Thank you again to @ThreadTank for the cute tees!! I hope y’all liked the video!! It was a little bit of a bummer, but the next video should be easy unique hoya you should buy instead of these guys!! I’d also like to direct y’all to a new hoya group started by one of my favorite Hoya sellers! Join now! facebook.com/groups/3103595163059302/?ref=share

Hoya curtisii was actually my first Hoya bought it not knowing it was a hoya and it’s been doing so well for me and grew a lot for me! I ended up buying like 20+ hoyas after that lol

@LessyasLeaves 4 года назад

Yay!! Im glad you had that experience it really seems to be 50/50 on how people feel about that one 😂💚

@twistysunshine 4 года назад

This is super helpful for someone who's gotten real interested in hoya from online interactions but has not got any at all yet like me! Def will avoid these until I know more about growing them myself

@LessyasLeaves 4 года назад

Yay!! Im glad you found it helpful 🥰🥰🥰 hopefully you get some good ones 💚💚💚

@HeadstrongGirl 3 года назад

I actually find curtisii very easy, but it seems that either it's easy or really difficult. I also find lithophytica very easy to grow - I put crushed oyster shells at the bottom of the pot and it seems to have worked very well.

I LOVE YOUR ELLIPTICA! I just got one not to long ago so I’m glad I watched this video. It’s already starting to grow in my grow tent tho! All my Hoyas have been growing crazy since I’ve put them in a grow tent!

@LessyasLeaves 4 года назад

Thank youuuu!! 💚💚 hopefully she does awesome in there 🥰🥰

@MarjoleinF 4 года назад

Nice video. Always good to hear other peoples opinion on hoya's. I totally agree with you on the difficulty level of these hoya's. I own 3 of them, they are doing great, but yes they need some special growing requirements ^^ good luck with yours!

@LessyasLeaves 4 года назад

Thank you so much!! 💚💚💚💚

@janequeenii2493 4 года назад

These kind of topics👍🏽. I’ve been on the Hoya train! Luv your content 💐

@LessyasLeaves 4 года назад

@nuclearporcelain 2 года назад

The one Hoya I would not recommend beginners is H. Serpens. Especially if you live in the US, because they are expensive over there. Mine only does well under a cloche and a growlight.

@Wanderlustforeurope 3 года назад

Nice vid! I always like to see harder plants as well. Like plants have imperfections that's normal🤪 really loving your background tho!

@kimcartwright8111 4 года назад

Great info! Looking forward to the next video (easy unique hoya), would like to collect a few. I'm just starting out and all the information I can get!

@LessyasLeaves 4 года назад

Yay!!! Hopefully I can recommend some good ones for you 🥰💚

@LessyasLeaves 4 года назад

GIRRRLLL GET YOU SOME MOREEEE! 😂 Hoyas are awesome!!

@GusTeasPlants 3 года назад

I agreee Curtissii is really hard, also I think lacunosa is hard to keep up with at the beginning but once it acclimates is easy.

@bootsierellaaguilar9669 3 года назад

My difficult one is the macrophylla I’m on my second one if this one didn’t make it I’m not Gonna try anymore

@SimplyMsJackie 4 года назад

Wow, your H. lithophytica is growing so well for you! So glad it’s thriving. 💚

@lifepaholic716 4 года назад

They are pretty but hard to keep. I like the H. Deykeae but so hard to find here. Thanks for sharing Lessya

@tudo1966 4 года назад

Love your videos. I have a happy curtisii, I leave in H town too. I have it outside hanging behind a 70% sunshade cloth in a east facing porch. It is super happy there. Hope it helps.

@sharfinbean3362 4 года назад

Good info, the only one I have of these is the curtsii and I do pretty good with it. I’ve even started two new pots of it!

@mariadanci3867 4 года назад

I just got a Curtisii. Hoping it does well🤞

@LessyasLeaves 4 года назад

Yaaaaay!!! Im happy you got its care down 💚💚💚

@sharfinbean3362 4 года назад

Maria Danci that one takes a little more water I find

@plantsinner5072 4 года назад

yeah...the curtisii...haha. ugh. i have one and kept moving it around to figure it out. i think i found the right spot and waterings...not even sure yet but it's alive at least!🤪 Thanks for all the warnings!

@LessyasLeaves 4 года назад

Haha Im happy its still alive!! Thank you for watching 💚💚💚

@MillennialPlanter 4 года назад

I agree with the curtisii. Mine has taken forever to root. Got a huge one in the mail and it all died in like 2 weeks 🥴 so over them but I just love them

@LessyasLeaves 4 года назад

I feel like everyone is 50/50 on this one 😫 it just nooooot one Id risk the money for 🤷🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️

@lifepaholic716 3 года назад

I love Hoyas but I don't think I'll ever collect them all 🤣 Because I agree on what you said that some of them are hard to care for and they are expensive. I do have a Hoya Curtisii and it didn't lose leaves because I bought it as a cutting but it's not doing anything 😂 Love watching your Hoya videos and keep them coming 💚🌿

@maychang6242 3 года назад

Hi Lessya I am using leva how to fertilize than ? Thank you

@sooth15 4 года назад

I believe the Andauensis gets tinges of bright red in stronger light, which looks better with the apple green.

