I have a hoya carnosa that I inherited when my grandmother died in 1975. I repotted it then and it has been in the same pot ever since and has survived even through multiple moves. I have taken countless starts for family members and friends. I think I need to repot it now because it's not growing as well as it has in the past even though the plant still looks good. Thank you for the information.

I have a twelve year old Hoya that is planted in a six inch, self watering, ceramic pot and it blooms all year. It sits in an east facing window in a room that stays 70° all year, and I only water it about every three to four months. They truly are no maintenance and virtually indestructible.

I grew one of these hoyas. We had a heavy hook screwed into the ceiling joist for the plant to hang on. The plant became so heavy it pulled the hook out of the ceiling joist one night, we got up to see the plant lying on the carpet in the living room.

Thank you for yet another great video, Byron. I have a Hoya australis, that I have had for 20 years. I have had no pests on it at all, and the fragrance of the flowers are intoxicating. It reminds me of Magnolias :D

What I found most beneficial about this video is showing the growth habit of hoya (vining up or shrub-like). Also showing what a mature specimen looks like also helps the plant-owner know how to treat and grow their hoya in the home. Now that I've see this, I will be planting my Variegated Hoya Kerii outdoors, at the base of my conifer trees. I think they'll make a remarkable statement in the garden when they drape a curtain of their heart-shaped, variegated leaves across the scape. I live in Los Angeles, far from hoya's native range, I'm curious to see what, if any, pollinators partake in the flowers. Anyone else allowing hoya to grow outdoors?

You can stake them and tie the vines to the stake to help contain them. We often grow them in hanging baskets and take the vining leads and wrap them around the pot. This will keep them in in one spot for a while.

Back in the 70s, I had an old friend who had a hoya that the fragrance was so sweet and strong I have never forgotten it and have wanted to get one recently. I don't know the name of it though. It is a very strong sweet fragrance and the leaves, if memory serves me, were a thick sorta bent shape. That was a long time ago so I don't recall exactly the leaf shape but that fragrance has never left my memory. Does anyone have a guess as to which one that was?

We generally suggest the use of a fertilizer which is below a 15-15-15. As hoyas are such slow growers, they don't really need much fertilizing.

I never heard of a Hoya before, but I thought it was very unusual. The plant has really grown. I keep getting more and more new branches and leaves. My question to you is, why doesn't it blume? Any suggestions would be great. Thank you! Gerry 😁

It looks like the NPK value on that fertilizer is 12-4-8. This fertilizer has a lot of nitrogen in it which is great for growing green leafy growth, however, with that middle number being so low, you'll probably never see any blooms on the plant. Try swapping to a blooming fertilizer like a 7-9-5 NPK instead. If you are unable to find a 7-9-5 fertilizer, any blooming fertilizer with an NPK value below 15-15-15 with the middle number being the highest of the three, but still below 15 would be a great option!

My blessed mother gave me her Hoya over 15 years ago. It has always been so healthy. However, my mother died in my arms a few years ago. Now, my Hoya is dying. The leaves and the stem/vine are all drying up. What can I do? I have it in a Southwest facing window. I live in Canada. This is the first summer it has not flowered. However, most of the vine and the leaves have all dried up and the vine part snaps like a dried up twig. Could somebody please help me. Thank you so much it’s breaking my heart.

LogeesPlants Hi, I just did what you asked me to do and unfortunately no, the stem is dry and breaks up into little wheat coloured flowers. I know you asked me to do that because if there is green there it indicates that the plan to still alive. I am an avid gardener and had to take botany in University.Most of my Hoya 3/4 of it is all dead. I have only one stem that is kind of green. Just wondering if I should try and root it. What are your thoughts? I am so sad. Thank you. Susan

Check and see if the roots are healthy if it's not growing during the summer. Flowering on hoyas is related to the growth it makes in the summer and the temperature it is grown at during the winter. Different species have different needs. First though you need to get the plant growing.
