I use orchid fertilizer and my hoyas bloom constantly.

Most beautiful hoya flower colour

[@sheilacasper2030]

Wow. Beautiful bloom

[@EverythingPlants]

Yes, thank you

[@dbbrbc]

That is awesome!!!! Congrats!!! I haven't seen a flower yet but now I have hope!! On a personal note... I have no one to share with, so I'm going to share with you Jeff!! My monstera was a juvenile, solid leaves, and for the FIRST TIME EVER I GOT A FENESTRATION ON A LEAF!!! I'm so excited and thank you for letting me share. Congratulations on your Hoya flower! 🌱🌿💚

[@EverythingPlants]

That is so awesome and congratulations on you monstera plant! It feels very rewarding when you don't kill a plant and actually see it grow how it is supposed to!

[@dbbrbc]

@@EverythingPlants EXACTLY! And this is why I truly appreciate your videos and sharing of your knowledge. And I also enjoy your experiments!!! Yay us!!!

[@diannenaworensky6698]

I have mine hanging in a tree, all 3 of them. They are blooming like crazy. They get late afternoon sun. Maybe gets watered every 4 days unless it rains. They don't smell until the blooms are completely opened.

[@EverythingPlants]

Amazing!!!

[@vssecretgarden]

That's a beautiful color of the flowers. I have a 5-gallon Hoya pubicalyx 'Royal Hawaiian Purple' and it still not blooming. Thanks for sharing.

[@EverythingPlants]

I hope yours does soon. They are very flagrant at night

[@saltydawg5489]

im glad you mentioned feeling the leaves to know when its time to water.. i wait until the leaf has what i call a fingernail.. along the edge on the underside you can feel this fingernail when it needs water..

[@yolandagonzalez4164]

I will have to try this. 🤞

[@karenjones7770]

I had the sweetest surprise today! I discovered a flower on my hoya Publicalix! She sits outside and doesn't get too much attention from me other than watering from time to time. I was just thinking today that I would repot her, and discovered it. Its a tan color.

[@EverythingPlants]

Oh wow! That is so awesome. Do you know which variety it is from the flowers?

[@wildfern]

Hoya pubicalyx blooms are just something else 😍 I sold mine when I moved but I feel like I need one again just for the blooms!

[@EverythingPlants]

That's why I have held onto this one 🤣

[@robparsons213]

Congratulations on your first pubicalyx bloom, hoping it's the first of many for you! According to one Hoya group I belong to, one shouldn't identify a variety unless you got the variety name from the seller (or whoever you got it from, as not all my acquisitions were sold to me). So, in light of that, perhaps you shouldn't be calling yours a Royal Hawaiian Purple--although I'm inclined to agree that is what you have. Similarly, I have a carnosa with inner variegated leaves that looks like a Krimson Princess to me, but I have been told I really shouldn't be calling it anything but H. carnosa (inner variegated), as inner variegated Hoyas have arisen as mutations independently, some of which predate Krimson Princess. I enjoyed this video very much, as I have enjoyed many of them, and I'm glad you rescued your Chelsea.

[@EverythingPlants]

Hey Rob. This plant was only sold as 'hoya pubicalyx'. I remember hearing a long time ago (I could be wrong) that the way to truly know which variety you have is by the flower.

[@Horsewoman-pt2ku]

My mother-in-law was given a Hoya 30 years ago that I was just given a cutting of. It is a turtle splash leaf with white flowers that give off a musky smell. She has it in a NE room and waters it 1x month and puts release fertilizer in it 1x year. She is not a plant person and she says it lives inspite of her ignoring it. PS she has never transplanted it in 30 years

[@EverythingPlants]

That is crazy she hasn't repotted in 30 years!

[@annvassallo2604]

My pubicalyx is literally my favorite plant of all of my plants! I could never neglect it🤪. I just realized watching your video that this is probably why I haven't gotten any blooms on it! The one hoya that I have neglected the most, the linearis, is the only one I've gotten to bloom. So, your advice is probably right.

[@EverythingPlants]

Lol....

