In my experience this plant grows when the temperature is above 20 celcius. I grow this hoya in an aroïd mix in a plastic pot (in fact I recycled a plastic milk bottle into a pot). My plant comes from a one leaf cutting that grew into a full plant, it flowers very early in it's development. In fact the peduncle appears with the first set of new leaves. Very surprisingly I manage to grow a full plant from a single leaf cutting twice in a row. Everything was really easier after I understood that keeping the plant above 20°celcius is the key to have it grow (at least for me). The first time the cutting did nothing during 3 years, the second time it grew after less than a year! Because it's a very succulent hoya I water it only when the soil is dry. Sometimes I forget and let it in a dry soil during more than a week. It slows down the growth but that's all. I killed my first plant because of over watering so I definitely take care of it as if it was a succulent. As many hoyas It tends to grow a long naked stem on which the leaf appears later so sometime the plant is not so beautiful 🙂 To workaround that I propagated the plant during summer (I'm in France) and put 1 propagation with the mother plant. During summer my 3 cutting rooted in one week. I provide the maximum of light that I can. I'm at the north of Paris and here it takes direct light without any problem. Regarding pest , meally bugs sometimes but nothing to difficult to handle.

I got last year that one leaf hoya kerii in hopes that it would grow from it (because in my country we don’t get the fully established plant 😑) and just few days ago I noticed a small stem poking out of the soil 😍 I guess I got lucky 🤘🏼🤣 Amazing video btw! Always very helpful 🤍

I had one of those 1 leaf type that I bought after Valentine’s Day, at that time i didn’t know that it was a ‘dud’ Lol. I had it for 5-6 years and it did nothing,so one day I had enough,took it out of the pot to bin it,than I noticed it had a branch coming of it just bellow the surface! It grew into a large plant 😍 but I know a lot of the one leaf ones don’t grow into a plant! So happy for you! And me,😂🪴

I love Kerri hoyas yours look so cute and lush ❤ Hoyas are so satisfying to see them grow from small leaf cuttings to big plants ❤

This Hoya is so cute! I have the green one. It is a slower grower for me than my other more succulent Hoya like pachyclada or obovata. I do not find most Hoya to be slow in fact pretty close to as fast as pothos. I think foliar feeding, humidity and dappled direct light helps. I just put my regular liquid fertilizer in a spray bottle and mist it. Hoya kerii does not forgive overwatering and seems to prefer neglect. Hard for my over fussing plant parent style! If I get mealies I use systemic but rarely. I get a lot of wild lace wing eggs from my patio which is nice part of being in a sub tropical climate. In my experience it handles cooler temps just fine but goes dormant. The variegated ones are more common than the green around me. I would love to get the super silver full splash variety some day. Thank you for sharing everyone!

Hey! I love these reviews you're making, after all this time you got them. It's really cool seeing how they grew and matured, keep it up!

I love Hoya Kerri, I have 4 types inner, outer, splash and green. Your Kerri is so cute, I like how white they are. In Auckland NZ it’s still very expensive and you don’t see them often, I bought mine as 2 leaf cutting and gave me 3 leaves in 9 months. Like you said slow.😅Thank you for your videos I really enjoy them and very informative.

This guy definitely needs more likes ❤❤❤

Still no vining Kerrii in Michigan. Lots of the leaf cuttings of which I was fortunate to get one with more of a node and it has vined.

Thank you very much for all the time and effort you put into keeping us informed on your plant journey! I am in Wisconsin, USA so all my tropical plants are indoors 24/7. I'm curious if you have using Keiki Paste on the tiny nodes of the long sparse vines that are only producing peduncles and small aerial roots? I have been having really good leaf growth, without going overboard on slathering the whole vine, of course. Just curious if I might just be lucky.

In Norway this one is almost impossible to get. I have albo and splash and as albo grows like crazy (5 leafs in 6 months) splash did not moved a thing in 1 year 🤣 finally i get my first leaf 😆🙈 do you have variegated compacta? Mine thrilled and growed like a charm to die in 1 week. Very strange.

Are you truly a Hoya collector if you’re not fighting mealy bugs 😂😭

awww thank you, i have heard the same from many people that theirs struggled too. generally I find more so than any of my other hoyas, it doesnt matter what medium they are in the like to fully dry out before watering and like you I give them loads of light, if that helps.

@@Houseplantygoodness Thank you for the tips, I appreciate them. I always look forward to your videos, I enjoy your content a lot. (Especially the hoya tips )

Very interesting. Thank you.

I was very lucky in that I bought a single leaf, had it for 2 years and was about to throw it out when I noticed there was a vine starting and now it’s getting huge. I love the variegated variety and will have to look for one in the USA.

