My hoya serpens had two seedpods last year in my livingroom. They opened in December after 6 months and now I have like 50 tiny hoya serpens seedlings. So cute
@@summerrayneoakes You seemed quite in control of your faculties, dear, but I can see how it must've been a bit dizzying. t would've been nice if he could've given you some cuttings..but maybe this would be a problem getting through customs with your treasures... Your knowledge & familiarity shone through. I could see his respect for your genuine appreciation & knowledgeable observations grow. I think he learned a thing or two from you too. He seemed a very respectful man, towards you, & not at all like an arrogant expert,.
I've never actually heard of a Hoya before. Only really gotten into botany in the past two years; I'm only 19 and still have plenty of studying to do, but it's always nice when you learn about something totally new!
You could spend a lifetime studying the native flora and fauna of England and still have plenty to learn, not to mention the innumerable introduced and cultivated species.
I put my Hoyas outside in my shade garden last summer. I'd never had the plants outdoors before. Hoyas are related to our native milkweed species and a Monarch butterfly actually laid eggs on my plants. I found caterpillars nibbling on the leaves! Now I'm wondering if Monarchs would pollinate the flowers. I am so astounded by that Hoya collection. It's so beautiful!
That's so amazing they have over 600 species. Love your tours! There is so much beauty in nature and all the different plants she has to offer. Such an amazing collection!
So many great Hoya varieties! I had no idea there were so many. I'd love to stay there all day and surround myself with them too lol I really learned so much about these Hoyas, thank you so much for sharing a great video! I loved it!
(27:30) - Their substrate culture is similar to orchid medium. It retains moisture and drains perfectly. They repot yearly because when the coir breaks down it retains too much water and doesn’t drain well , which can cause root rot. Over time it also tends to accumulate salts, etc., from fertilizer and any tap water used, which can weaken the root system. Their culture provides ideal conditions for vigorous root growth by replicating conditions found in nature where the growing medium is microbially dynamic and constantly refreshing itself and being leached clean by rain. This is especially important for epiphytic and semi-epiphytic hoyas which fair poorly in ‘sour’ soil. ~ (shout out) - Doug Chamberlain recently posted a video on his experience growing Hoya griffithii, one of the rare plants discussed herein.
Summer, your videos are a joy in my life! I have three favorite plant you tubers and you are one! The other two are: 1. My Little Garden and More 2. Planterina. You all give knowledge of plants so differently but always professionally and with such good energy and love.
Not surprised that Anders from Sweden is the guide of this particular episode. Seems like many Swedes have a close relationship with both Thailand and Hoyas! 🇸🇪🌿 🇹🇭🏔️🏖️
Great episode. Not sure why I didn’t see it last year. Seems like YT is suggesting several older videos that I somehow missed. Glad I’m getting to see them.
That is Hoya heaven for sure. I bet you're tempted to live in Thailand due to the availability of so many tropical plants, not to mention great weather. Loved this video.
I stumbled across a Hoya fungii not too long ago-I immediately knew I had to buy it because how big the leaves the leaves are. That’s probably one of my favorite so far.
Another BEAUTIFUL AND AMAZING field trip. I'm proud to say that my Hoya carnosa is still alive and dare I say Thriving!!! I've had her since August of last year. First one for me. Thanks again for taking us along. 💐🌸💮🏵🌹🌺🌻🌼🌷🌱🐔
I need to visit that amazing collection to sample the fragrances and if possible get som two or three of the most liked And I wander if the composition of the soils affect the smells like the wines , teas and coffees are varied according to the soils?
Hi ! Am from India. Amazed to see Hoya Kanyakumariana. Kanyakumari is the southernmost tip of India. The hoya since it has its origin from Kanyakumari, the plant species got its name as Hoya Kanyakumariana. And am proud to write this comment ! Thanks for the video.
So interesting to see all the Hoyas and how they are grown . I’ve never seen them with supports in the pot for the stems to grow on. I’ll have to do this for my vining Hoyas 🌿
I really enjoyed this episode. I learned a lot about hoya care and will be tweaking my nurturing techniques. Not expecting the amazing results in this episode, but hopeful that mine will show significant improvement. Much appreciated!
How charming this guy has a slight Thai accent!. They have 600+ varieties!!! 😳😳😳. Rayne, you actually flew across the world to see this Hoya Nursery??? The blooms remind me of a Covid-19 diagram ! Thank you ,Rayne for sharing.👌👌👌
Absolutely loved this tour!! I have a hoya excavata at home (the one with the large, thick racket shaped leaves) but it's so much smaller than the one you saw hehe! Seeing all these beautiful and sometimes rare specimens was really enjoyable, thank you :)
