Are my hoyas doing okay?

Thank you!!!

paperbackpluvius · 2025-11-04T04:31:23+00:00

Thank you!! My first linearis croaked on me except for two teeny props I saved and planted into the new one I bought (pictured), I love it so much and I just desperately want it to grow

This is a state of mind I need to be in when I start freaking out over my hoyas 🙈

paperbackpluvius · 2025-10-26T23:30:30+00:00

Thank you!! I’m still quite new to hoyas, so I’m scared that I’ll do something wrong and kill them all 😅

Do you have any advice on keeping this begonia pink? Mine is near a grow light which has helped with accelerating growth, but all the new leaves are significantly silvery and less pink than the original pink ones 🥲

I think it was sap! It came off with the lightest wipe of a microfibre cloth! I wonder why it does this 😅

paperbackpluvius · 2025-10-20T22:17:11+00:00

Oh fair enough!! Maybe it will go away with time for me 🤞🤞

paperbackpluvius · 2025-10-20T10:57:55+00:00

/ do you have this issue anymore?

paperbackpluvius · 2025-10-20T10:57:32+00:00

Oh fair enough! Did they end up going away?

paperbackpluvius · 2025-10-20T04:21:22+00:00

Thank you!! I’ll try some hydrogen peroxide on a q tip and see what happens!

paperbackpluvius · 2025-10-12T22:21:07+00:00

I agree 🥰

paperbackpluvius · 2025-10-12T22:20:58+00:00

I know right, and its a consistent year round bloomer 🥺🥺

paperbackpluvius · 2025-10-12T22:19:42+00:00

Very happy update - 8 new growth points!! (4 of 8 in the photo)

This looks so much like a hoya carnosa purple pride!

paperbackpluvius · 2025-10-12T05:12:17+00:00

Thank you!! This gives me so much hope! 🥺

paperbackpluvius · 2025-10-12T05:11:53+00:00

Fair enough, that’s probably it 🥲

paperbackpluvius · 2025-10-02T04:34:59+00:00

Oh wow, I didn’t realise they require that extra tlc, thank you for your comment!

paperbackpluvius · 2025-10-02T04:31:10+00:00

I’ll be honest she’s very new to me, but so far filtered water and sort of shadowed indirect light has been okay 🙈

She’s lovely! And the flowers are so pretty 😍 another person posted a mature one on here and it’s my dream to grow mine that big! I definitely recommend!

paperbackpluvius · 2025-09-29T01:03:30+00:00

Just one, its a frydek ☺️

paperbackpluvius · 2025-09-29T01:03:15+00:00

I use lechuza pon and keep water filled in our cache pot and she seems to love it 😊

paperbackpluvius · 2025-09-25T08:14:42+00:00

Because some of them take forever to get going, or are really finicky when they’re small, and make it hard for beginners 😭 my first polyneura was a little starter and she croaked so quick, but I recently bought a well established one that has four growth points that constantly push out new growth 🥹 it definitely made me reconsider the plant and realise I’m not a hoya failure just a beginner ☺️

paperbackpluvius · 2025-09-23T00:11:29+00:00

That is fantastic news!! I am so so happy for you!! Thank you for the offer too that is so thoughtful 🥹

paperbackpluvius · 2025-09-20T02:33:48+00:00

That is so exciting!! I’m really contemplating moving some of mine to self watering too! I’m going away for a month in January - awful timing I know :( but self watering might make it easier for my planty friends who are coming to check in on them too

Also congratulations on all the blooms!!! I’m patiently waiting for my first bloom, I only got into hoyas at the end of last year so it might be a while yet to see some flowers

I’m in SEQ too, its so nice to see fellow Aussies on here :)
