I too lost a Hoya compacta to mealy bugs. I now have a small green and variegated. Mealy are terribly on Hoya compactas! I love watching tours and genus videos. Those are prob my favorite 🤭

Good to know!! Thank you 😁 I am definitely happy I waited until I found one with this kind of variegation! But that seller had soooo many to choose from with like all white or all pink strands. Made it hard to choose!

I have had all three. Variegated, regular and Mauna Loa. I had a cutting of the Mauna Loa and I paid 30 dollars for it and it was about 12”. Life happened and I no longer have my original compactas. I now have the regular one and a cuttings of the outer variegated and it has freaking mealies! Ugh !! I’m trying to get rid of them before I pot the cuttings. Your compacta is gorgeous! I have found the Mauna Loa for 300 but I can’t justify that purchase. Lol

Omg I’m jealous of your Mauna Loa! Totally get that, life can get in the way sometimes and plants take a back seat. I’m sorry about the mealies! Definitely routine cleanings with alcohol. Those are so tricky to clean though, so best of luck I hope you can save it! 🙏🏻💚 Thank you and I’m right there with you 😂😅 If I find a deal I’ll be sure to spread the word

If you get mealy bugs on plants with hard to reach crevices, thoroughly rinse the plant with a full force shower, then spray the soil and leaves in 70% alcohol. It works every time.

I should have tried blasting it with water! I did do a strong alcohol drench though. But it was crazy literally the next day it would be covered again. It was SO infested.

USPS/Fed Ex/UPS just don't know how to deliver plants. I just had a box delivered today with 12 plants inside that was posted this side up plants and they still managed to tip it upside down. My mouth was open the whole time you were unpacking your hoya. It is absolutely beautiful.
