Burtoniae is one of my favorites for sure, it is definitely my most filled-out looking hoya, very easy to care for, and the flowers are so tiny and cute and smell INCREDIBLE. Like butterscotch frosting, really strong.
I'm waiting for episode 2 'hoyas with medium leaves' and episode 3 'hoya with big leaves' (not at all an excuse to show us your entire hoya collection). Loved the vid and your flowery shirt! ❤️
How to do a Hoya tour without actually doing a hoya tour 😂 Maybe I should do a hoya tour, but this video ruined it? I don't think I can make medium leaves video, can't you see I am completely lost about the size? 😂 I already went there with memoria :D Maybe big leaves? Hm.... I am not sure :D
Wow, I've added so many to my wish list after watching this! My rotundiflora does grow really fast. It's in my Ikea cabinet so it does get more humidity.
For a wedding...YES!!! GO THERE! Awesome idea! I can imagine a bridal bouquet!♡♡♡♡♡ (bootineers, arch trellises, cake topper...REALLY you can't go too far)
Oh wow. Just realised. My burtoniae went from looking bald like that in a 6 inch pot, to looking lush and climbing/hanging in 2 months. First hoya, best hoya.
@@BasiePlants I had to go to google to make sure I spelled that right ‘mathilde’ 😂 I never know how to pronounce it but she sooo cute, mine is so resilient
Gosh I rewatch this . After a year I know so much more about hoya . Hoya endauensis is warm grower. I bought a few kaya after watching your video of easy flower hoyalala. Patella I want but it is also another warm grower. It’s still a bit expensive . When it become cheap, I might buy the bullet and buy it. The white flower version is amazing to look at.
😂😂😂 I’m just stunned by your humor. I love watching you, thank you. Now the Flagellata… a quarter of the way in, I thought Caudata when you covered the bigger leaf and wanted to pat myself on the back when you then said the name could change. Thank you for this video… midway through, I paused and purchased a Lockii and Caudata 😁
Dear Miro, this video is one of the best you ever created, I will watch it over and over. The plant that I noticed was Hoya stoneana. Does it really have a fuzzy back side or it was some kind of optical illusion? I collect plants with unusual color and texture of the leaves, size does not matter. Therefore I am asking you to make a video like "My collection with fuzzy/velvety leaves" or something similar. Thank again for this wonderful episode.
That is so nice of you to say! Yes, stoneana does have pubescend underside. Not very hairy like thomsonii, more velvety. That's a great idea! I will have to see how many velvety and fuzzy plants I have :D
Thank you for this video! I'm discovering your videos little by little :) I know that the big leave hoyas and big leave plants in gerenal are very trendy but I loooove the ones with small leaves and beside hoya ondulata, obovata, kerrii and caudata I only have and prefer small ones - fascination/obsession. I don't know why, I am crazy - but really crazy - about hoya serpens, which unfortunately was always pretty difficult for me to keep healthy. Same with hoya bella I'm also found of, but often it dies at one point looking terrible, I'don't know if because of the mealy bugs that she attracs so easily :// or because of over- or underwatering. All theses years I always had to buy new hoya bella always again. And yes, hoya lacunosa is a wonderful one, its flowers are the most beautiful ones ever to me, and one of them is vining all my kitchen around and if I'm very lucky if at one point lots of flowers will hang out all over the place. At last I do love hoya rotundiflora too but with me they don't grow fast at all, honestly don't at all :/ I don't have any idea why.
I prefer small leaf hoyas for the same reasons you do, and my favorite hoya is 'Rosita' because the leaves are beautiful especially during the summer in Minnesota.
Your intro is so funny 😂 I’m a lil jelly of your collection, but I know I have to be patient until I collect the ones I want. I have 45 I need to calm down. I know. Lol 😂
I love small leaf hoya! I'll check if you have updates on Rotundiflora. BTW It's affinis (not affinity), species affinis which means closely related to, akin to.
I have looked over a few of these and can get them. I may consider them in the future. Most on these list I see more likely to go mass market as they are easier care and cute. I want a big leaf Hoya, you know everyone loves big leaves.
