I read in Dale Kloppenberg’s book ‘A World of Hoyas’ that some clones of H. cumingiana are more vigorous than others. I don’t remember him writing that about any other Hoya in the book. This makes your amazing plant and my tiny plant that refuses to grow - even in Hawaii - make sense! If you ever take cuttings, I would love to be on the list. I need a good clone like yours! I have a big yard and could grow this beauty outdoors! Thanks for your website and videos. I find them so helpful. Hannah

Wow wow wow!! I also have this species for about a year now. I have to say it doesn't grow so fast but that is maybe because I changed it's environment quite often (from house to greenhouse etc.). I was on the brink of giving it away but now I see your video of it, i will give it another chance en continu keeping it in my window sill.

Hi Wendy, I have to say that Hoya cumingiana does not grow nearly as well for me in my current location as it did back in the day when I shot that video. There was something special about those conditions that I have not been able to duplicate. That being said, don't give up on your plant, it will reward you eventually if you stick with it!

Hi Doug, I had one other question, do Hoyas have a certain season they bloom in or certain conditions that induce bloom (like cold, or light duration?)? Or does it very between each cultivar? While we're at it, are they any Hoyas that bloom most of the year? Thank you for all your amazing videos, I had no idea that there were so many absolutely stunning Hoyas out there! They are like the vining version of orchids it seems like. In the unlikely case you're running out of ideas for Hoya videos...I'd love to see a video on your top bloomers, the top favorite fragrant hoyas, your favorite foliage hoyas and favorite hoyas for certain situations, like a north window, or an east window.

Good question! It depends on the Hoya. There are some Hoyas that will bloom most of the year given the conditions that they prefer. There are others that only flower with increasing day length of spring and early summer, and others still that will only flower with the decreasing day length in the fall. Hoya sp. DS 70, H. lacunosa, and H. lobbii are examples of Hoyas that will flower year around. Examples Hoyas that bloom in the spring/summer would be H. serpens, H. bella, H. chinghungensis, H. carnosa. Hoyas that flower in the fall only would by H. magnifica, H. calycina, H. australis. H. wightii, and H. stoneana. Also grow lights can really mess things up. You can change some of those blooming times with grow lights. Thanks for your suggestions for new videos. There are some good ones there! Doug

Hi Doug, few months ago I bought a baby Hoya cumingiana. Unfortunately it has only one stem, but is growing very fast (it's summer here in Australia) and is approximately 50cm at the moment. Do the stems grow new stems? If not can I cut the current stem in several pieces and grow more stems from the cuttings? Any recommendations on how to do it? Thanks for your help :)
@DougChamberlainVTHoyas

Hi Yann, Hoya cumingiana is one of the easiest growing most forgiving of Hoyas. If the humidity is high there I would cut off your one stem at the 25cm mark; take the cutting and divide it in half remove the first couple of leaves and insert the two stems into the pot. They should root very quickly and then you will have a much fuller plant. Sometimes where the cut is made will form two new growing points. In no time you will have a much larger plant. Good luck! Doug

I think it depends on the conditions under which it is grown. At my previous house, it grew so quickly that it was hard to keep under control. I grew at least 3 specimens that got absolutely huge. I got rid of them after they got too big to handle. At my current home, it grows much more slowly. In 3 years at my old home, I could get a plant that was over 5 feet tall.

Beautiful! Here in Australia Cumingiana seems to be sold under two names - Cumingiana and Cumingiana f. Santos. I am guessing Cumingiana is the naturally occuring form originating from the Philippines and that "Santos" is a cultivar that originated from the Santos region but I can't find any information anywhere on this. Wondering if you would know the answer? Love your website!

Thank you Vanessa! I'm afraid that I am in complete ignorance of Hoya cumingiana f. Santos. I have never heard of it, but it may be some kind of cultivar named after a place or person. It apparently produces seedpods fairly easily as my plant currently has two large pods with no help from me, and was pollinated in the house with no insects except maybe a few clothing moths flying around. Have a great day in Australia!

Greetings Elsie, Hoya cumingiana grows pretty rapidly. To get a bushier plant start out with 3-5 cuttings in the pot and it will just naturally get more bushy. Also a single vine wrapped around a trellis will look like busy vine and will split off after awhile with more growth points.

Hoya cumingiana is tolerant of many different light levels. If it is grown in strong light, the leaves will be much smaller than if grown in more shade. If I had to pick a window for it, I would go with and eastern window, followed by a western window. I have one in a southern window at work, but the leaves next to the glass do get a bit burned. It will even do OK in a north window, but will probably not flower.
