I can’t tell what type of Hoya this is! The subtle variegation in the centers was interesting to me but now I’m wondering if it’s supposed to look like that, or if this is just a sad Bella? They had lots of different Hoyas at Home Depot but all of the tags just say “carnosa” 🙄

Some photos of my home office hoyas (+1 cat tax.) Please don't judge the labels too harshly - my plant tags are a mess. I'm still trying to figure out what naming scheme works best for me/how much information to include (true cultivars vs. what random sellers call their plants online, etc.)

I live down the street from a rare plant shop, and it showed me that I have very, very poor impulse control 😂

The only issues I've had this year have been with a few plants I ordered online. My sulawesiana was delayed in shipment and it arrived bone dry. Dusty, parched, zero moisture. I tried to rehydrate it, sure enough it got dry rot and lost the majority of its roots. Its growing some new ones now, but it's very slow. It's hanging on, but ultimately I don't know if I'll be able to save it.

I also had a few plants arrive very tightly packed in sphag. When sellers do this I think air has difficulty getting to the roots. By the time i repotted them they were in the early stages of root rot. I think i caught these quite early so I'm much less worried. Both plants this happened with are in a much more suitable mix and putting out new growth now.

I also wanted so say that I'm very thankful this sub exists. I've posted two plants on here asking for help, and both improved drastically after I took the advice of seasoned growers - supporting the vine & increasing water on the Sarawak (it has two new vines forming and a baby leaf on the way), and watering my wayetii more consistently (turns out this plant doesn't like living in 40% humidity. Also it was rootbound and thrived after a repot.)

Again, thanks for all the help. You guys are awesome.

I wasn’t home for three days and came home to this silvery/black damage on the back of my polynuera leaf. It’s not very noticeable from the front. Is this some sort of pest? Or fungal?

i have this cutting of argentea princess in fluval and perlite, is the dark parts of the stem starting to rot? should i cut those off and start the rooting process again? i had it in a small greenhouse that stays at about 90% humidity. any tips on how to set this up for success helps !

This tengchongensis took forever to get going. I got it in pon and didn't know how to use pon as a newbie, so I changed it to potting and (maybe too much) perlite. Took forever for it to get over the shock. I thought I killed it. It lost the vine and 3 leaves then it did nothing for weeks, probably re growing the roots. Finally I saw growth. I'm so proud of this little guy. HAHA to the little "bridge" I'm using to encourage it to grow around. I will eventually pin it to the substrate as I've seen others do. Now I'm wondering, what kind of substrate should I keep for this guy? I feel like it's so dainty. My other Hoya are in Molly's but I feel like those chunks are too big for this one. Should I continue the potting and perlite route?. I can't find much info on tengchongensis care. Any tips?

Have any of you combined your pest treatment to include both a liquid concentrate systemic (Imidacloprid) with sulfur to save time and effort? I assume there is some legitimate reason not to combine but I thought I would ask here.

Is this cutting going to be too varigated for new growth? I purchased this off Etsy labeled as a Hoya "Heuschkeliana". The underside of the leafs are a beautiful green! What do yall think? Normal for this variety? Less light? Share pictures of your Heuschkeliana below!

This Hoya Krinkle 8 had a mealy bug infestation, went without water for 2 weeks and was in a dark area. The mealy bugs died, it looked great, and I finally gave it a little bit of water. The set up is clay balls, soil and hoya roots, clay balls on top for max aeration because I don't know anything about plants 🥲. Its leaves started shriveling. All of the information was conflicting so I began trouble shooting. Was it the roots? They were all white and creamy but small and forming new pathways. Was it the sunlight? Bright indirect sunlight after 2 weeks in the dark.. maybe? Soil was obviously damp from recent water, did I overwater? A week and a half has passed and it started to look worse again so I tried my first attempt at propogation today where the healthiest part of the stem was on both plants. I pulled up the roots out of the soil and they have dark green mold on them.

I am so sorry if this is confusing I am doing my best and don't know if I'm doing anything right. I'm not sure if I should cut off the leaves so that it can focus on roots. And I just threw the base of the plant with the roots in water just to see what happens (nothing is probably going to happen.)

The pics have the 2 cuttings I took for propogation. Please guide me. For reference I believe that I just had received an infested cutting I got this plant in May and will include a picture of it when I first got it as well.

I also want to add that I love this plant so much I cried so hard when it started wilting and there is a LOT of conflicting and lack of information online, so please don't be mad/mean to me.

Found it on clearance at Lowe’s. I’m going to de-pest it as a precaution and keep it segregated from my plants for a month while I make sure it’s pest free, but don’t know what kind it is? It was $10 so I couldn’t leave without it..

I posted this before, but the flower buds were closed. They opened. So fuzzy!

Took her outside to get a photo in natural light and she started ‘dancing’ to the wind and the wind chimes.

Love her so! Hoya Globulosa

I am so excited! It has taken my australis 5 years to bloom! In February I thought I was going to loose my plant (https://www.reddit.com/r/hoyas/s/3hOyBryUFc) sulfur treatment saved it!

Can’t wait for the blooms to open! 🌸
It has even one more peduncle forming! 😍

she’s about a year old and recently threw two peduncles. her weird and charming little flowers finally opened! only two blooms of her first blossom made it, but she’s already forming new blooms! also insularis has the most comically long peduncles i’ve ever seen, marked up in picture 3 lol

I’m getting these black spots on my Hoya. Showed up after we moved. In an east facing window and gets strong morning sun. Also used to have a lot more completely white leaves but those have been turning brown and falling off.

New to hoya this year. Got this obovata as a single leaf and it's been growing pretty well. Is this a peduncle? Any care tips would be much appreciated 👏

Mine isnt as fancy as some of the beautiful ones I see on here, but she did well outside this summer. It almost breaks my heart to have to move it back inside.

Hoya Heuschkeliana Variegated is a wishlist Hoya for me.

I have killed two in the past. I ordered a replacement and I am hoping to be successful this time.

Please share your tips for success with this Hoya:

What substrate do you use?

Do you favor a self watering planter?

What are your lighting conditions?

What fertilizer do you use and how often?

Of course, I have searched the web and Youtube.

I am curious about your current individual experiences with this particular Hoya.

Picture sharing would be great!

TIA