@LessyasLeaves 4 года назад

I dont love the red leaves because they fade to a weird brown and then to the apple color! But calling it an apple green color is cuter thank you 😂💚

@chrystalsabin4091 4 года назад

@LessyasLeaves 4 года назад

Thank you! 💚💚💚

@riawhetstone3725 4 года назад

Oh my God! I am so sorry about the latifolia! 😭 I really thought it would acclimate well to Texas 😥 it’s mother plant has gotten scale from time to time & I just scrap them off. I’ve never had a plant die from scale, but I’ve killed plants trying to treat the scale so I’ve just learned to scrap it off whenever I see them.

@LessyasLeaves 4 года назад

Girl its okay! Ive only had scale one one other plant before and Id usually do the same! With this gal I only started seeing how bad it got when it started showing icky signs 😫

@mariadanci3867 4 года назад

I just got a 6 inch Curtisii from Lowes for $10, so I had to get it. Now I just gotta figure out how to care for it. I think that I am going to put some of it in soil and some in semi hydro.

@LessyasLeaves 4 года назад

Yesss! Thats the best thing you can do!! 💚💚

@AnaAndreaXoxo 4 года назад

The hoya elliptica is so nice!

@LessyasLeaves 4 года назад

Thank you!!! Gardinos occasionally sells them and I love it so much sometimes I want to buy another 😂

@AnaAndreaXoxo 4 года назад

@@LessyasLeaves If I ever see one locally here in Las Vegas I will grab one. :) Sometimes my Lowe's will get cool and unique plants but they sell out quick!

@Wanderlustforeurope 3 года назад

Hahaha lol hoya endauensis was my second hoya actually and it's the first one to really grow!🙈 I love mine! Hehe. Hope yours will grow for you too!

@miraseraina1371 3 года назад

I have Montana - she grov up very well. Unfortunatelly is not for beginers - you don't know when is good, and when is bad - and what is that. The leaves are allways the same, and then - she reject the leaves, just like that. Also i have a Obovata, and her is easy to catch when is bad - her leaves are not quite the same in this time, but she not giving up for her leaves, even the leaves are sunburn or overwather. Nice that you catch that everyone hoya are diffrent - in begginers noone know that. Nice that you catch at start that everyone hoya are different - in beginners no one know that, but is very important! Thank you!

@chicmommaplants9692 4 года назад

I’ve been having luck with my curtisii 💕

@LessyasLeaves 4 года назад

Yay!!! Happy to hear that 🥰🥰🥰

@dreamsofhoya 4 года назад

I recently bought a baby Curtisii so... 🤞 wish me luck! 😆

@LessyasLeaves 4 года назад

Good luck!!! Im sure you’ll do great 💚💚

@sharon_rn2066 4 года назад

dreamsofhoya The curtisii is one of my easiest plants! I’ve had it for over 18 months and is hanging almost to the floor plus I’ve cut it back twice. It gets Eastern sun in the morning right now since she’s outside on my screened porch. Hangs in my West window during the a Winter with a room humidifier. Water it when I think she’s dry (about weekly Summer and two weeks in Winter) No blooms yet but beautiful foliage. In soil but the rooted cuttings are in LECA and both are doing great. Enjoy your plant and good luck 🍀

@rootedinplants 4 года назад

I find that the elliptica is an incredibly slow grower.

@LessyasLeaves 4 года назад

When I put mine in my tent it really took off! So maybe more light and higher humidity is the way to go 💚

@oliviaekvall4767 4 года назад

Hoya lithophytica is easy in my opinion i have her in coco coir mixed with some perlite dirt and she does great in my growtent , they do need lime so if you sprinkle some shells and so on or in the mixture your all good

@LessyasLeaves 4 года назад

Good tips!! Thank you!! 💚💚

@lizziebee83 3 года назад

I find H. Curtisii to be super easy. I got cuttings that died from the shipping process... I was able to get a nice 6" pot that is pretty full for under $30. I find I have to water it a bit more than my others and I always have a few yellowing leaves. Overall it's pretty easy. H. Bella and H. Lacunosa are the more difficult ones that I own.

