I purchased H. gracilis from the Groovy Plants Ranch in early April 2022. They no longer offer Hoyas for sale. I had it under the GE Seeds & Greens grow light until late fall when I moved it to the grow tent. It did so-so in the grow tent so I moved it back up […]
Hoya curtisii is another plant I purchased from Hirt’s Gardens in April, 2022. I ordered two small plants and both were clipped closed to the potting mix. I potted them together in a small grow pot with regular potting mix. I keep them in the grow tent closer to the grow light with no shade. […]
A New Hoya from Land of Alice – Hoya Deykeae My fourth Hoya haul of 2023 isn’t much of a haul at all but just a single plant. What a wonderful plant it is! This one is Hoya deykeae purchased from Land of Alice for the fantastic price of $55. All the other deykeaes I’ve […]
I purchased two small H. australis ‘Lisa’ plants from Hirt’s Gardens in late March 2022. Each 2″ pot had two small vines. Two vines from one pot keep pushing out the variegated ‘Lisa’ leaves. The two vines in the other pot reverted back to australis with no variegation. I do see some effort to push […]
New plants from The Planted Veteran on Etsy Another fantastic day for me with more new plants arriving in the mail. This time I ordered from The Planted Veteran on Etsy. I’ve wanted to order from this seller for a while now. There are so many lovely little plants on The Planted Veteran site. I […]
New plants from Steve’s Leaves! I love Steve’s Leaves! I can always count on nice healthy plants from Steve’s Leaves. Today’s Hoya haul was no exception. The box arrived in great shape and everything inside was packaged nicely. They wrap the Hoyas in paper but it all fit nicely in the box without scrunching them […]
I purchased H. bella from Land of Alice about September 2022. I had this in the grow tent over winter and it did so-so. It grew some leaves. It lost some leaves. In February I pulled it out of the tent and put it on a shelf in front of the window. I gave it […]
I purchased H. cumingiana October, 2022, from Steve’s Leaves and this is a vigorous grower. It arrived as a small plant with five rooted cuttings. It grew well in the grow tent as long as it had plenty of light. When I moved it down farther to give it more room to grow up it […]
I purchased H. cutis-porcelana from Steve’s Leaves in September, 2022. This one grew longer vines and a few new leaves in the grow tent but new leaves quickly yellowed and fell off. I find this one to be a little persnickety about watering. Too much or too little and the leaves fall off. I have […]
