I had it on my wishlist since I watched this video when it came out. Finally I can say I have it in my collection and I am so thrilled!!! Rewatching this to get some extra info now that I have it.
I’m with Betsy! I own both lockii & multiflora and they aren’t my favorite foliage but the blooms make up for it. 🤣 current favorite is my Hoya chicken farm, possibly just for the name.
Ok but I love how in depth you go into the history of each Hoya. Like some other people have mentioned, I find information like that hard to find and it’s super interesting. Awesome vid 💛
This is my favourite hoya as well! I love how easy it is to bloom. Easier than multiflora. I rooted mine in water, it wasn’t happy in moss, it was becoming yellow as well.
Mine didn't want to root in water. Then again, I gave it like 3 days lol. It was a bit dehydrated from shipping and I never rooted this type of hoya so I potted it. It does bloom faster than multiflora, I love it!
@@BasiePlants I just got a Hoya Multiflora a month ago. (Received it in the mail Dec. 9th) it now has a peduncle ! As of a few days ago!!! So it’s getting ready to bloom and I’m excited! Is that a normal time frame. It looks to be about the same size as your Hoya Lockii. I also have it somewhat blocked from my grow light as I’ve heard they don’t like too much light …
If I'm lucky, I'll spot a Lokii somewhere here in the Fraser Valley - west coast of Canada. Some large nurseries are sprinkled through the area, so I'll do the sleuthing. The flowers are like shooting stars. Beautiful and zesty. Jasmine flowers have a similar spraying effect, I think, shooting out into space. LOVE it! Someone please stop me from getting more Hoyas, okay? You'll help me out here, won't you Miro? Hahahaha!💐
I watched this video a month ago and went on a crazy hunt for this Hoya in my area and finally got a cutting today! So excited thank you for spreading the word on such a cool plant
Love the look of the flower and that it smells like chocolate.. but my hoyas rarely bloom and the foliage of the lockii looks so thin.. which means I probably won’t get it. I like my hoyas thicc and succulent..
I think I’m late to the party but I’m glad I found your channel and this video. I got this hoya about 3 wks ago and it has a peduncle right now. Love your videos. 💚💚💚
Cool! Didn't know H. multiflora could come in such a different form. My clone has wider leaves and deep ruffles, and looks very much like a Coffee plant. lockii was already on my wishlist, but I'm moving it up after hearing about the fragrance.
Ohhhhh Miro!!! I'm so envious! She is gorgeous!!! H. Lockii has been on my wishlist (love the flowers but also the frilly leaves 😍) for over 3 years now but I've never found it at a price point I can afford. I'm in the EU so there is hope!
Hi Miro! I always love seeing your new (and old) videos. I do not have Hoya Lockii..........yet. :) I have taken some time off from buying new hoyas, it's been a whole 10 days! Ha!
My lockii is growing in my milsbo cabinet, still dark green with a few silver sparks here and there, almost the size of yours, in spagnum moss/perlite but NO pedunkel yet...(so I'll keep an eye on it for the good and the ugly)
Beautiful bloom! I don't have this one and the ones I have got so big but may be will bloom now.thanks for telling about this one.I will look for it.new subscriber and like.
So, my Lockii opened its first blooms last night (yay!). I don't smell any chocolate 👀 Smells like grass to me 🤷♀️ However, I must say that after the Krohniana debakel in which a single bloom turned the house into a public toilet odour wise for days, any scent that ends up not smelling strongly of pee is a win in my book 😅
@@BasiePlants mine has been in bud continuously since I got it. It's less than 10 inches high. My first blooms opened last week. No smell though..night or day. I'm putting Lockii on my list, would love to have those flowers with a scent.
Hoya lockii has unexpectedly become my favourite hoya of yours. At first I was also unsure about the leaves, but the flowers are amazing, and they make the leaves amazing too. Please do not trellis it :D ❤️
Hi Miro ! Wow my must have, Hoya lokii is native to Vietnam. I am a huge fan of Hoya multiflora. I always ask either padanca (peduncle) or multiflora. We Easy to flower is what I want. I don’t think they are available in Australia. I am not a fan of Hoya Imperialis flower. I am the opposite. I am very arty when it comes to trellis hahaha
