oooh the long awaited hoya video! Also what a cool filming angle and location, i love the aesthetic!!! I hope that all your purging and refreshing is bringing fresh energy and vitality into your precious life :)
Plant parenthood can be so hard sometimes. Knowing you need to do something but genuinely not wanting to deal with it is so real! I needed to chop my huge silver sword and I literally pretended it didn’t exist. Congrats on tackling this! I know it feels impossible sometimes lol
I find myself getting away from larger growing plants to the smaller more compact ones. And Hoyas is where it’s at (even though they can get pretty big and unruly too). Really enjoyed your collection!
Just finished watching charmaine Now Alice!! This is such a treat for the weekend ❤ Thank you so much Alice❤❤ I swear I get a little angst every time I have to repot Hoyas I used to not understand people leaving their Hoyas in the same pot for like years but now I get it It just aborts growth 😂😂every time I repot it 😢 It’s like you’ll pay for this surely 👿
Super cute collection! I love my hoyas! You have a peduncle that is leaking sap! Mine live in PON, but some are in a chunky mix with a bit of tree fern and I toss in some worm castings. Your obavada is gorgeous! My favs are my mathilde and lyi prism.
I just found my tornado plant covered top and bottom with mealies. I soaked and scraped with my fingers to clean all the mealies off. I can feel them under my fingers. It’s so satisfying to scrape them off. But I’m going to try the soap in the alcohol. I repotted it cause the water wasn’t draining off the top of the soil. It was solid roots in top of the soil. No mealies found in the soil. Thank god. But I suspect it will take a while to get them under control
The snoring bit 😂 I thought you were talking to your partner and it tickled me so much. I’m not that into Hoyas but the ones I have, I love. I was working on taming those beasts as I listened to this.
I really enjoyed your Hoya content! You wondered about how many times you can cut a Hoya: nearly unlimited times, as long as the node is healthy. I have some Hoyas that have 5-6 leaves growing from a node. Have a great day :)
I enjoyed your very intelligent discussion of Hoyas. In fact, your intellect is such an important part of your whole channel and guides in substantial ways. Thank you for doing a Hoya video like this because you addressed those overgrown Hoyas in your cabinet. Courageous and refreshingly unique
I don’t know who the people are that you refer to by name (except Jing) and don’t know how I can find that info. Do they all have channels and do videos? If so, what are they?
Rick, Huxley and Doug are so adorable! ❤️ Your living room is beautiful! Is that an Alocasia tiny dancer in the corner next to the tv? Thanks for the video - absolutely love your content ❤️
Ahh thank you!! Next to the TV is a regular ZZ 😂 it gets probably like 10 FC’s of light which is why it doesn’t grow much foliage and therefore looks like an alocasia tiny dancer 🤣
Don’t know how I missed this video…I just recently decided to add Hoyas to my collection. I didn’t before because I have quite a bit of vining plants already.
I LOVED this! Super-late to the houseplant game, I'm all about hoyas now and was so satisfied with this. Your content is informative as well as soothing to watch. One of my favorite creators. And Doug couldn't be cuter.
I know it would be quite the undertaking but I would love to see your entire anthurium collection! Or maybe a feature on some of your less-frequently-featured anthurium?
I love love love you are going back to your love of Hoyas!!!! I so enjoyed this video. Your callistophylla is a beast!! All your hoyas are beautiful. Hoyas were my first love before anthurium and philodendron. I still want Hoya germany and hoya vietnam. Have a great day!!!❤
Love your hoya collection and really enjoyed watching this video. It was really helpful how you talked through of each of your hoya and its future plan, motivates me to plan ahead for my hoyas as well👀
Ouuu I'm super interested in this! Ive finally seen the hype on a few types of hoya and added a couple to my collection recently, so its fun to see other people's collections! 🥰🪴
I’m going by Basie Plants on RU-vid. He is obsessed by hoyas, owns hundreds and does a lot of research. He’s also pretty darn funny. I love your videos
What are your feelings about pon for Hoya? In fact, it seems like you used to be a much bigger fan of pon in general, is there a video that articulates your change of view? (if there is one)?
Sticky stuff? Doug at vermont hoyas has spoken about some hoya flowers that have excessive sticky sap so much so that he bags the blooms to catch it....I myself have never had a hoya thats' blooms are dripping nectar....thank you for sharing this!! ❤❤❤Hoyas
Obovata is a great starter one! They’re very forgiving but they have nice wide leaves to show you when they’re thirsty, so you can get to know their watering needs. Another nice one is Hoya linearis if you don’t want to deal with vines flying everywhere! I’ve found most carnosa varieties quite easy going too 😊