Yes, some definitely. Linearis, serpens, memoria, curtisii, bella, lacunosa (not silver one), sp.aff.burtoniae, retusa... I don't see endauensis, flagellata, patella, sp.aff.chuniana PNG 6 (what a name!) being mass produced, but at least they are affordable! I think all the hoyas in the list are affordable though :)
My friend told me it was slow in the first year and then it took off. But she told me that after I finished the video. THANKS 😂 Well, I guess I will see in 4 months or so if it will start to grow like a beast or not :D it's not the slowest one I have, but definitely closer to the slow ones.
You are so lucky! Yes, It was named after the river Endau if I am not wrong. You are probably seeing so many hoyas now 😭 Please say them hi from me! 😂💚
I love this video,you have gourgeous hoyas,stunning I should say,my preferred is sigilatis,rotundiflora,serpens,linearis,retusa etc to name of few but I love them so much the new growth is soooo adorable 🥰😍😘🤗I can't wait to see the flowers this year 💜
I love sigillatis! Retusa has gorgeous flowers, I hope you get to see them this year. I don't have much faith my serpens will bloom, but I am willing to forigve it if it grows well!
This is hard to choose favorite but retusa looks like fireworks when it bloom & it's good bloomer for me beside lacunosa. So it's one of my favorite. I love love love small leaf hoyas, so I do love collecting them all. The smallest I have is chinghungensis.. it seem much smaller than my serpens which I adore. I falling in love w/ memoria becuz it fast easy grower & loves how it drapes down so much. 🥰 Also, I think rotundiflora is fast grower in my experience.. 🤷🏻♀️
Retusa is so good with blooming! And the flowers are gorgeous too. Quite big compared to the leaf. I love lacunosas so much now. I don't have chinghungensis. I wanted to get it last year, but it was a bit out of my price range because I got 10 other hoyas before it 😂 I like the way memoria hangs, for sure! Hmmm, my friend actually corrected herself - she said it didn't do much in the first year and then it took off. It seems mine is a bit faster now, but we'll see. Did you get yours as an unrooted cutting or was it already rooted? Seems that established one might grow a bit faster.
@@BasiePlants I got it as a lightly rooted rotundiflora baby. She gotten it a year prior & said it's grows crazy fast & took some cuttings of them to root. I've noticed that when you get a hoya from someone who grows it similar to your own environment.. some of the hoyas seem much more hardier. Even if it's same species.. 🤷🏻♀️.. I'm not completely sure.. just a hunch. For example, I have an obovata from Florida (tropical) opposite of my winter -30° below zero environment.. it took forever to grow.. it's like the slowest hoya ever. Then someone trade me an obovata that she had for yrs. It was 2 leaf single node cutting.. it outgrew the obovata I had for 2 yrs!!! It's so crazy! Did u see Doug chamberlain's hoya chinghungensis? It's a beast of a hoya!!!! 😲!
absolutely one of the best videos out there! I just wish I had your skills and soil. :-) Im working on the soil via your videos and now I have to just get brave and start repotting and potting up things that have been rooting. So scary!
I have never seen Hoya 'Rosita', I really like it. Not sure sure about Hoya memoria... mine has leaves as big as my H. pubicorolla spp anthracina 'Black Dragon'. Wow I can't believe I just commented that. Who am I? The Chief of Hoya Police?
The Rosita is in my opinion a cross between wayetii and sp. aff. burtoniae (which was at one point called tsangii). The current tsangii has elongated leaves and yellow flowers. If you look on the leaves and flowers and the way it sunstresses, it makes sense.
Ok, you have my sewing skills and love for hoyas ready to make you that obscura shirt for a big day!!!! (one day I know, I know - to young to tie a knot!!!!)
I want a H. Serpens so much, but their reputation scares me to death 🙈 Also, you know, my Bella arrived perfectly arranged by a professional grower and it looks just as untidy. Guess that's what Bellas do. Finally, to answer your question, no doubt that the most beautiful of them all is H. Sigillatis 😍
H. serpens is not as hard if you don't forget about it for more than a week :D Oh maybe I am then qualified for a professional grower too? 😂 If that's how you need to arange, count me in! I am impressed with H. sigillatis!