[@chandell9545]

I just got a publicalyx at the beginning of Sept. Originally it was looking a little dormant, but after it acclimated it’s been putting out leaves non-stop! I love it!

[@EverythingPlants]

These are fast growers for sure. I've cut mine back a ton lol

[@cosmicnights]

I have this in Australia and it’s called ‘Black Dragon’. Waiting for my first flowers!

[@EverythingPlants]

Good luck....they are beautiful!!!

[@SSaaNNddYY77]

Great tips! I didn't know they liked to be stressed out to bloom! No wonder I haven't had any blooms. 😮 😂 Thanks for the informative video, as always!

[@EverythingPlants]

Yes! I'm an under waterer so this works out great haha

[@karenb136]

I love Hoyas. Thanks for showing where to cut them and how you use perlite to propagate them. Very helpful. The purple bloom is so pretty. 💚🌱🌿🪴💚

[@EverythingPlants]

Thanks Karen!

[@tayh3645]

It's reassuring to see how well the single node cuttings do. I've been rehabbing a tiny Hoya linearis but i've been too scared to go any smaller than 2 nodes. They've been coming along, but 2x the propagation material is very tempting, lol

[@livingnatural3225]

This bloom is beautiful 😍 patiently waiting in mine to bloom

[@kimberlyskinner8177]

[@quel-lie8561]

Another excellent video😊. I agree with Hoyas being so easy to root. In fact, I have my Hoyas in LECA but when purchased from the store, I literally chopped off all the roots and stuck stems into LECA. Now my plants have rerooted and are thriving 😁! PS... How are your ZZ plants doing? Lots of new growth this past Jan/Feb 😅? Ooooh the joys of Canadians and our Tropical plants 🤣

[@EPVStarSea]

Thanks for all the tips & info on these plants! Yours are growing beautifully!

for the first time after almost a month of neglect in a south facing window, my hoya sunrise put out a long runner that has a peduncle. i'm so excited for it to be my first hoya to bloom. waiting for my retusa to catch up

See....the secret to hoyas is neglect! Once you ignore them, then the thrive! And hello neighbour!.....all the way from Regina. 👋

[@marilynchen5256]

I am watching your video from Taiwan.😄 Hoyas' are popular in hot tropical weather in Asia, we call the "lazy plants " , just leave it under the sun, water once a while, they grow😁

[@EverythingPlants]

Taiwan!!! Wow...that is amazing! I will now be calling my hoays lazy plants 🤣

[@stockinettestitch]

Flowers-Cool! Congratulations 🎉 The only Hoya I have is a Pubicalyx. Have had it for 2.5 years. It’s great but sometimes I leave it out in the sun - so…burned leaves. It’s a very full plant but doesn’t seem to grow much. I hope I get flowers soon.

[@EverythingPlants]

I hope you get flowers too! That is the ultimate hoya goal. Give them lots of sun, neglect them....and they do well 🤣

[@lauraringle]

I read pubicalyx are supposed to grow fast. I got mine two months ago, have had zero growth and its in leca, in an east window from sun up til 1:30 pm.

[@EverythingPlants]

If you potted it in leca, it may be adjusting to that new medium. It may take awhile....patience is key!

[@RH-jd3ft]

Hi Jeff,luv the color of your bloom! My only Hoya that blooms is my krinkle eight and I have to put it outside for the humidity.Thx for the tips! Greetings from Florida🐊

[@EverythingPlants]

What color are the flowers?

[@RH-jd3ft]

Light pink with darker pink in the middle. Smells like chocolate.

[@freebutterfly102]

I just purchased a Hoya Pubicaly X Splash, it looks similar to yours. As soon as I put it off the grow light, I was afraid to put it directly under it. It seems like the splash spots came as soon as I put it near the grow light 🍃🌿🙌🏼

[@EverythingPlants]

That is awesome!

[@EverythingPlants]

I was blown away when I saw it...

[@planttherapy1860]

Awwhhh, I wish mine would flower. I have a few now. I just got the purple Hawaiian. Two leaves...