I am not fan of H.imperialis anymore either. But I love multiflora and lockii :) I hope they grow big! And I hope for more clones of multiflora :) I hope you can find some in Australia eventually! Lucky you. My trellising game is very bad 😂
@@BasiePlants hahaha yeh I can see ! I have 3 small multiflora at the moment. I try to get more. They are not expensive but hard of find. I did miss out a few opportunity in the last. I thought that lady who has 400 Hoya in her apparent (from Summer RUclips videos) said lockii flowers last a month 🤔🤨🧐 the white colour is amazingly beautiful. The weather is stating to warm up here. I didn’t suffer a lot of Hoya dead this winter. I think Hoya needs attention. The one I neglecting tend to had root rot . I know so much about root rot now. 2 ladies in our group has root mealy bugs :-(. They both have ton of Hoya. It’s pretty scary. Hm I think I am gonna purchase a head mat for propagation hahaha I was wondering all through winter why rooting is so slow for me hahaha
Hi Nero, an advice pls, when you put the hoya lockii cutting in coco peat and perlite in prop box, you lift the cover a bit or totally closed and you will open the lid after some days? This is my second time of ordering hoya lockii and the leaves are dried after traveling. Please help me thankyou
Fun video as always 👍 regarding the trellising, have you watched Unsolicited Plant Talk vídeos on RUclips? She only has 2 videos published here and they are about hoya trellis - I found them very useful 🍃😊
Miro, I love how fun you make growing Hoyas! Can I ask you about my Compacta leaves please? At the base of each rope the leaves are one by one turning yellow and shriveling. Water issue? Light issue? Growing mix issue? I can’t lose this plant, I just can’t. Miro tell me what you think.
I would unpot it and check the roots. It sounds like roots may be the issue - it could be both over or underwatering. Both of these can lead to root rot. If the roots are gone, I would root the plant again, compacta is easy to root :) If you grow in organic mix, I think coco peat with lots or perlite and bark would do. You need an airy mix that will dry out fast so you could water more frequently. Hoyas in fact do like water, it rains almost daily where they are from, but unlike in our pots, in their natural habitat their roots get lots of air and water doesn't stay around the roots for too long. Hope this helps!
@@BasiePlants The roots seemed vigorous and found in good condition in a loose fine barky medium. I separated the worst vines from the healthy ones. I repotted the two groups into separate pots with coco peat mixed with pumice, orchid bark and coca coir chips. I have moved both sets to a top window facing south for more light and I hope for the best now. Thank you Miro 🙏
Hoya mafia.HA! It is beautiful though. im waiting on a Sheperdii,never really wanted one,but eh,why not right? I have a Patricia and it looks similar to Lokii.i LOVE my Patricia,its putting out a baby leaf now.
Don't tell anyone that I am Hoya mob boss. I just got shepherdii too. I bought one before, but it is in fact Dischidia, not a hoya. I have 'Patricia' too :) I can't wait to see it bloom.
From where do you get so much in depth info regarding the Hoyas? It's simply awesome. The historical info is the highlight of your videos. Is there any website we can look up to? I refer Hoya study corner and website of Doug Chamberlain. Are there any other suggestions? TIA
Look for published papers on Researchgate. They are not always available to read but sometimes they are. IPNI and PlantsOfTheWorldOnline are great resources to and can sometimes lead you directly to original publications. P.S.The Hoyan is also available online :)
Dear Miro, can you provide us with an update on your lockii? Still growing in the same medium? Did it get "bushier"? Since mine was always drying out, I now transferred her into Pon. Do you think this was a mistake? Kindest regards from Switzerland
I think updating you on several hoyas is definitely a good idea! Yes, mine pushed out another branch that quickly caught up with the first one. It grows very fast and blooms all the time :) I repotted mine to 15cm pot because it was drying out too fast, in a mix with more cocopeat than perlite. Perhaps 60-40 or so. I don't think it is a mistake to put it in pon in self-watering, but it may need a moment to adjust :)
Each individual flower with bella should last about a week, slightly more :) But it is a great bloomer! So it can be in bloom for weeks, but flowers change. Lockii is known for having the longest lasting (individual) flower on hoyas.

