5 Unusual Hoyas

[@tabbycatmeows]

The way Nick looks at his plants shows his passion and I’m here for it!

[@cherylanne6549]

Earlier this week, Crazy Plant Guy said that no one ever talked about pepperomias. I quickly reminded him that you love pepperomias and talk about them all the time! Even during a video about Hoyas!

[@villainlouwho8464]

Peperomias just don’t do it for me like Hoyas.

[@plantwithroos]

ViLinh Lu same!!

[@cloudberries]

peperomias are so underrated. i have more kinds of them than any other plant variety. so easy to care for too!

[@katrinagayle3773]

always love Nick's videos because of the variety of plants he owns :) he really shines the spotlight on underrated plants that are just as beautiful as the common ones on the market ♡

[@HelloJungleRoom]

That last Hoya really DOES look like the incana 😱 so cool! Loved the hoyas you highlighted!

[@karafoote7526]

Love hoyas, and love the small white and yellow pots you showed!

[@RoseR7997]

Nick I so enjoy watching what you have to say and show us. Your vibe is always fun.

[@desertplantsofavalon]

I really LOVE Hoya's :-D and these are so beautiful and unusual :-D thanks so much for sharing Nick XXXX

[@vkklynn88]

I just found you a couple days ago and I have been binge watching your videos ever since 🤣

[@RainyDayWolf]

I am not really into hoyas but I love watching people talking and loving them XD

[@michaelalvarez2358]

I really like H. Cumingiana. It’s quite common here in the Philippines 🇵🇭 and very cheap for less than a dollar. The flowers are very fragrant during night time. Good choice Nick!

[@angelparras3161]

I should be getting ready for work. But im not, im feeding my 2 month old puppy looking at hoyas i wish i had. 😂

[@29jgirl92]

Please tell your puppy I say hi!!

[@chippy727]

Great video! I’m so obsessed with Hoyas right now!

[@suhyeonandflowers.2419]

Little Hoya~ So pretty and lovely. 👏🏻🌸🥰💕💕

[@claudinejonas4117]

Hello ! I’m very jealous of all those windows in your apartment ! I only get one hour of some sunlight , but I enjoy watching your videos , very educational & fun💕💕

[@sc3pt1c4L]

You "traded a friend for a plant"? Wow, he really likes his plants, or doesn't appreciate his friends!

[@GardenArcX]

what a thought man ha ha ha

[@agabrielamartin]

sc3pt1c4L hahahaha i was just about to write that!

[@preciousmoments2019]

I'd trade my best friend of like 20 years for a pink princess philodendron unrooted cutting. Today. she would understand

[@louiseb5702]

Always enjoy your videos Nick.

[@The_Black_Truth]

Looking Forward To My Iris Maries Looking Like Yours...What A Trailing Green Beauty!!!

[@martinanemcokova917]

I love hoyas! I have 45. My favourite leaves are green macrophylla, fitchii, globulosa, nong nooch (finlaysonii fam), caudata and super fuzzy thomsonii :) fortunately, the price craze for hoyas hasn’t reached Europe and we can get any cutting for 8-10 dollars.

[@NocturnalButterfly]

OMGEE The Iris Marie!!! 😍😍😍😍 Another one for the list, thanks for the show ‘n tell Nick!! Love your channel. I just scooped another Hoya Bella (reverse variegated) this morning and I hear you say mealybugs! AAAAH!!! 😂 I will definitely keep an eye out for them, thank you!! Have a fabulous weekend luv! 💋💖🦋

[@LoisyAbigail]

If you like the felt leaved hoyas, you might like the H. madulidii or the H. ciliata. They're very similar to each other except the ciliata has bigger, darker flowers. As a Filipino plantita (plant-auntie in our slang), I feel so fortunate to both be a Hoya lover and be living in a place where so many hoyas are easily accessible.

[@beknight9399]

Hi Nick, would suggest to increase the humidity for your Hoya Fitchii. This works well on all my Hoyas that "do nothing for me" for several month. 💚💚💚

[@mathilda6763]

Increasing the humidity worked wonders on my thomsonii, papaschonii and krohniana.

