    Thanks to all of you for all nice comments! This is my very first time to write a comment on UA-cam. To those who said something about the plants I said I throw away; the plants were in such bad condition so not even a small cuttings could be saved. I never throw a plant with some potential, I promise. In Sweden we have Swedish Hoya Society which this year celebrate 25 years and I'm editor for our bulletin. Our hope is to someday be able to make an English version of our bulletin.

Fantastiskt spännande att se din samling hursomhelst helst! Har skrivit ner några av arterna som jag någon gång hoppas kunna köpa skott av. Gör man det bäst genom föreningen?

    What a great spotlight on a true legend among the hoya heads! I actually cheered at two things: Her stance on collecting species and the spartan nature of her set-up. We "it's all about the plants" purists got to stick together! 😊

    • @petercardona1559
      @petercardona1559 5 років тому +16

      @@user-ow7bi3se2b my philosophy behind collecting species is that I strive to replicate nature's sublime "imperfect perfection" within my space. I view each of my plant babies as miniature representation of its natural environment. Cultivars to me are an arrogant attempt by humankind to "improve" upon nature's designs. They're are extremely beautiful houseplants but they just don't fit into my mission as a grower. I believe that in order to command nature to thrive in our space we must first learn to obey it. That's the energy I try to capture in all my plant displays.

    I am constantly impressed at how much time and effort is put into this series, people are fking sleeping on this channel, big time.
    The production value, flying all over to meet the people who actually know what they're talking about,
    it's the cure for the confusing, sometimes contradicting short soundbites from amateurs all over the internet.
    Keep finding and interviewing these people, they are fascinating.

      Hi Alex, I am SO appreciative of your comment. I do think people watch all sorts of content for all sorts of reasons (i.e., to be entertained, to feel like they have a buddy on the other side of the video, etc.), so I'm sure there is a place for the more 'amateur' videos as you call it, but I really do value the educational component-to cut through the noise. I know that is not for everyone, but I enjoy striving for a nice balance of solid educational information as well as entertainment and personal story that hits an emotive chord, because it's what I value. I am so thrilled that you recognize / notice the quality, time, effort, and resources that go into this series. Because for me (at least at this point), it's a big labor of love, but I get enjoyment sharing it with people like you who appreciate it! Thanks again for tuning in and sharing the love.

    This just showed up in my recommendations again, I've watched it multiple times before. Unfortunately she passed away a couple of days ago, she spread a lot of knowledge and enthusiasm in the Hoya community. May she rest in peace. 🕊️

    Hi Summer! What a wonderful video for you to share with us. Torill is such an amazing lady, so sweet and kind. It was amazing that she knew all of the names of the Hoyas and where they were from without looking at anything. She reminds me of you and your knowledge of plants and the names, etc. Your videos are always top notch, informative, easily understood and a joy to watch. You are amazing, too! Thank you for all of the time and effort you put into all of your videos! Much appreciated!

    I loved this episode and didn’t want it to end. I couldn’t imagine growing so many hoyas and how much work that would be. She really needs an instagram so we can watch all her hoyas. Her favorite, Hoya Undulata has been on my wishlist for a very long time.

    this is amazing. you both are awesome women 💚 i just started my plant collection dec 2018, it sort of fills the void of empty nest syndrome when son is away from us while we roadtrip & he goes to college. this video made me feel like people who love on their plants the way you both do, are the best types of ppl in this crazy world. and also confirmed that there's no too little space for more plants 😹🌱
