Beautiful ! Thanks for sharing the bloom experience as well as your usually detailed discussion of the hoya. I have two that I got last Fall and Winter, one has thinner leaves. The one with thinner leaves liked being moved closer to a south facing window and doubled in size. The more succulent one which arrived with possible cold damage is hanging out, taking its own sweet time. They get supplemental grow light every day and orchid fertilizer every few weeks. Hoping they will bloom for me next summer. I, never understood why you would stress out a hoya to make it bloom or to get bright colors. They are peaceful living beings that rely on us. That is why I am striving to create a home for them in which they may thrive. Watching all the baby leaves on hoyas is so reewarding. Blooms are a bonus.

I think using the word stress is a very bad idea. Just like "underwater this or underwater that". People can interpret it in different ways leading to a very different outcome. So, I prefer to say 'temperature change will make it bloom' or something similar.

My Obavata is my favorite plant in my whole plant collection. It is generous bloomer and is the plant I would grab on my way out the door if there was a fire

It is crazy to me the hoya that are not sought after or considered common. This is one of them. It is hands down one of my most favorite plants in my home. Wayetii is another one no one talks about but I find to be amazing.

I have the regular obovata, for over 2 years now. I love it. It’s a slow grower for me and I think it’s Bc I don’t water it enough because I followed the myth that I shouldn’t water them so much, but I’ve been changing my routine with my Hoya collection they’re even staring to bloom now. Thanks Miro! Your videos are the most informative about Hoya IMO!

I dont know who came up with not watering them, but i have experienced quite the opposite with all of my Hoya. They dont like to be soaking wet, but i water them once a week to 10 days as I am in Florida and I do keep my plants outside. Many of my hoya I got from others, and were growing like crazy within a month of me getting them. I agree with you. Please water the Hoya! Lol

A sponsor! 👏🏽👏🏽 my regular obovata just pushed out a super long tendril and is growing like a weed but it refuses to bloom 😬 hoyas love to frustrate me like that

My obovata has 3 blooms soon to open, so I decided to watch this vid again. Thanks

I have one, it took 4 years to bloom. When it finally bloomed the cluster was not very big. You have taught me sooooo much. I think you are very funny! Garaitza

I just bought hoya obovata (regular) today👌😍

Congrats on the pretty bloom and sponsor!! This obovata is on my wish list for sooo long now :D

I love your vibe😃, your humor, and your dancing skills! 💚

So nice to see you Miro. Congratulations on getting your Hoya obovata to bloom . Mine has probably not been given enough light to bloom , and only at 1 year growth . Definitely needs a round cage sort of trellis

It's great to see your sweet sassy self again! This is perfectly timed, I just recently finished rooting an obovata and have had it potted in soil for only about a week now. So far so good 🤞 sending lots of love from Canada!

Yes it is beautiful. It is on my list for my next buy.

Obovata is my first in collection and in my heart. 💚

Another great vid Mira! I love my obovata. It's got these huge pancake leaves that gig me out. And it seems that once a new leaf develops it seems to get full size almost overnight. It's just a really cool hoya.

Beautiful!!! I have a splash, and a variegated Kerrii, would totally get one like yours❤🌱🤗❤🍃

Hi! That's a gorgeous obovata. I have a huge one that's about 7 years old, trellised, and growing rapidly. Right now it's over 48 inches tall in the pot. The key is to attach the woody stems to a bamboo hoop, and then trellis the new growth while it's supple.

I love your videos! You should do another round 30 days of Hoyas!

Can't wait for mine to bloom some day! and maybe I got super lucky but I bought a variegated obovata off ebay (UK) and all the leaves are super splashy! it's almost as splashy as Adam's (knotdude) I paid only £25!

I found my obovata ( just the regular green one) at a local nursery about 8 months ago and it quickly became one of my favorite houseplants! It only had 3 leaves when I got it, but they were pretty large leaves already AND had a really good root system. Because it was already well rooted, it hasn't stopped growing and the leaves got even bigger and splashier! To be a fairly common hoya, it really is a unique looking plant with its round leaves and darker green color. It also has plenty of little root nubbins (lol, that's what I call them) along the tendril, so I'm sure when I decide to propagate it it should root up easily!

Hello, I have just bought one and I have just subscribed. Greetings from Poland, although I am in Edinburgh now🌿

I think she's beautiful! I have the non variegated one. Still waiting for blooms! 😍

I have two Hoya (H. wayettii variegated and H. obovota). I love the big, rounded leaves of H. obovata and how this plant looks tumbling and trailing out of a pot.