[@plantwithroos]

Oh cool that's good to know!

[@pattymarshall8029]

Love, love, love hoyas! All are great, plain green or not!

[@土大-e5c]

You are more and more dramatic, but I love it!

[@TheLeafyGeek]

Some words of encouragement (I hope) about your fitchii! Mine sat through a whole year... a full growing season (plus a MN winter)... doing absolutely nothing. And then the second growing season in my care it really took off! I really think it’s just a slow starter.

[@brandonpollard8928]

I see a blue dot by your bubble I'm like "no way!" another new video he's spoiling us 😍😍

[@arnoldgenerao]

Nice video. I'm a fan from the philippines. After watching this, might as well add more hoyas in my houseplants. I only have 2 at the moment, cumingiana and forgot the name of the other one. Looking forward to ur next video.

[@mathilda6763]

*Hoya Hanhiae* was a spur of the moment purchase on ebay. She was such a nice surprise when she arrived. I love the colour, the cute chubbier shape of the leaves and the slight veining. Also seems to be quite easy to care for. Really one of my favourites and if you find one you should get it everyone. Rather common but really cool because it is FUZZY(!!!!!!) is the *Thomsonii* . As long as he gets the right humidity he seems to be doing okay in my home too. Also common and rather easy but just too f*cking adorable to not consider is the *Hoya Mathilde* ...of course I /might/ be a little partial because of the name. I also recently got a *Loheri* and though I can't say much about it yet care-wise the leaf shape is really cute in my opinion. I generally like those narrow leaves in hoyas.

[@jarmstrong4539]

Great video! I’ve really fallen in love with Hoyas over the past few years. I think my favorites in my collection at the moment are my serpens and obovata. I would love it if you could do a video on how to make your Hoyas bloom! Thanks for the new suggestions and the cost consideration.

[@kim_bucha]

You mentioned that some Hoya would appreciate getting fried in a southern-facing window-could you do a video about plants (or even just Hoya) that would thrive in those conditions? I have predominantly S/W windows and a growing Hoya collection, wondering if any of them would do better with more light

[@plantwithroos]

Oh I love that idea, I have big south facing windows and it's been a trial and error of what can live there. Might make that video (sorry Nick, you also make it cos you know much more than me!!)

[@walle5667]

My Memoria loves direct light and lots of it. The Carnosas, Pubicalyx and Australis, too. Krohniana isn't complaining, either. I wouldn't put Wayetii into a South facing window, mine got burnt a bit. Lockii also not recommended.

[@donnabronner4837]

Love Hoyas. HATE the mealy bugs.

[@BohemienneLife]

I love Hoyas, but unique ones are so expensive for tiny plants. I still keep collecting some when I get lucky and find one online or randomly at a garden center. At least the small ones leave space to collect a lot. lol...addicts we are all plant addicts.

[@sheilacasper2030]

I have hopped onto the hoya bandwagon! I love them.

[@margaesperanza]

The cumigiana is so cheap in my country, and they're usually sold with like 3 tall stalks in a pot

[@xyz-pg3zd]

Which country?

[@Dwynfal]

My cummingiana has been such a good grower for me over the last year and it's looking great! No flowers yet but the foliage and growth habit is adorable. I have a Hoya kanyakumariana which is certainly an oddball as far as foliage goes. Fairly uncommon but it wasn't expensive (15$ or so). Slow grower but I don't mind, it just makes me smile because it's so weird 😊

[@irispresley3182]

I love hoyas, I am getting more, love your video. I have silver slash.

[@dawnhood3666]

Thanks for another awesome video!

[@IsyInhumanity]

Oh my god I finally found out what my hoya is called! I bought it about 4 or 5 years ago and it was called hoya lanceolata. But all I found when recently googling were pictures of hoya bella. Now I know it's a vaccinioides! I tried googling "hoya bella small leaves", but nothing came up. Thank you! I also have like 10 cuttings of it and it flowered for the first time this year.

