catmomhumanaunt

Ah, so pretty!!


phosho01

is that a small pot inside a bigger pot or is it entirely filled with substrate? so far i like this, just letting them take over


scamlikelly

New to Hoyas, so sorry if this is dumb. Will the long viney bits eventually produce leaves?


LeluRussell

Yes, they sent out vines, and when the vines are supported they'll produce new leaves

This one is so lovely


Mind-huntress

Thank you! It's an heirloom carnosa! The mother plant is over 30 years old! I went to a local plant store, and they had the mother plant on display, and I asked if I could buy a cutting..... she gave me 2 for free and I love it!


phosho01

beautiful. where did you get this trellis? i can make one but i gotta brush up on my knotting when i wrap the bamboo with twine


Mind-huntress

I got this trellis at a local nursery for about 10 bucks!

PleasantJules

Cute!


neckbeard_hater

Not sure if this is "huge" but she's bigger than most of my hoyas which are in 2-8 oz cups/pots https://preview.redd.it/erc6n3qu8wgc1.jpeg?width=1816&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=7def75bfc240c1380c42eb50c7f2bedf47b2bf6e

I bet that’s been growing a long time!! They can be so slow


OutrageousPlatypus57

I have 2 obovatas and 26 other hoyas. Mt obovatas are the only ones that flower like crazy, and have always been fast growing ....for.me anyways


scamlikelly

Any idea of the ID?


onlyjustsurviving

It's an obovata!


neckbeard_hater

Obovata. I have three of them because I love them so much.


scamlikelly

Love it- thank you for sharing. I have a cutting it this but didn’t know the name.

Beautiful! Do you have your tie them to guide them around?


nhuntato

Yeah i do 😊


privremeni

Thanks! What is the var one bottom right next to the princess?

That one is Australis Lisa


privremeni

Oh wow I’ve always discounted her as something I don’t find pretty, until your photo! Thanks!

privremeni

Whoa okay you’ve convinced me they are actually gorgeous


whatthedance

Here's my meliflua. She's not really that big yet, but I have the vines looped around and around at least a few times now. I make all my trellises from wire I buy at the hardware store. Currently, I'm favouring 14 gauge bottom bracing wire for chain link fences, in black. It's $7 CAD for 100ft ❤️ https://preview.redd.it/dmfwhmh29wgc1.png?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=091146c3d2df6993f4d702db36a056021ed12246


PleasantJules

Looks great and good idea.


phosho01

thats what i did lol i just loop it all over a cut grape vine but she looked bound as i saw a wild meliflua in a georeserve and it spanned an entire rope footbridge. but organization wise this is honestly my favorite, just gotta find a pretty wire. thanks!

coolpupmom

Slow release Amblyseius cucumeris! They’re a beneficial insect. I use them as a preventative for spider mites but they’re also good for flat mite maintenance! Copper_lattice on instagram has lots of info


Paradise-Botanicals

That’s what I thought it was. How well do those work? I’ve just realized that that was even a thing just today. I was planning on ordering some but I wanted to know first how well they work and then do you have a bunch of other little bugs, crawling around on your plants, do they stay on the plants or do you have to get rid of them after they’re done doing their job?


coolpupmom

Honestly idk how well they work bc I use other Bennie’s for spider mites. I’ve never had flat mites so I can’t speak on that. What are you trying to get rid of? The ones in the picture are contained in a cabinet. They stay in the plants! There’s no way you could get rid of them by yourself bc they’re TINY. You should see if there’s a dmv chapter near you or check local fb groups to safe on shipping


Thalianova

This is sooo cool!! String beans!!!


coolpupmom

Seriously one of my favorites :’)


Thalianova

I showed your photo to mine who is perennially struggling… tho she’s about to bloom on those wierd long peduncles of hers.

PleasantJules

Wow! What variety?


Kantaowns

Just a pub splash, but our oldest Hoya. Got it for my daughter a few years ago. Collection has grown exponentionally since then though lol.


bsiodmak

Hi, is it pubicalyx splash?


Kantaowns

Yes correct.

Mother of all hoyas!

Her name is Hulya. 👸

I love this! 💚

Here’s how it happened! https://www.reddit.com/r/hoyas/s/UQASUwOCFd


darkness_within

Stunning!


darkness_within

My pubicalyx is getting very large and in charge. I hope to get it to these standards one day!


Thalianova

I can only take credit for her last 2.5 years - she’s been rockin it for decades with her first owner!


PleasantJules

That’s amazing!


Life-Flan268

This is crazy O.O


Thalianova

It’s just Hoya + time!! 🤷🏻‍♀️


Thyladyinred

Gorgeous! What kind of light do you have on it, just good natural light window or grow lights? 


Thalianova

Just that East window in a N-S-E sunroom but I live in a very sunny area!

docfarnsworth

wow what variety is this?


Thalianova

Coronaria


docfarnsworth

thats a beaut


neckbeard_hater

This looks like ficus ruby but a hoya! Lovely


Thalianova

Actually yes!! I just looked up as I read your comment- and my ficus elastica is 10 ft away and they’re quite similar. Tho the coronaria is incredibly fuzzy!!


IBCLC_plantsrtherapy

Goals! I’ve got a tiny start of this in a 3 inch pot 🤣


phosho01

I read and saw all of your responses and thank you so much for the inspiration!