Wonderfull video. Beautiful healthy plants displayed inside of perfectly ideal glasshouses. Brilliantly shot footage so as to be easy informal and relaxed yet packed with interest and knowledge. The narrative is so well delivered proving Summer has excellent communication skills. Captivating from start to finish. The time it took me to view felt more like 5 minuites. Well done to all that made this video.
Thank you for yet another magnificent field trip! I had no idea there were so many forms of Hoya, or of their cultural needs & no idea about the world my variegated Hoya was a part of. I know that scent of the velvety pinkish white bloom well, & the fascinating little red dots clustered in the center, that look like candy. Too bad I had no idea what type of soil it needed. It survived for maybe 15, 20 years, then began looking poorly. I didn't have a clue what it needed. It struck a chord of recognition when you described the way mine looked before it finally kicked the bucket. I had moved to a place with much larger windows & better light. Thought it would thrive in such good, direct S/W facing morning blasts of sun. As you pointed out, it grew weary looking & paler, & even had a couple leaves turn yellow. It was losing it's waxy coating, looking flat & dull. I thought it was drying in a sunnier spot, so gave it more water. That was the final straw. Now I get it...
Thank you so much for the tour!! I run an orchid nursery in South Africa and have a few hoyas on the side, have never seen so many species at one time!! Thank you
Wow! That H glabra was impressive for its leaves alone, then the H megalaster flowers were SO impressive! What a treasure trove! I suspect there will be an orchid episode waiting in the wings ...
Loved this, my hoyas, unidentified by me yet, have grown more than 5m long so I took cuttings and have put them in water to root. Could you please do a video of frangipanis, my favourite plant I would like to see the many different ones.
I used to have a fairly substantial Hoya collection but my health declined and I wasn’t able to care for them and I lost them all. I hope to be able to have a few again in the future. Visiting this place is on my bucket list. I actually got cuttings from the Little’s back in the day. I miss my hoyas.
Winter time i like put shade and light. Summer time put outside and get 6 hour sun then it get flowers. I like used Epsom salt 8 teaspoon to 1 gallons water winter. Epsom salt i only do one time years. Help the roots. I do all my plants with Epson salts.
Hoyas are very common here in the Philippines and they have a very high diversity here. I did not know Thailand really loves them. Here in the Philippines we keep them as garden plants
That was amazingly interesting! I so happy I saw this before getting a Hoya! There was so many too, I’m shook! Once again thank you for another great video guys! 😺
I have a Pubicalyx- I THINK it's the Royal Purple, but I'm not sure. I fell for the beautiful flecks on the leaves- but it has been giving me SO much love lately. I'm not super well versed in my plants yet, but it's put out five new leaves in the last two months, and I am pretty sure it's growing a few flower spurs. It's my one Hoya still going crazy- I don't think it got the memo that winter is resting time!
What a cool tour! It's a pity though that you spent so much time on hoyas we are familiar with like kerrii or pubicalyx or macrophylla when there were hundreds of Hoyas to explore there.
I came back to view these wonderful plants again. I am in love with Hoya now. I don’t see them around. I would love to have each one of them. My friends love them too. Please grow all the different ones in a large family pot and sell them to the public lovers. So we don’t have to look for different ones everywhere. Thanks 🙏 😊
Agreed 1000%. I don't know why many plant youtubers fiddling NEW leaves so much mindlessly and say "it's okay because...". 🙄 Never liked that. Too ignorant.
Wow, I 'll be in hoya heaven, thanks for sharing, my hoya pubicalis pink fragant tends to form seed pods after bloming could be a moth is growing outside.
Great information and filming. Really good to see how the experts do it. I was wondering with hoyas getting so crazy popular, is poaching them from the wild for overseas markets getting to be a problem?
I think there isn't even any habitat for poachers to poach from. Habitat loss is the greatest issue there. Plus they propagate so easily, you don't need to pull them out by the roots. Many of the hoya plants are edge species though too, so as forest gets cut, they can start to populate on some of those edges, but the challenge is too rapid deforestration in critical habitats.
Summer Rayne Oakes wow, I truly had no idea the situation was that dire. That is incredibly disheartening. 😢 maybe sounds trite but but what do you personally think is best way to help right now to help?
Hoya kanyakumariana - could be a species that originated in Kanyakumari (India). It's a coastal temple town at the southern tip of the Indian Subcontinent.
The Tropical Garden is open to the public (see here: ruclips.net/video/aQ9q9bOl55U/видео.html)....but these research collections are not unfortunately..