[@bettyhoogendam3032]

Love watching you

[@bernadettelopez7225]

I just bought a Hoya Parasitica, a starter plant, my last buy for 2020 but when I received it from the mail and checked the root system, there is a cloth/mesh wrapped around the root ball and I actually dont see numerous roots, im not sure if I should remove the mesh right away. Please help😥

[@checkard90]

You had me at Hoya!!

[@carpediem.9]

If you enjoy fuzzy leafs Nick, you should get a Hoya thomsonii :)

[@NatassiaL83]

What peperomia is next to your hoya fitchii at 4:20 in the video. I’ve got a pep that’s similar but I can’t find a name for it

[@villainlouwho8464]

Peperomia Hope maybe? It’s hard to tell.

[@udon44]

Your videos give me life

[@ezriedash6633]

I have never clicked so fast!🙌🏻

[@MrsGamgee977]

I've had a hoya for 13 years and in all that time it has never bloomed. I heard or read somewhere that it doesn't like being disturbed or moved, and because I would either repot it or remove it from the shelf or fiddle with its vines when they would weigh down the little plastic trellis, it would refrain from booming, so I have pretty much given up on that. Also, in my experience with this one (don't know which one it is, probably carnosa) it does better in shade than in direct sunlight of my east facing flat. I've propagated it once unsuccessfully, and recently I cut out the branches that got broken and the leaves started yellowing, and the remaining vines are doing well, one is even actively growing. Anyway, cool story, bro.

[@sunshiny_botany]

You make the best videos =) Hope you have an awesome day.

[@caitlincampb]

Hoya wee Bella, I AM SCREAMING 😂

[@marielepps4169]

Beautiful! I love seeing all the varieties of Hoyas! I purchased one this summer and it was just labeled as hoya with no specific type. I wish I knew what kind it is. It's variegated and has a tiny bit of pink on it.

[@mairzeedotes5484]

There is a Facebook hoya ID page, but it is probably a Carnosa as they are the most common found. If the variegation is on the inside, it's a Krimson Princess, and if it's on the outside, it's a Krimson Queen.

[@candyyyybabeeee]

My fitchii took forever to do something too but once it started it wouldn’t stop 😅🤣

[@villainlouwho8464]

I’m dying for a $$$ Hoya Lisa $$$

[@bettylazaro6933]

I want all those. My Hoya kerri is loosing the heart shape, is that normal? Love your videos and all the information. Thank you!!😊

[@m.wright168]

I love my Hoya Curtsii and sherpedii !

[@uno1r]

I love your content you're an Inspiration

[@PardyN2]

Waaaaiiittttt, I thought your name was Mike. Kidding, ok I'll shush and continue watching 😝

[@amoijoy573]

Is that a Florida beauty behind Nick? I need to know more about that plant. I just purchased one and need a care video about it.

[@t1ffanyblue910]

He talked about it in his video recently about plants that look fake!

[@jeans3190]

@@t1ffanyblue910 I missed that video. Thank You.

[@GardeningkiDuniyaYT]

They are so beautiful and unique

[@sherryporsch9349]

Help Nick! My Commingiana was 4 in long an now 2ft!! In 3 months. Is it too much light? I want it bushy. 💚😃

[@simonsnowlock5937]

Beard looking Beautiful!

[@theplauntlife6453]

I'm a die hard hoya head. I'm just starting a collection since some are so pricey but I have 4 so far. ❤️

[@LiMaking]

Where do you get those pots??

[@dan_ta_lion]

My favorite hoya would be hoya carnosa 'wilbur graves' and hoya khroniana 'black leaves 😍

[@RandomUltimateBacon]

Me: this is awesome! Also me: h o y a

[@149Billy]

omg i love Hoyas, recent revelation really.

[@ES-vq1de]

Does your shop carry these? I have the hardest time finding unique hoyas online.