Hoya sigillatis. I know you mentioned it is enjoying high light and a higher temp, though it still grew without those components. I've read that they need a lot of humidity. If I grew one in my home without the aid of extra humidity(I don't live in a desert, just a "normal" environment) and heat, would it still do well(just not exceptional)?
Yes, I know that linearis blooms at the end of the vine :) I don't have a problem with cutting them back though, because the same can be said for most hoyas. You never know where peduncle will pop up - on my latifolia it happens on the old growth as well as new. If it's meant to be, it's meant to be :)
I hope you can get curtissii. It is super cute! Hoya sp. aff. burtoniae is also very cute, but variegated version is so much better! Haha, I don't expect creating a make up channel any time soon 😂
I am having the same issue with my lacunosa. I had some green stems and some lighter ones when I bought it . Slowly all the stems are becoming lighter with a yellowish cast. Occassionlly older leaves turn full yellow. It is not overwatered. At first I thought the light was too strong but moved to less light and the fading of the green leaves continue. I wonder how your lacunosa progressed.
Yes, it is nce :) Mine gets kind of dark red mixed with green (new growth) but it fades to green. It's very pretty, but obscura definitely takes the cake when it comes to being red. Or sigillatis 💚
My obcura doesnt look so red >< ...and its very close to a grow light >< you think i could try it outside? In barcelona there is a lot of humidity xD,and my sigillatis actually turned purple,witch inlove 🤤🤤🤤 like erythina ,she also decided to be dark purple 🤣
I definitely prefer cute small hoyas (don't tell your latifolia though). Already have a half of your list as cuttings or established young plants. Flagellata is now put on my wishlist. I think serpens would be my favourite. I've got a cutting recently, and it looks cheerful so far.
My latifolia won't know a thing 😂 I am starting to like smaller hoyas too. Mainly, it saves so much space. Flagellata is gorgeous and so easy! Serpens is lovely, make sure not to neglect it. She is a bit of a b*tch 😂😅
@@BasiePlants by the way, Miro, I got a one node cutting of Hoya obscura for free, but it is of deep green. Do you think it is another variety, or should it turn pinkish under bright light? Never thought i'd want obscura.
Hm, I saw both of those, but I don't remember the exact part :) There is some evidence that anthocyanin in plants can come out when the chlorophyl is dying, and sometimes to protect the chlorophyl. In any case, it is kind of like tanning for us. I do believe there is probably a safe limit, but I did read that some have experienced leaf drop when they moved their plant out of high light area. It's an interesting topic, I see many people do it, and this got red with not that much of light actually - it was off to the side of the lamp. I do think some handle it better than others - caudata for example, tends to get red, but it also curls its leaves towards the inside; I've seen it happen on some people's undulatas. It will be interesting to look more into this and see on my own plant how things will go.
Great video! My fav of the ones you showed is the brevialata. Overall I usually go for big leaf hoyas but . . . ;) Oh, and by the way, love the paperclip hack.
I am glad it gave you some good laughs! Oh, I am not sure! I think I would grab scissors and go wild on my hoya cuttings xD I am pretty fast, so I could probably take 10 cuttins in 5 seconds xD But I would definitely want to have my albo monstera because it has a special meaning (not about the worth here), my Phalaenopsis 'Liodoro' (also a special gift) and my Hoya sigillatis. :) That's it for now :D
Oh Miro, you're a hoot!!! 😂 Small-leaf hoya fan here, chronic underwaterer too (I feel your pain re hanging plants!) and I vastly prefer white flowers too 😍 Maybe we're related 😂 I'm hoping my kanyakumariana starts growing this year 🤞 I've had it for over a year now and it's done... nothing much 🙄 I love it but, dear dog, you have to be patient with it!
Oh, kanyakumariana is so cute! I was so sad when it started to fall apart the next day. I wish I took a cutting the first day it arrived. We are definitely related 😂 Hanging pots are definitely a pain. They look nice, but if anyone is saying they are watering them regulary, they are lying! 😂