@@vannee2426 love him!! 🤩
@@vannee2426 Yes! I’m a pretty recent subscriber and he’s hilarious!
lol!
please keep telling us the history/discovery of each hoya species. the info is kinda hard to find (unless i’ve been looking at the wrong places lol).
I will never stop talking about hoyas, no worries 😂
You can talk me into buying anything! Love watching you!
Everybody but me. 😂 Another great video, I'm glad you're happy with your Hoya. 💚 The flowers are wonderful. Just the flowers.
😂 better exchange your lobbii for this.
I had it on my wishlist since I watched this video when it came out. Finally I can say I have it in my collection and I am so thrilled!!! Rewatching this to get some extra info now that I have it.
Oh Miro, now my Hoya wishlist is even longer. Love the videos!
But Hoya lockii is worth it! :)
I’m with Betsy! I own both lockii & multiflora and they aren’t my favorite foliage but the blooms make up for it. 🤣 current favorite is my Hoya chicken farm, possibly just for the name.
🥲 My heart is broken 😂 But I actually am starting to like thinner leaves hoyas more. 😂

It really is 😂

Also where did you get your glasses my boyfriend wants to know 😂
Agreed! I’ve had mine for a year. It blooms constantly. Yes staking it works well.
Glad to hear that :D Definitely no to a trellis 😂
Love the look of the flower and that it smells like chocolate.. but my hoyas rarely bloom and the foliage of the lockii looks so thin.. which means I probably won’t get it. I like my hoyas thicc and succulent..
Oh but lockii is easy to bloom :) Blooms early and frequently. :D
The hardest thing about Hoya lokii is finding one! Before this video was even over I started trying to find one, with no luck. It's on my wish list!
Love these hoyas. You are very lucky to have so many beautiful hoyas. Im very envious of the beautiful blooms.
I hope you can get some of these too :)
I think I’m late to the party but I’m glad I found your channel and this video. I got this hoya about 3 wks ago and it has a peduncle right now. Love your videos. 💚💚💚
The flowers are beautiful! We just got our first Hoya, and I can see how it easy it can be to have more than one.
It is very very easy to have more than one :D
You should make a video about the type of hoyas that need a bit more water, and if there’s tricks to figure out which hoyas like it dryer and such!

I am sure you will find it! Maybe you can look for one in Sweden? They can ship to EU :)
Beautiful plants
Thank you 🙂
Hi Miro! I always love seeing your new (and old) videos. I do not have Hoya Lockii..........yet. :) I have taken some time off from buying new hoyas, it's been a whole 10 days! Ha!
I just got this one I'm so happy that you're talkin about it so I went and looked at mine and I found a peduncle. I hope it blooms for me.
It will bloom for sure! Just be careful with watering, if you let it dry out now, the flowers won't make it.
They look pretty similar … I thought at first “those flowers are very white for a Hoya multiflora”.
Thanks for explaining the differences.
Yes, it is different than multiflora, but both are beautiful in my opinion :)
Lovely video hope my lockii blooms too my multiflora did twice so far your videos are funny too and love the history background you give thx
I am sure it will bloom soon! :)
My lockii is growing in my milsbo cabinet, still dark green with a few silver sparks here and there, almost the size of yours, in spagnum moss/perlite but NO pedunkel yet...(so I'll keep an eye on it for the good and the ugly)
It will bloom very soon! :)
got distract by orchid " i need to water my orchid" 🤣
Pretty hoya, love the flower. Love the hair styles also 🤣🤪.
It is pretty! Plus smells wonderful!
Always look forward to seeing your videos thank you
I am glad to hear that 💚
Hi Miro ) I got my lockii three weeks ago. It sits in sphagnum moss and we already have some roots. Love it!
That is great! I didn't have moss at the time but when I propagate this one I will give it a go! You can expect blooms very soon!
I do love this Hoya and it’s easier to keep than Multiflora for me.
So far they are about the same for me but lockii definitely blooms sooner!
Beautiful bloom! I don't have this one and the ones I have got so big but may be will bloom now.thanks for telling about this one.I will look for it.new subscriber and like.
I hope you can find it soon!

I think so too! :)
Great… Now I need another Hoya! 😂 🤦🏼♀️ Great video! Thank you for sharing! 💚
My goal is for everyone to have all hoyas, really 😂
@@BasiePlants I’m pretty sure you and I know that is absolutely impossible! 😂 But we can try. 🤣
I couldn't keep buds on my multiflora until I put it in a self watering pot. My temps have been 95 plus with 80 plus humidity, here in Florida.
Yup, they definitely want more water than your regular hoya. I can't wait to see mine in bloom though!

Hoya lockii has unexpectedly become my favourite hoya of yours. At first I was also unsure about the leaves, but the flowers are amazing, and they make the leaves amazing too. Please do not trellis it :D ❤️
*Please don't trellis any hoya ever again* Or stake any plant. 😂 That is why I let them go wild 😂
I now have 7 hoyas, one is in bloom. Loving them, a few I tried died. What are your best beginner hoyas, or favorite easy flowering ones.
I’m going to get one of these someday. Right now the only sellers I see are in China and SE Asia. I’ll have to wait for now.
I am not sure where you are, but there are some sellers in Europe :)
Loved this video!!!!
I like thin-leaved hoyas. Maybe I should get a lockii.
My papaschonii is developing seedpods atm. ☺
You definitely should get one :D
Omg that sucks im in the us lol im ahot out of luck .. it's a vary interesting hoya.
I think you should be able to find it in the US too, but I am not sure about the price.
So funny 😂❤

Sorry Basie, don’t like thin leaved hoyas. As far as I can go is Hoya Iris marie. But nice try.
😱 'Iris Marie' is cute but lockii blooms faster!
The flowers are 😙👌 like small innocent rockets to shoot us on another hoya star
I love them so much. We need more hoyas like this one!
My mind just instantly refer to Hoya multiflora but e em that’s lockii. Is lockii a terrestrial hoya, miro?
No, lockii is epiphytic hoya. Imperialis is terrestrial. Weird, right?
🌿✨💕

But love my Hoyas
I hope you can get lockii too :)
I wish all hoya can flower at small size like this one ..😂
And i think you will soon ‘hate’ incrasata more .. it leaves can grow pretty big 😅

No offence to Hoya lockii but she kind of looks like her basic cousin milkweed.
