repotted mine as they are slow growers. Mine are hung in a east and south window - one (southie) blooms every year several times, while the east facing one never blooms. For some odd reason, I’m fighting a mealy bug issue on the east rope plant - makes zero sense as I’ve had it for years and no plants are close to it. So weird 🌱

Do you put more soil to cover the roots after putting the hoya on top of the soil?

Lovely repotting! It really looks full and beautiful. I am looking forward to its blooms. Thanks for sharing.

Where do I find a Hindu rope that looks like that

I got some cuttings of one of these plants and I tried to propagate them by means of soil propagation and air layering and they all rotted. Any ideas about vegetative propagation?

I have an inssue with growing / repotting/ Media issue like to share and know if you or in your chennel oyher viewers has suggesion for me 1 out of 48 my 4 hoys i repoted in match 19 after store brought .

If you like may skip and sorry for a long text with my poor English !! Stay fine .

Both of you are beautiful.

Where I live Home Depot under water all their plants

I wouldn’t advise the mesh bc the roots could get caught up in it

Piękna hoya😍 daj kawałek😅

so you just plop it on top of soil...not cover the roots with more soil?

Wow I need your Home depot, I get nothing where I live.

If I buy at stores since they overwater I put fresh dry soil don't want to take a chance of root rot

FROM THE HOME DEPOT MY ASS!!! They don't carry them here. I'm soooo jealous

Did you say Home Depot ?!!?!!

Not enough soil.

I wish my Home Depot’s overwatered all there plants are so dry and half dead it’s so sad

I'll send you money to go get me one and send to me. My home Depot doesn't ever get these in and I'm doing to have one!!

My Home Depot has all the sketchy and fraudulent plants.
