As a hoya lover, that's a lovely variety to end up with! Most thick leaved hoya are relatively succulent, so it's good to let the soil dry out between waterings. They like a decent amount of light, but with most variegated types, the white sections will sunburn easily, so nothing too direct. Hoya love to be pot bound, so it may not put out a lot of growth for you until the roots have filled out more. It might put out new leaves here and there, but it will be probably at least a year or two before you see the growth take off/see any flowering. Obovata is very versatile for display as well. It looks nice to leave the stems trailing, but it will also trellis well if you want upright growth. Just make sure you trellis before the stem has a chance to fully harden/thicken, because this type really does not want to budge once the stem in established. Best of luck with your new hoya, and I hope you enjoy watching it grow! It's often a slow process, but the end result feels so rewarding when you get that first bloom 😊
🏅First! Thank you! Appreciate it, I will need it with the Alocasias. I do like them (especially the tall one) but have on/off luck with them. So fingers crossed! 🌱
Some lovely plants. The philodendron florida bronze was my fave and doesn’t get nearly as much love as the florida beauty, green and ghost. Would be curious to see how the rescue plants are doing in 6 months time!
Thank you - yes I agree, I don't know why it doesn't get as much attention as it has wonderful colours! I shall try my best to look after the rescue plants 💚
that was really value for money. The plants were lovely. The philodendron was just stunning. Love them
wow! Great luck. Thank you for sharing. I did not get a deal, but I did buy myself a Burle Marx flame. It is just a seedling but really happy.
Ooh that's exciting, fab new plant. I love the leaves on those. Nice to buy them small then you can watch it grow 🌱💚

Yay me first ! I love the tall Alocasia, although mine always fail. Good luck with your new plants I hope they do well 🌿