[@christmassnow3465]

I often get stems with thin leaves just as you showed with the Hoya 'Chelsea'. It usually happens when the base of the stem rots. I cut above the rot area and try to propagated in a prop box with high humidity. However, it does not always work and sometimes it takes lots of time to root. I don't know why it takes so long inspite of removing the dead stem base and the high moisture.

[@danielac983]

Thanks for sharing can't wait until my pubycalyx flowers. Can you do a care/propagation video on hoya polyneura please.

Great video Jeff, the flower is amazing on your hoya. I always learn something new from you. I Appreciate all the hard work you put into these videos. The only Joya I have had flower is my 45-year-old Hoya carnosa . My other Hoyas are still young hoping for them to bloom someday

The potsii is my absolute favorite. Honestly, just leave it be....give it a bright spot. I have mine in an east window and it has grown a ton.

Love your channel. I have a couple of hoyas and I love them. I have 2 Pubicalyx and one flowers all the time the other one has yet to bloom. Is it good to cut the runners?

As I was watching/learning you brought up the prop box. Wondering if you had any suggestions on making one Thank you. You do. ❤️🌱❤️🌱 SUBSCRIBED

[@EverythingPlants]

Hello and welcome! I have many perlite prop box videos but here is one on how to set it up... kzbin.info/www/bejne/eH2ueX-ke8-ZZrM

[@beckythebealge]

I got myself a Macrophylla for my birthday in January. It did nothing until a month ago which I expected. It is now giving me new leves and the tendrils are also growing really well. i do need to water it once every 6-8 days because of it’s location in our really sunny and warm sunroom in Ottawa, Ontario. What I really need to know is how do I go about the treillis? Do I just put it in the pot and let the plant find it or do I need to train it by wrapping the tendrils around it?

[@EverythingPlants]

I made this video trying to tackle an unruly hoya. I wrap the tendrils around the wire and you can do the same with a trellis. kzbin.info/www/bejne/e3u3h61ti9yXhq8

[@purpledancerbmw5279]

Well I ordered two from Walmart to sit in pots outside that are covering a crack and it's sunny in that spot until late afternoon so you're saying I wasted my money, or perhaps I'll put a cactus there and put these on my stoop? Which is hot and sunny too. Ugh? SC

[@lauriebrown9714]

Happy I found your channel. Great info. How much light do you give your prop boxes?

[@EverythingPlants]

Thanks and welcome Laurie! Give them a bright spot but try not to get too much direct light or you'll get the green algae build up

Do. You put water in the perlite

[@EverythingPlants]

For the prop box...I keep the perlite wet but no standing water at the bottom of the container

[@shadesofidaho]

Gorgeous flower. I am just curious why you clip the runners off? I get new leaves on my runners. Are you just trying to keep the plant smaller?

[@EverythingPlants]

It would get too overgrown to the point where it reaches down onto our faces while sitting on the couch haha. It has been pulled down a few times spilling soil. My wife said to clip it or it will disappear 🤣

[@shadesofidaho]

@@EverythingPlants Yes I kind of figured that. I found 5 large hoop trellises , 99 cenrs each at thrift store, and have used three for my hoyas. My regular carnosa was doing the same to me. Reaching out and grabbing me and even growing up around and through open doorway into my kitchen. Now bothcan crawlaround the trellis hoop. I know your space is not right for hoops . am lucky to have lots of hanging spaces.

[@jeanwebber4046]

Where do you get purple or blue ones I just have pink

[@EverythingPlants]

Hey Jean. I got this from a local shop in Regina, Saskatchewan. I'm sure you'd be able to find the Hawaiian purple online somewhere as well. Are you in Canada?

[@joyaroozooolsen2800]

I have one. And it just goes crazy! But never flowered too. Is it ok if I snip off some of its long leafless tendrils/vines?

[@EverythingPlants]

I snipped them off before as they get out of control. Some people say to leave them on for the potential of future flower peduncles, but it's not going to harm the plant if that is your worry.

[@beatriscollins784]

How long does it take to a cutting to grow and flower?

[@EverythingPlants]

Depends on your conditions. Sometimes flowers can take years, but I stress mine out to get flowers.....bright spot and let the get pretty dry.