[@laurenswint1895]

My grandmother has a Hoya Carnosa thst has lived in water for yearssss. I’ve recently gotten in to plants and she gave me a cutting. Is it normal for Hoya Carnosa to live and thrive in water?

[@dianemcdaniel3233]

Does she fertilize it? I’d like to try growing one in water!!!

[@msfoliage]

I have 3 kinds of hoyas, my halconensis blooms twice, my pubicalyx blooms for the nth times & the one which is not blooming is my hoya australis. It's just vining all the way but never bloom, why is that so?

[@GardenArcX]

Enjoying from abroad broh !

[@SheenaHongMusic]

HAHA, no.1 way to get rid of pests: dont look at your plant. Nice video, thank you :)

[@janetmccalder5541]

Hoya my favs .. but fir some reason i hsve killed 2 hoya Kerrii variegated .. I just ordered 1 more & hope 3 times is a charm..

[@jongamali3398]

Anyone knows his background plant climbing on the wall?

[@villainlouwho8464]

rhaphidophora tetrasperma

[@jongamali3398]

ViLinh Lu you think its variegated or its just the lighting that makes it look variegated?

[@rozannmartin7235]

Try a cloche on your Hoya, it worked for mine.

[@ryandepauw]

I have a hoya carnosa “snowball” on the way from Florida! And a few small hoya carnosa compactas that are rooted from etsy...i wonder what the snowball’s latin name is?

[@MelissaWalker82]

I’m fairly sure it’s just a carnosa and the snowball is kind of a commercial or marketing name. So it’s official name is Hoya Carnosa. :)

[@PopleBackyardFarm]

I want some Hoyas!

[@nikki7705]

Do you have a Hoya compacta? Hindu rope.

[@kaegengovender8791]

Can you do a video of specifically your rare and expensive plants

[@VickyHafler]

I’m sitting here waiting for the mail to be delivered with my Hoya Obotvata! I’m not very familiar with Hoya.

[@villainlouwho8464]

I just got my first Obovata yesterday! Been looking forever for one and finally found it in person.

[@viktoriabackeus7610]

#TeamHoyasareboring but I have a Hoya carnosa for now, but looking for a new home for it.

[@martyna2482]

Your hoya vaccinioides looks a lot like a hoya chinghungensis. Maybe it's just a way that you've shot the video, but the leaves of your plant look a bit more rounded than in h. vaccinioides ;)

[@elizabethfigueroa1281]

I wanna get my hands on a Hoya but we don’t really have many varieties here in Perú

[@alexandertuin6831]

Handsome Guy

[@EleanorSadie]

YOUR POTS 🤩😍

[@TheNIJUAL]

The first one looks like a zz plant

[@martynaaaaaaajl]

logee's since then has hoya cumingiana listed for $40 :( etsys even worse

[@tinamarieussery3063]

I found a bitty hota hindu rope for 8 but thats out of my budget this time of month so the friend i was showing hoyas to said he would give me the 8 but i cant add to my ssi card so i told him hed have to do it off his. So we will see if o get it. I weed for him since at 72 he cant get down to do it. At 65 i refuse to give up i may have to plop down and put my butt up frist then crawl up my legs to get up but i make it still

[@honeytranful]

Whaat????

Hello l have hoya from papua indonesian, does anyone want it?

[@user-pr6uz6wk4t]

CAN I GET A HOYAAAAAAAAAAAAA

[@thewittyusername]

I love how Nick's version of "unusual" and different plants is that they look kind of boring 😅

[@kelseyg2161]

I think the Cuminingia flowers smell awful - I got rid of that plant years ago. Made me wonder if the smell inspired the species name :(

[@musicalmarion]

I'm sorry to say I didn't like any of them... sorry sorry...and.. sorry again

[@MrSreior]

No shade to you cause I love your videos, but I am just wondering... am I the only ome who hates hoyas?

[@dan_ta_lion]

My favorite hoya would be hoya carnosa 'wilbur graves' and hoya khroniana 'black leaves 😍
