I've been hoya obsessed since sitting at my grandmas table, nibbling toast, while staring at her hanging carnosa in a ceramic parrot planter as a child. We had a cutting in our west facing window growing up and it would fill our cedar home with the most exquisite fragrance on summer nights. That cutting is 47 years old now and I have my own cutting and several other cultivars. They are truly special.

I've got a little tip for how to speed up propagation. I saw for the first one, the Hoya retusa, you cut each cutting individually, put your shears down, pinched the leaves and stuck it in the soil. This takes a lot of time. The way we used to do it when I worked as a gardener is that we'd cut the whole vine and then just stick the lowest stem, where we just cut, in the soil and then cut above the node. Stick the next stem right beside the first one, cut above, repeat. This works well for any vining plants with fairly sturdy, not too long internodes (the stem between nodes). It's also easier for plants with smaller leaves, because if the leaves are big you have to do some manual tucking and turning to fit multiple cuttings. Don't know if you apply this method later in the video, haven't watched far into it yet. Btw, you can stop the white sap by putting the cut areas in warm water for just a little bit, no more than a few minutes. This works with ficuses too, and really any plant that produces the milky sap. Though this is probably more useful to any viewers reading this than it is to you, as you said it doesn't bother you ;)

I saw your video yesterday. I kept waking up all night thinking about giving my Hoyas a haircut. Today I did. Some of them never had a haircut in 13 years so they are large and some are 20+ from a friend. Some are only about 5-6. And I was greedy!!! Omg I have soooo many cuttings!! And the plants look great with their haircuts. Thank you for reaching me that it’s ok to trim them like this. Very inspiring. I will have plants soon for plant swaps.

Just got off working all night and was up all day. Defiantly going to have to sit down and watch these. I've started collecting Hoya and have 24 different varieties so far. Many are still small. Can't wait to see them flower. I've managed to get a few really rare ones. But most are more common. Lots to learn, and this looks like a good spot.

"I don't smell anything.....that's super random." Bahahaha. this vid was so great, and what a beautiful collection!

Ive only had one Hoya in the past. It was a huge compacta that reached the ground from 3’ up. Absolutely gorgeous plant! I do want another one. Im not a huge fan of Hoya because I don’t appreciate the vining, but my friend gave me 2 cuttings last night & they’re beautiful plants. One was the pubicallus splash & the carnosa crimson something. Nice video!

Thanks so much for taking us along on your Hoya propagation day! Now I have the courage to make multiple cuttings from 1 long stem! I’m so eager to make fuller Hoya pots!

Watching this again (autoplay, lol), and I am reminded of how greedy I usually am when propagating as well. LOL I got freebies from my neighbor today- their jade pothos is overtaking their front yard, lol- and I saw myself in that bit when you were looking at the cutting intently and figuring out what you were gonna do with it, then decided you're going to be greedy about it. So me! LOL