Hey Memo (my apologies if I've spelt your name wrong). I'd be so grateful for some advice please. I bought a cutting (in a tiny nursery pot with 6 leaves, but I've just lost its oldest leaf🥺 hoping that's not a bad sign) nearly 2 months ago now. So happy as it was one off my wishlist. It's sitting in my SE facing windowsill I think (it gets sun from 11am-ish) but my kitchen is cold now (I live in the London, UK). I only recently realised that the cutting is growing out of what looks like a hard plug of bark (a few white roots have started to appear, peeping through the bottom of this bark- like structure). I really thought it was just hard soil that desperately needed aeration. My question is, should I leave it as is until spring and then repot, or do it now because I need to get rid of whatever it is growing out of? When it is time to repot what's its preferred substrate? Thanks in advance

I've had mine almost 6 months. I brought a bigger green one since I don't have patience. I keep it under a grow light in the living room. Recently, it has thrown 3 new vines. I staked two but the third isn't long enough to stake yet. No peduncles. I am thinking of moving it to a window to see if more light can help with peduncle development.

I wish I could upload a picture of my dads 9 year old one I got him as a leaf before I knew any of this. It is HUGE. This is an easy plant and surprisingly thirsty.

Ohhh wow yeah I bet its huge, but yeah very thirsty, especially the larger they get 💚🌿

How does propagating affect the vine? Will it branch out? I currently have a long vine going and am scared to cut it because I want to keep it as a vine.

Need some help from u! I got my variegated kerrii for more than a month and it grows so much! few new leaves poped out but one of it with black and soft edge… and it fell off too… just wondering what happened? was it overwatering?

Orchid myst does seem to be bloody expensive water and not really much else. The spray feed that I got from poundland was so so good and my orchids and hoya did really well with it. But not been able to find it. But I will be getting some liquid gold leaf and they can make foliage spray so gonna try that I was hunting for a kerrii for a while and did see them go for 80ish for the standard one it was an ok sized plant but some cuttings where 30 odd for 2 leaves. Did get one way cheaper. Only really see the single leaves about sadly Great video

Yeah I would agree kinda really expensive water. Ohhhhhh didn't realise you could get something like that in pound land 👀👀👀👀 but yeah I think you went with the right option 👏👏👏💚🌿

I’m in Canada. Single leaf come out on valentines. Only once have I seen a larger plant at a greenhouse. You can find it on Facebook marketplace once in a while from private sellers.

I got a hoya Kerrii six month ago and he just have a pédoncule. Now he has two balls that have grown directly under the leaf! I hope it will turn into a vine

Oh! Glad mine never bloomed! 😂 if it died I would not really care that much… it did teach me patience! It looks great on its loop but if it was not there I would not miss it! So strange how I feel about this one. I have both the marginally variegated and the single leaf green (what a rip off) !😣 never had mealy bugs but then I don’t particularly get mealy bugs… never got scales but… I recently saw thrips 😮 it does not seem to bother it very much since the leaves are like a shield but I am worried for the surrounding plants… this was the first “rare” Hoya (at least back then) that I purchased so yes it also has sentimental value to me… if the thrips did not find it I would still like it I guess but with those if I see it becoming a problem (I just ordered predatory mites) I will ditch it! Thank for those reviews! 😊

No I live in the USA Michigan I look a lot for this plant I think of ordering this plant

I love this plant. I have a single leaf that has some sentimental value (NOT Valentine’s Day 😂) and I don’t mind letting it be to see if it ever stems. I just water it along with my other Hoyas. The slow growth doesn’t bother me a bit with Hoyas- they’re good company in my meditation space & at our office. They’re a lovely change from the pothos & philodendrons somehow. We have an 8 year old Hoya at the office that flowers year round for us & we are practically devoted to it! When it got thrips we dropped everything to take care of it! There was a patient in the room so we had to explain…👀😂❤️🙏

Whenever a leaf falls off I always chuck it in water and have never not had it root. I have a bunch of those probably forever single leaf plants around, but based on my experience this Hoya will root in water every time. I never have to heart to throw the fallen leaves away 😅

I found the green one in wallmart last week did have a stem starting but I didn’t want to pay 8$ for something I already had. 💚

That is a good price and a great fund if it had a vine starting, but yeah fully get not wanting another one 😅😅😅😅

I think the bumpy scar areas on the back are a sign of microscopic Hoya mites. Sulfur mite and fungal spray can get rid of them. The mites arrack new growth and cause leaves to come out wonky and stunted.

Loved this video and the information in it! Very enjoyable to watch! Thank you. I tried the Orchid mist on my Hoyas but it did not improve their growth or their health. More sun and warmer temperatures seem to create better growth for my Hoyas. I have the deep green Hoya Kerri and although she is a slow grower, I love her chunky form. I’ve only had her for one growing season but I’m not concerned. In my experience and in the environment my home has to offer, my Hoyas don’t typically show a lot of growth until season two and three. 👌🪴🥰
