Top 5 Hoya for Beginners

Today we're going to talk about the top 5 Hoya I would recommend for beginners. They are: 🌿🌿🌿
- Hoya carnosa
- Hoya carnosa 'Krimson Princess'
- Hoya pubicalyx
- Hoya australis
- Hoya 'Iris Marie'
When I picked these five Hoya, I considered three categories:👀
1) Easiness to care for 🤞
2) Commercial availability 🛍
3) Affordability 💰

    I love your philosophy of beginners starting with easier plants to build confidence. I think this can be applied to a lot of things. When you have small wins at the beginning, you'll be less likely to quit!

    i have 2 Hoyas 8 wrinkel for 8 months now and yesterday the first flowers are opened and they are really beautiful. it was really a surprise for me because I thought that young Hoyas had to be at least 2 years old before the started to give flowers, but he iam not complaining because the flowers are just amazing. ps your plants look really beautiful greetings from a truly plant geek from the Nederlands

    I enjoyed the video Amanda. I bought my 3 pubicalyx from The Violet Barn in 2 inch pots 3 years ago and boy were they tiny and in my opinion they have grown well for me. These were my first Hoyas. I also bought a nice size hanging basket of the crimson queen and the crimson princess locally and they both have done well for me. I’ve since added several more small Hoyas to my collection and am very excited that my new little Bella has 2 peduncles. Thanks for sharing your knowledge. I’m going to add the Miami pubicalyx and maybe the Australis to my collection.

    Interesting, in Eastern Europe, a hoya cutting oscilates between 5 and 20 dollars. For expample a rooted potted polyneura splash was 7 dollars and fresh cutting of caudata 10 dollars. I bought a smaller mathilde plant also for 7 and regular carnosa is for free as every grandma has it. I cannot believe the prices in the US. I get when you buy a big plant, you pay 30 dollars but sometimes small cuttings go for so much.

I think I’ve been under watering bc I’m paranoid about root rot but my hoyas are all quite small and in small pots, some terracotta and I think I need to stop being afraid and up my watering game in these 80-90 degree temps.

    @@lokaforhoya5919 I know how you feel! A lot of time if a plant is easy or not really depends on individual environment. For example, polyneura does well in cooler environment, and that's why it does good at where I live, where temperature is constantly around 60 to 70°F. However, it does not do well in Hawaii, even if it's in experienced collector's hands. You're doing fine. Just need to find the ones that do well in your environment. 😊

    Do the leaves on the Pubicaylix have purple leaves when the leaves are young? I recently bought a Hoya Pubicaylix that was marked "Pubicaylix Splash" but it looks EXACTLY like your Purple Hawaiian. Purplish, narrow leaves. Compared to your Splash, I think I got a Purple Hawaiian. That's just fine with me. I like the look of the Purple Hawaiian better.

    There are a lot of possible reasons for a Hoya to get yellow leaves. If it's an isolated incident and it is just the older leaves, it could the natural cycle. Otherwise, it could be anything from nutrient deficiency to toot rot. I recommend you to check the roots first. If the roots looks good, then you might want to fertilize.
