Hehe we have to accept them as a part of our ecosystem, and trust our methods in controlling them to minimal levels. Its unrealistic to hit zero with mealy bugs.

FINALLY FINALLY wax ivy is the most underrated houseplant ever!! edit: and yes they are very fast growing they could be invasive i have had mine for 3 years now and i have tons and tons of pots of them lol but i love them (also they are quite poisonous so careful getting the sap in your mouth or eyes it gave ma a migraine quite a few times)

Perfect timing. I just added this to my wishlist and been looking for it.

I recently purchased this plant, so perfect timing on the care video!🙏🏼🌱

Thanks Shaun, love the creepy voice at the end. You made me confident in cutting up my plants to propagate, I now have shared a lot of my plants family and friends.

I just got one today & already started propagating 🌿

I love your excitement and enthusiasm! A common quality of a true plant person 👌🏻 I love it! Your plants are beautiful!

I love that you featured this plant, it's not Instagram famous but I love it, such an easy care plant. One thing to pay attention to is when it seeds...the seeds get airborne like dandelions so another reason why they can be a noxious weed if living outdoors. I have the lime variegated one and the dark green variegated one, would also love the all green variety but hasn't really made a presence in Australia. I might try get my dark green to revert if I can't find it.

I have the green one. Just find it got aphids 😭 I'm so terrified of pest. Can't be as calm as you with those nasty pest. Lol I read somewhere says that those wax Ivy are not prone to pest.... I guess it's not.

I killed this 5 times n other English ivy around 6 times ... So beside the hoya serial killer I'm also an ivy serial killer too ... They were died of too much sunlight, over watering or underwatering or compli ation of all of those reasons. Right now I just bought another green English ivy . It has been a week I propagate a few cuttings in water meanwhile the mother plant started to show brown leaves on some of the leaves n baby leaves. I got many advice to place it in bright indirect light, shady place even under paranetn watering just when the soil dries out or even just splash every day from some utubers, ig ppl or the sellers in n out of Indonesia ... Please help me what's wrong with my care ? Hoping u can make a video about English ivy variegated or not. This plant is so beautiful that has caught my heart since I was in the elementary school when watching a movie, secret garden.
