Do you have fleeting Hoya love interests like myself? What's your Hoya of the moment?

Thank you for watching the new content. 😄 I'm glad you're enjoying it.

Hi Betsy 💫 So happy you are uploading again. I’ve missed your unique and quirky personality. It’s absolutely magnificent. Can’t wait for another video. Wishing you a wonderful week ahead. 🙏🏻💫

Wormy skit was hilarious! I swear cats have a way of knowing the most convenient times to be "extra special" lol. So happy to enjoy watching your videos again. ❤

Would love to see what you currently think are the top ugliest plants (doesn't have to be Hoyas but could be). I think that would be a fun video. Glad to see you back. You always make me laugh.

OMG! Love the talking cat! 😂😂That was funny. I thoroughly enjoyed all the humor sprinkled in with your content. Keep this content coming!

Your cat act was hilarious, your Hoyas are beautiful!

I haven’t seen your content pop up on my page for a while, I’m so happy to see you’re doing well!

At the moment, my favorite is Hoya caudata. It has been blooming constantly since January with multiple blooms. Love the fuzzy flowers.

Worm’s skit had me bustin’ up!!!😹🌿😻

I would be interested to see a top 5 least favorite/ugliest hoyas. I have a few of those too and I an questioning 'why do I still keep them'...

So so happy to see you pop up again. Great to see you and talk about Hoyas!!

Hi Betsy! I am so happy to see you ❤️ I used to watch you long ago. You look fabulous, and your hoyas are beautiful as always. That elliptica is awesome.

lovely to see you back after a long time

I am right and a lot of people are wrong is my daily mantra.

I may know nothing, but I'm not wrong.

I just found you from looking up Hoya australis Lisa. You're hilariously animated and I would love it if you did a bloopers reel 🤣🤣🤣

Also, Hoyas with the prettiest blooms

Love your energy and your vids. I don't have many hoyas and watching this video is adding to my list. Thanks...I think. LOL

Yes, do a 5 least favorite Hoya video. 😊 Thanks for the video.

Top 5 vids could be, small leaved, big leaved, trailing, climbing, easy bloomers etc. Always glad to see you put up something new 🥰 great to have you back 👍🏻❤️

Thanks for the kind feedback!

Okay! This video made me so excited for hoyas all over again! Haven't bough a new hoya basically since 2022, and this is t e m p t i n g me! I have a soft spot for hoya obovata especially a super splashy one! Love a good callistophylla, except in my local plant shop it was going for like $150 which is just wild to me; it's cute, but not break-my-wallet-and-spit-in-my-eye cute. And hoya bella because man that thing will not stop blooming! Also so happy too see you and the worm again

With splashy Hoya like your pubicalyx, I will list the plant or cuttings as H. Pubicalyx (shows splash when under high light) or whatever it does and the conditions needed. I agree with you that it shouldn’t be named as ‘Splash’ if it isn’t so unless conditions provided make it so

Bring back a Miro collab please. You two together are hoya magic!! 🪄

Entertaining and informative! Thanks!

Hey Betsy! Hope you are well today. Idea for video: some thoughts about hand pollination and your experience. I remember that you once said you are trying to hand pollinate using a microscope, but unsuccessfully. As there is still something to learn from failures, maybe it would be interesting for viewers. For me at least it would be very interesting :D

So good to see you upload! My current favorite is a big, crusty clemensiorum who is loving life.

Lovely video Betsy!

I am sooooo happy you are back on KZread. I missed seeing your rosy personality.

My favourite Hoyas of the moment are pubicalyx black dragon because her blooms are just beautiful and my other one is princess ❤

I am always so happy to wake up to a video from you. Always makes my day to see you and Miro. I have a strange strappy leaf hybrid Hoya that has just gone nuts lately and is the most unique Hoya I have that has just captured my heart. My elliptical is sitting on my table right now needing attention again. I am always having root issues with her.

Thanks so much for joining me this morning! Hoya elliptica is a diva, let's be honest. 😼

Loooove your content! Keep it up 😊 video idea for you and/or Miro, could you guys please measure the light your hoyas get 🙏🙏🙏 it helps so much when trying to recreate growing conditions, i know im on a different continent so there’s other factors that come into play but I’ve been learning about light recently and that would just be sooooo helpful 🤞🙏❤

Good to see u back x

So happy to see you Betsy! 🎉

Thanks SO MUCH for uploading again!!! We've missed you!

THANK YOU!!!!! For addressing the "red leaves" cause I can't play with that anymore! Red leaves 🤦🏻‍♀️

I am glad you are back ❤

So good to see you- have missed your ramblings (and I 100% agree about the ‘prehistoric’ moniker) !! I also have a very splashy H. pubicalyx (sold as ‘silver splash’) and it is really really lovely. Right now my favorite is an ‘old’ standard: my H macrophylla outer variegated is just so gorgeous! HUGE leaves, the size of my full hand, and I just love love love it. Would really love to see flowers on it, but I must wait. At least my H amicabilis gives me flowering joy on a regular basis and is a bright light in my collection right now.

If you like huge leaves you might like Seeds 002 and glabra if you don't have it yet. 😄

Omg you’re back !!!!!!!

So nice to see you back on KZread.

My current favorites are the ones I have in bloom like multifleura, bertonii, lacunosa, etc, or getting ready to bloom especially if it has never bloomed before for me. I would love it if my eliptical would bloom, but no peduncles yet.

Prehistoric is the ONLY way I've heard thick or raised veiny hoyas described. Fern is exactly what I picture when I think of prehistoric. Thank you for the PSA. Everyone genuinely needed it 🙏😌

They’re just like your students of the month lol. Long time lurker here but just had to say, so happy for the new videos! Missed your content.

Just lovely my dear ❤

Your ellpitica is beautiful! The leaves look thicker than all the ones I've had. I've had 2 or 3 and not one of them made it. That's too bad because it'sone of my favourite leaf pattern. My daughter has a cat almost identical to yours and it poops a LOT! Haha! Must be the breed!!!

First time I’ve found you and I love you already!

I have many meredithii and none of them ever grow for me. 😂

It's great seeing you sharing hoyas again! My clemensiorum bloomed for me on two peduncles in the past weeks - I was so proud - and is now pushing them out again on the same spurs. They are juicy, fyi. I had recently put it under new lights in a new cabinet, and I began to see gorgeous sunstressing on one particularly photogenic-perfect-specimen of a leaf. And then, those gorgeous red swaths became paper thin, and orange, and then yellow, and soon will be ugly burn scars. All in aperiod of about 6 weeks. I've reduced the lighting in that cabinet by 50%; probably a good move since the mindorensis was turning red, the elliptica was making new leaves the color of raspberry jam., and the finalysonii 'big leaf' was making new leaves which were very, very small. Lessons are always being learned!

Hm, least favorite hoyas? or most annoying. Yay, glad that you are still making plant videos!

I got the Begonia oldemor just now in Sweden. Wanted it since you showed yours in a tour years ago. Plus the Luxuriance that I had before but It froze to much.

Good evening Lady B.

More uploads ❤❤❤ please

My Retusa is going crazy, my pubacalyx splash is stunning, but I keep overwatering my compactas 😢 First time watcher, you’ve got some character girl 😂 It’s good to know which are easier to care for or not thanks!

You’re my favorite 😂

what color do other pubicalyx splash stress as? i bought mine as pubicalyx splash but when it grew in a window the splash went pink as well and i’ve noticed it happens w other hoyas too but i know there’s pubicalyx pink silver i’m just not convinced it’s truly different than the splash