I have wanted a serpens for a really long time, lucky you to have not a mother plant but babies! I'm envious!
@@44Jupiter44 I don't know where you're from but in Europe they are getting more and more avaiable?
@@barbarab1001 I'm in the US. I see them maybe 3 times a year online, but never in person
That's amazing! Xxx
Omg, you’re so fortunate. Congratulations!
Have you seen my mind? I lost it somewhere in here.
Same, it is such a magnificent collection!!
Betsy Begonia haha haha I lost mine in there too. 😂
I had to collect my brains afterwards too.

I've never actually heard of a Hoya before. Only really gotten into botany in the past two years; I'm only 19 and still have plenty of studying to do, but it's always nice when you learn about something totally new!
And I've mostly stuck to learning about my own surrounding fauna, so England, which isn't all that diverse but its still interesting enough.
You could spend a lifetime studying the native flora and fauna of England and still have plenty to learn, not to mention the innumerable introduced and cultivated species.
@@Nhoj31neirbo47 I concur!
No matter what your age, you will find that plants provide endless fascination and learnings....
I am in awe! From my perspective, Summer you live a very enchanted life! This place is absolutely dreamy. Thank you for bringing it to us.
Thanks for watching!

As I'm still watching this at 22 minutes in, I am totally blown away that this is his personal collection. My gosh! I could get so lost there!
Tour an orchid or rose nursery in the near future please!
That subtle smell , that you catch and brings you back, but is hard to pin point , what and where you smelt it , is a joy
I feel blessed to get a private tour of a private collection of Hoyas! It feeds the scientific side of me and the aesthetic. Great video!!

I love Hoyas they're such eady care plants for me and they just look absolutely beautiful and their flowers too! ♡
I wish the person giving the tour was the main person looking after this collection!! They would have such incredible knowledge 😍
At the risk of sounding dramatic, I think I've discovered where I want my ashes thrown😅
you can be a fertilizer if you want to
To be honest, same!
Disneyland for Gardeners and plant enthusiasts for sure. Nong is describing younger sibling and Nooch (nook) bird.
15:36 ...patience and the leaf WILL ROOT!!! May take years but IT WILL!!!
I can't believe I missed this video. Such an amazing collection of hoyas. I feel I need more. Also he is so lucky in have all that space to have them.
that hoya tour is divine
Aw wow I’ve only heard of David Liddle today and he sounds like an amazing person. I know that he has passed away and that is a big loss. Great video!
Wow soo many beautiful Hoyas. Thanks for sharing!!!!!!
Your little sprint to the car at the beginning, was very cute. ^^
Cant wait to see the rest of the Video.
I felt like skipping really!
Not surprised that Anders from Sweden is the guide of this particular episode. Seems like many Swedes have a close relationship with both Thailand and Hoyas! 🇸🇪🌿 🇹🇭🏔️🏖️
starting now I will love hoya
thanks for the video summer

That is Hoya heaven for sure. I bet you're tempted to live in Thailand due to the availability of so many tropical plants, not to mention great weather. Loved this video.
That carnosa x serpens is so cute im obsessed with how it looks like a tiny chubby carnosa
I stumbled across a Hoya fungii not too long ago-I immediately knew I had to buy it because how big the leaves the leaves are. That’s probably one of my favorite so far.
Dumping water at 23:25 demonstrates how the imbricata leaf structure could possibly also serve as phytotelma for hosts of other forest creatures.
Wow, never saw or heard about a extensive Hoya collection this huge... Thanks for giving us a nice and informative view in there! 🌿
What an incredible greenhouse. Absolutely stunning
This is my most exquisite dream place. I don’t think I would ever leave. 😍
Thank you so much for letting us see these amazing hoya sights!
My type of video! Hoya is my all time, #1 favorite plant 😍
Edit: So that's where David Littles collection went!!! I always pondered this. Incredible!
Another BEAUTIFUL AND AMAZING field trip. I'm proud to say that my Hoya carnosa is still alive and dare I say Thriving!!! I've had her since August of last year. First one for me. Thanks again for taking us along. 💐🌸💮🏵🌹🌺🌻🌼🌷🌱🐔
Bravo on another amazing video. I love the field trip edition .shingleing hoya are the best
thanks for watching!

Im only 5 minutes in but 1. im in love and 2. i need to start correcting my pronunciations for these hoyas!! Lol 😆💚
I’m just amazed of the Hoya there. WOW 😳.

I wish I could have just a portion of these! They're so cool.
Thank you so much I enjoyed this so much.
Beautiful Hoya collection!!!
24:32 Hello Summer. Could you please please please tell me what the name of the Hoya is at this time stamp?

Please grow all the different ones in a large family pot and sell them to the public lovers. So we don’t have to look for different ones everywhere. Thanks 🙏 😊
Really great episode, thank you for sharing this! (;

What a treat to be shown around this collection! Though, I cringed every time you forced a leaf to turn all the way over. 😅

Hi Summer! Is this open to the public? The Nong Nooch Tropical Garden? I want to check it out when I go to Bangkok in the future.
