when I first got into hoyas I had always assumed they didn't need humidity cuz they're so succulent-like! I only have basic hoyas like the pubicalyx splash, krimson queen+princess and they seem to be doing ok with no humidity...for now at least!
those do perfect without high humidity but here i'm mainly talking about slightly less common hoyas which can get a little tricky with certain growing conditions!
my hoya Matilde wants more humidity to be growing in my area in Texas and is in my rudsta cabinet at the moment and scared to take it out of there because it begins to dry up
Ahh love them, Gloria! Every time I see your rotundiflora I'm reminded I need one 😆 I'm also struggling with mealies. They seem to be very stubborn pests. How do you treat yours?
i treat mine with alcohol and a cotton swab so just spot treatment. if i get really fed up i eventually spray it with safers end all! hopefully you get rid of yours!
Perfect timing before the dry summer arrives here. I want to get a few more plants but don't want to have to worry about needing another humidifier. Looks like I'll be shopping for hoyas!
yah we have a lot of dry heat in the summer here in toronto but still much more humidity in the air compared to winter when humidity drops to like 10% without my humidifer running full blast at all hours of the day!
Do you consider Australis lisa an easy care hoya? Ill be starting my collection, can you please give me a list of the easy ones. Im considering obovata, rotundaflora, krimson princess obscura and sigilatis😉 Not sure if ill get all😜
I got a not very good looking Obovata a few months ago and it isn’t growing. (The roots are in good shape). Do you think I should take it out of the glass cabinet green house? Or is it just a super slow grower?
both are good platforms to sell but i find more artists are on etsy as it is catered to more handmade items. however, might swtich over to shopify at some point but just didn't want to deal with the learning curve for that site! etsy seems to be more user friendly at the moment
Found this channel 2 years late but enjoyed this so much. I'm a new Hoya owner (Mathilde) and love her. Thanks

There are so many. I have 59 different species and don't own either a green house or humidifier and they do wonderfully.
glad yours are doing so well! unfortunately without a humidifer, canadian winters are just too dry...even for me and I'm not a tropical plant LOL
Never ending battles with mealy bugs is so true .. you not alone .. 😂
stupid pests!!! wish they did not exist
Great info...what are you using for trellis?
If you feel the need to control your mathilde any time soon, I'd be happy to purchase your cuttings😁
haha maybe once it blooms for the first time I will take cuttings. i usually post them for sale on fb marketplace!
Yeah I like to try to plant Hoya it's my first time to see that plants. Its very cute.
Yeeessss i need to know more about more low huminity hoyas

I really like your videos, very informative and your plants are adorable!

That is so encouraging
Hoya rotundiflora reminds me of Pickle Rick from rick n morty 😝
My hoya rotundiflora would not grow until I gave it super high humidity 😂
Mine too! It lives under a cloche now:)
ahh good to know! mine does so well at room humidity!

I like Hoyas because they don't need high humidity and will thrive in warm and bright room. You got nice collection of Hoyas. Thanks for sharing.
❤
But where did you get those beautiful trellises?
Loved this video, and thank you for using other words than the obnoxiously overused phrase “plant journey”!
Where did you get your H. Mathilde I am in Alberta.
Do you consider Australis lisa an easy care hoya? Ill be starting my collection, can you please give me a list of the easy ones. Im considering obovata, rotundaflora, krimson princess obscura and sigilatis😉 Not sure if ill get all😜
i wouldnt consider sigilatis as an easy hoya. it rots quite easily. but yes the australis lisa is quite easy!
@@GloriasPlants Thanks a lot! You’re truly my go-to person when it comes to hoya care😍❤️

How do you know when to water the rotundiflora? Do the leaves get soft? I killed mine but I’d like to try again.
the leaves do get a bit softer but for the most part when it was in soil, i hardly had to water it.
I got a not very good looking Obovata a few months ago and it isn’t growing. (The roots are in good shape). Do you think I should take it out of the glass cabinet green house? Or is it just a super slow grower?
i think once the obovate roots well it will grow new leaves for you!!!
Why did you pick to sell on etsy and not shopify?
both are good platforms to sell but i find more artists are on etsy as it is catered to more handmade items. however, might swtich over to shopify at some point but just didn't want to deal with the learning curve for that site! etsy seems to be more user friendly at the moment
❤️❤️✅✅
Where do you get those trellis?
i DIY them or they come with the plant already when i purchase them
My obovatas were 100% happier when I took them OUT of my greenhouse. So weird
yah some hoyas are just happier with the drier air!
