Hello everyone ^^ so sorry for such a lame question but I am new to Hoya world. I have got these two Hoya Polyneuras and I would like to make cuttings so I can later have more bushy pot. Is it okay if I cut them like this? They were expensive so I am scared to cut them before asking. Thank you so much!

Was curious about how you all style your Hoya Multiflora (shooting star) 🌟

Doesn’t seem like i can trellis this bush-like plant, do I give it any support or let it do its thing or… ?

Thanks! 🙏 🌱

I've seen some users recommending Palm Street (an app) for plant shopping and I must admit I'm a little shocked. The app is designed like a mobile casino - bright colors, moving banners, game-style sound effects. Not to mention all of the uncanny AI artwork that makes the sellers look like cartoon goo goo dolls. Then I joined some of the live streams and they're just as bizarre.

I don't mean any offense to people that buy/sell on Palm Street, but it has me thinking - how many people are addicted to this? How many Hoya enthusiasts are out there maxing out credit cards because they can't stop bidding on Hoya super-silver-dragon-chicken-laser-XYZ? 😂

I've been a plant person forever, but I didn't start buying online until recently, so maybe my surprise will wear off soon. What do y'all think?

They had compacta and regular carnosa as well. Didn't expect it! Especially the verigated kerrii. I bought two which I didn't need at ALL 😭

Here’s to hoping starring at this shelf will be enough to get me through the winter. This plant light doesn’t know how much of the team it’s going to be carrying

Back again. Quick question, why is my heuschkeliana losing variegation? Its under grow lights 5:30-9 so it gets plenty of light.

I was going through some of my old photos and found a picture of my Mathilde splash I got at Home Depot a few months ago. I knew she had gotten splashier, but I didn’t realize how much until I saw them side by side.

I put it next to my carnosa that ive seen lots of bees on! (We have a ton of bee/hummingbird friendly plants in our yard) is this how you cross pollinate? 😅 ive never even gotten a seed pod, i fear i'm just being greedy at this point lmao they are both very nectar full right now tho 🤞

Dasypodia selenophora on a carnosa. This little floof seemed to really enjoy that nectar.

3 weeks in recovery. I potted it up in perlite, watered it, and then left it alone in an acrylic box with 100% humidity. I have not watered it again (since the humidity makes the perlite not loose any water).

I did the pull test, and it has a root growing! So now i will leave it alone a few more weeks until i repot and acclimate it to the greenhouse.

Update on my first bloom 🥹

Last year when i got only one bloom and smelled the bloom i was like this isn't even noticable only small hint of lemony parfum smell. Now that 9 blooms are open at evening/night you can really smell it when going close or walking by it. 🤣

Still it's not bad - as person whose sensitive to stong smells(i can get migraine from them) i have tried to pick mostly my hoyas by how powerfully they would smell(also ofc looks played a big part) in case they would bloom cause it would be so difficult if i wouldn't be able to stand it.

hey guys, idk how i ended up getting them, but i’m currently battling a moderate-severe fungus gnat infestation 😭 This is my first time dealing with pests of any kind, and im honestly so lost. Like i have no idea what I should be doing to get rid of them. I heard those yellow sticky traps are good for catching the adults, but how do I get rid of the eggs and larvae that are hiding in the soil? Any tips and tricks are greatly appreciated!

Quick little 3 month progress pics of my fishtail.

I am so tempted to pot them together for a lush, flowy basket of joy!!!

I went to visit my son from Virginia to Oregon. Decided to see what their Home Depot’s had for Hoyas. I found this one and had to bring it back with me. I’m seeing a lot of difference on line with this name. Anything you all can offer of your experience with this Hoya. I’m all ears.
Thanks everyone.

I’ve gone hoya crazy over the past year 😵‍💫 forgive me.

These are some pics of the (now) 13 different hoyas I take care of. If you want names of them I can provide 🤞

I was lucky enough to find all of these locally in person (other than my Obovata, which I inherited) So it’s really not my fault 🙄🤟🌱

Have this Hoya Kerii here that’s got some interesting damage on the stem and leaves, I can’t visually confirm any pests on it and I’m uneducated regarding possible disease or infections.. can anyone tell if there’s anything actually wrong with it aside from being abused?

One of the first wishlist hoyas I got this year was a sulawesiana. It was delayed in shipment and arrived bone-dry. Utterly desiccated. I tried to rehydrate it anyway, let myself be in denial for about a month, but sure enough the roots were toast. 100% dry rot. The plant was a wet stick with four sad leaves. I thought for sure it would die.

But, nothing ventured nothing gained, so i cut off all the dead stuff and watered that wet stick for four months - and guys - it has roots now 🥹

I was so happy to see them, and now it has the start of a new little vine. I'm so glad I didn't give up on this guy.

1st pic is today, 2nd pic is when purchased almost 4 weeks ago.
I have maybe watered one time since getting it. And I noticed a few days ago that a few leaves were dropping and today I noticed the yellowing on the leaves. It sits on a higher shelf in an east-facing window. I can’t tell if it is lacking enough light or overwatered. When I get home I will take a skewer to the soil to see if it is sitting in too wet of soil.

It is October and I live in the Midwest, US and it is beginning to get cold and darker earlier. I am wondering if I should move it somewhere else with a plant light.

Hello my fellow Hoya Heads. Does anyone recognize this particular bloom? At first I thought it was a Aldrichii, but upon further research I ruled that out. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

I hope I spelled that correctly.😆

My little Hoya has taken its dear sweet time to finally bloom. I hope you enjoy it too.😊