@TheLucille7 4 года назад

My curtisii drives me nuts! What do You need! Big fan of you and your videos

@ceciliascarlett7290 4 года назад

Hi lessya , I'm a new plantmom and I have been following your RU-vid channel. I think you👍 inspired me to become a plantmom I love you and your RU-vid channel ❤️ I love all your Hoya plants, but I live fort Lauderdale Florida and those plans are very rare I can not find them. A cutting from them would be very much appreciated 👍 thanks 😊

@LessyasLeaves 4 года назад

There are tons of Florida hoya sellers! You should look for a local group in your area to find someone willing to trade or sell 👍🏼

My Hoya carnosa spreckel has one soft leaf what can be the problem??

@elsafrt5540 4 года назад

I have a Hoya Tsangii and it’s killing me. I bought it two weeks ago and it’s throwing a fit ( I should say that I split the plant with my mother-in-law so maybe that’s why it’s even more upset with me, because I didn’t leave it time to acclimate ). It’s base leaves seem to be rotting but I’m not giving it too much water. The stem is not mushy so idk why it’s losing so many leaves. I’ll wait a few more days and then I’ll take cuttings and propagate them in moss

@LessyasLeaves 4 года назад

Ohhhh noooo Im so sorry!! Hopefully you can save it! 💚💚

What‘s the best way to root hoya litophytica? I have a large cuttung, but she doesnt root…

@UsernameUnkwn21 4 года назад

I got a Curtisii @ Lowes.. she has been a mess since day 1 .. dying if I dont water, dying when she is watered .. i am soo close to returning her

@LessyasLeaves 4 года назад

Yessss!! Exactly!! For sure take some cuttings from the plant! Theyre much easier to care for when theyre small/not in that soil 💚💚💚

@formosataiwan6078 4 года назад

Lowes from which location? I hardly see hoya anywhere.

@hisnameismichael 4 года назад

Ahhh just got a deykeae in. Hoping it does well 😅🤞

@ThePlantUtopia 4 года назад

If you are a lazy waterer like me, latifolia thrives. I put my latifolia either in the grow tent or outside and it grows, if it is in just a regular room, it just sits there.

@LessyasLeaves 4 года назад

Oo good tips thank you!! 💚💚

@amandagonzalez2561 4 года назад

I bought a curtsii because I got obsessed, I got it on etsy for $30, it was only a few cuttings, very sad sad cuttings and im bearly keeping them alive, I'm so nervous they will die because I paid so much and they are so cute, she is a diva. I keep praying to the hoya gods every day that it will stay. I only have about 3 or 4 cuttings left and they are about 4 inches each. I'm hoping they grow so I can propagate and make it fuller.

@mariateresagatinao6832 4 года назад

My Hoya blooms keep turning yellow and falling off. I need some advice.TIA.

@LessyasLeaves 4 года назад

Im sorry!! It honestly depends on the plant and the watering schedule, if you let a plant dry out too much while its budding the blooms could fall off

@janaperry6075 4 года назад

Do you ever sell Hoya cuttings?

@LessyasLeaves 4 года назад

Unfortunately no! Maybe in the future I can start a website/shop, but for now Im focusing on school and don’t want to get started on big projects until I graduate! 💚 I usually just trade and am considering selling/purging locally when covid cases get better.

@aub_k2819 2 года назад

Do you have tips for your curtisii? ..... besides don’t get it 🤣

@TheLeafyGeek 4 года назад

OOF Hoya deykeae is FOR SURE a heartbreaker. Mine had been in a glass cloche hovering between life and death for the better part of 6 months. I think we might have finally turned a corner though. 😅

@LessyasLeaves 4 года назад

Haha Im sorry it gave you so much trouble!! 💚💚

@passthepomegranate 3 года назад

darn I wish I watched this before agreeing on a curtisii!! I'll still try and give her a good life though. Fingers crossed!

@The_Black_Truth 4 года назад

Curtisiis Are CUTIES But THEY Do Make ME Nervous!!! I Just Bought 2 In 4 Inch Pots During My Recent Bout Of #HoyaFever!!! Since I DO Have This Compulsion To Buy My Trailing Plants In Twos I MUST Say NO To The High-Priced Hoyas!!! I DO Want 2 Elipticas Though IF I Can Find Them In My Price Range...NOW That I Have A Tray Filled With Hoyas That I Got In 2 To 2 1/2 Inch Pots!!!

@LessyasLeaves 4 года назад

Haha buying in twos seems like fun though!! 😂 Good luck with the curtisii 💚💚💚

@Swayizm 5 дней назад

So you said don't buy a plant that's going extinct and is hard to grow but you got another one and crossed your fingers. It's gonna go extinct if people follow your lead. Don't you think? Crossing fingers isn't a method of preventing a species extinction.

@notsurewhatisgoingon 4 года назад

I'm not a fan of avoidance, it's about doing research ... Don't assume they are all the same and research the needs of each species. You can be someone who has had plants for 20 years or 20 days but if you don't research... Length of time doesn't matter.

FACTS AF!!!!!!
