    I love these videos. I used to "hate" hoyas, then I was gifted a Krimson queen, and I fell down the rabbit hole. I'm definitely adding some of these to my wishlist.

    💯Hoyas do need more water than what you might think! Although their foliage is thick and succulent, their roots are small and thin. I changed the soil to a less chunky mix and water more frequently and they’re thriving!

    • @megshush
      @megshush Рік тому +1

      Agreed!! I find that they thrive in a coco coir mix because of the water retention. Chunky soil and they start to desiccate their roots for me.

    When i first started to love hoyas,I was sooo happy to just find the basic carnosa ,Krimsons and whatever else the big box stores offered up.After 2years of ordering on line now.I still look at my basic hoyas with awe.They have grown full,got pests,cleaned up gone thru alot and still are beautiful. THANK YOU for taking time to share and as always spread your knowledge to us.

    12:04 that scarring on the underside of the leaves is pretty characteristic of flat mites and would explain the years of no growth. I’m glad to see it’s growing for you!

      I hope he reads it too. Commercial Growers, the Swedish Hoya Society, and much of Europe have known about these Flat Mites for years. Would have been nice if they had let us all know 8 years ago when they knew. Sulfur Treatments are the best. I use Tea Tree oil & water in a spray on the leaves and in the soil but there are times this won't be enough. The long time periods with no growth are also indicative of flat mites. There are a few species that can be super slow growers notoriously like Kerrii & Serpens but most Hoya should be vigorous growers as long as people fertilize year round. Yes year round. They work on roots during the winter and need the fertilizer so they can grow abundantly and productively in Spring & Summer. Found this out from a Botanist/ Chemist doing soil studies.

    Hi Nick! Oh my, you were in such a fun/sassy mood and I loved it! You're so much fun to watch and listen to. Those hoyas are really pretty! I hope you will do a video on all of your hoyas, and which ones are your favorite, and which ones bloom the most. I know you said your multiflora blooms a lot, and I hope to find one, but are there others that bloom quite often, too? Thank you so much for sharing!

    Hoyas are perfect plants in (small) apartments here in Paris or anywhere else in big cities, they are small, growing slowly and has a certain "charm" like in "le charme discret de la bourgeoisie", they are not "in your face" like those philodendrons or anthuriums beauties.... I have yet 3 of them, a Hoya wayetii, a Hoya retusa and a Hoya linearis. I am now considering buying a Hoya callistophylla and a Hoya australis Lisa ... they are so different that it is difficult to believe that they belong to the same family, like me and my sister, but this is another story .....

    Oh wow! Globulosa is on my wishlist and just leveled up on my list to the point of being one that I’ll purchase it when I buy my next round of plants. It makes a huge difference when you see it in pictures vs on a video where you can see it move around, see variations of diff shades of green not picked up in a picture. And I’m sure seeing it in person intensifies everything. I’ll bet it stunning in person!

    I've recently moved countries and had to sell my plants, but for a tiny Rhipsalis cutting that I smuggled in my carry on. Now I have 5 planties and one of them is something of a speckled Carnosa. Gorgeous. But Nick's definitely reminded me to get more Hoyas.

  • @andreeawhatever
    @andreeawhatever Рік тому

    I have not tried anything else, but I have not had any issues with soil. I use a mix of 1/3 bark, 1/3 perlite and 1/3 potting soil of decent quality. I keep all my hoyas on east facing windows. All of them are growing and a couple of them bloom multiple times per year. When I move them from the prop box to soil, I keep them in a zip lock for a while. This is mostly because I tend to forget watering on time, and these plants are more vulnerable after being moved to the pot. I do these for the valuable ones, I do leave the less precious ones to fend for themselves, and they usually survive 😛

    Nick thank for the Hoya lesson. .. they are my favorite plants now. thanks for talking about the mealy bugs. at first i thought i have mold and realize it mealy. I use what you suggest rubbing alcohol 70% mixed with water from one of those hand sanitizer bottles from Trader Joes (small and fine mist) works wonders, and it works charms. Im now less concerned about them since you gave your experience with the pest. My hoya is thriving in LECA, the only way i wll keep hoyas moving forward.

    Contrasting colors face each other opposite on the color wheel. Green/red, orange/blue, and purple/yellow. When these colors are placed next to each other it creates a sense of "popping out". When these colors are mixed together by pigment the color turns a yucky, dark brownish color. If you place the primary colors together using "light" they show up white. I majored in Art.

    Just ordered a Matilda, macrophylla variegated, bilobata, rotundiflora and some hoya soil mix. Could only use the 10% springnick discount with sale, but that pays for next day shipping!

Question: Now that we are heading into Spring, tell us about what fertilizers you use and how often. I still fertilize in the fall/winter if I see new growth on individual plants.

    • @schibbolethsquad44
      @schibbolethsquad44 Рік тому +9

      It actually is unnatural. What we see in nature as the color blue is actually green. It's true, hear me out: Humankind didn't differentiate between green and blue until we were able to produce blue dye. Until then blue was just a nuance of green for us. There still are languages that don't use a word for blue. I think Japanese is one of them.

    • @debbiefox6846
      @debbiefox6846 Рік тому +7

      ​​​​@@schibbolethsquad44 The Japanese words for " Blue" are - ao (青, n.) and aoi (青い, adj.), the same kanji character as the Chinese qīng. Whether it blue or green differs completely on the conversation and subtext of such. If the color is "Sky Blue" it has its own name which is "Mizu". Having Japanese speakers in our family I have learned over the last 43 years that the Japanese language is very specific and is very detailed. An example of this is that there are over 10 different ways just to count in Japanese. Ways to count big things, little things, 3 ways to count numbers, ways to count people etc. The Himba people of Namibia have no word for the color blue.

    Nice video! I definitely have not seen most of these in plant stores (and I work in one!).
    It's interesting to hear what works for people, and what doesn't. My Hoyas grow wonderfully under lights - what lights are you using? (I'm using Florawaves.) Callistophylla can definitely take its time...for me it usually sends out long whips in mid summer, and then spends the next few months adding a leaf here and there. Blooming is usually in late winter. I grow almost exclusively in soil.
    Stenophylla means "narrow leaved." (What a surprise, eh?)
    Pauciflora - you pronounced it just fine. But Bruning (of the pots) is "Broo-ning".😀
