which doesn't matter as now you have that lovely elven hairstyle you will never age another day! Edit to say, i can also to the arm/hand thing. Edit 2 to say i was sketching while you repotted
Because of you I began a Hoya addiction. I have a 5 Hoya collection in just over a month and I am obsessed with small leaved ones. Your channel is so cool and you are so funny. Thanks for helping me through difficult times. You're the best!
Miro, I absolutely love this. You are so charismatic, knowledgeable, talented and likeable it's ridiculous, lol. A 2+hour video would be fantastic, even if you talk about nothing but hair braiding, but I don't want you to spend the next 18 years editing. Btw: how about a (3hr) video all about Hoya carnosas? I am fascinated about all the many carnosa cultivars and types. And I've found they're very cool temp tolerant (which helps as I'm always trying to conserve heating oil over the winter).
I love your videos, not only are they very informative. I love the honesty in your comments what you like and dislike in products and plants. You are very entertaining and make me smile. Great addition to my days!
I worked on my Christmas tree macrame project and had dinner. Thanks for the company. I personally prefer videos with Miro rather than less Miro. The other one cracks me up more 🤣
I've been following you since the beginning, I started my channel around the same time and my subscribership is WAY less than yours. But here's the thing, I love your realness, I love your content and knowledge, and I love that you make me laugh. You are one of my favourites, in fact, I would prefer your videos to some of the really BIG channels. I am also a hoya head 🤣💚💚💚
Oh I definitely know you are a hoya head :D Thank you for the lovely words 💚 I don't mind the channel size at all, but I was just saying, I am not the one to give tips :D I have no idea what I am doing, let's be real 🤣 I just record what I want to see :D
Miro, I admire that you are very involved in raising your hoyas. I see channels about hoyas and they are all starters in cups. Your plants are so gorgeous. You have such healthy beautiful plants. Even your easter cactus is so long with lovely blooms. My plants don't seem to want to take off. what can i do? I bought curtsii twice and they both died. bellas 3 times. they died. I don't let they dry but it's like they don't acclimate very well. Ideas? the last ones I bought I think came with flat mites. they just pinched off and died.
You wanted to grow up to be a Disney villain? That’s adorable! My daughter was about 4 when she told me she wanted to grow up and become a Pokémon trainer. Now 28, she settled into being an accountant instead. Really enjoyed this chatty repotting video!
I just received my very 1st Hoya which is a Mathilde starter plant, I paid 8.00 for a cutting, and I love it. The soil is good just bottom water the hoya and I will put it under grow light after it finishes draining.
Thanks for answering my question! We also watched Rings of Power and I agree - it was good for what it is. I think I need to get a TV or computer set up near my potting station and the next time you post a video like this, I will repot along with you.
Love drawing or playing video games when watching your videos. I would do plant care but I always come back and watch the visuals. Your hoya collection is so fascinating and I don't want to miss any.
I agree with you on the orchids. Love them. And they are not hard to take care of at all. But I do have limited space and hoya DO rank higher so I will make do with the orchids I have and just drool over others 😁
I, for one, am glad you started your RUclips channel. I have been enjoying your channel for the past two years and am highly entertained. I tell my family that it is your fault that I have so many Hoyas! I love my Hoyas! When I get where I don’t love one, I gift it to my younger sister. I enjoyed this video and learned a lot about you and your love of plants. You and Betsy are my favorite Hoya experts. Thank you for sharing your knowledge of Hoyas and for the laughs!
Love your videos esp your Q&A. Such great info and really appreciate your experience. I can pull my thumb inward to touh my wrist also. Have a great week. Peace. Patty
For mealybugs try a mix of neem oil dawn dishwashing liquid and water spray it on a pad and clean the leaves....use only a few drops of neem oil its strong and may burn you plants...its works wonders for all of my plants especially my orchids and hoyas....happy growing❤
I can do the same thing with my elbows. 😲 I love the question and answer format. You did good braiding your hair. One question for next time- should you trellis a Hoya as soon as a vine shoots out? Thanks for the video.
Thank you for putting a smile on my face ☺️ you have a wonderful personality and I personally love your long videos . Please don't stop making videos this is my entertainment I do not watch much TV or movies .. so thank you again .
I have no access to systemic pest control in California, I have been washing the plants with a small bottle brush in a sink full of soapy (Castile soap) water, but someone suggested Azamax, which I have just ordered. Keeping my fingers crossed to ever rid myself of mealies!
What did I do while watching? Why I recharged my bum battery, thanks for asking. 😂 (spinal cord stimulator) On a side note, that mitrata is to die for. I told myself I don’t need one as I have undulata, but yours keeps teasing me into putting it back on the wish list. ❤
I made beef stew and washed dishes during this video! I’m sure I wasn’t the only one but, I did ask you if you had any pets 😌 thanks for the long video!
@@BasiePlants regular mealybugs, both times have been small infestations but I haven’t seen a single mealybug on the plants since. I’ve heard that Leca can lessen the chance of root pests, but I have no experience with root pests as of yet!
Great hoya video. When will you be doing another aroid/ anthurium vid. I'm holding my breath for that! I love Hoyas but aroids are my loves ❤ and yours are so beautiful 😍 you need to talk more about them. ✌💜
Thanks for answering my question and for the long video I very much look forward to every video from you! Btw. have you tried Earl Gray tea? That's my ritual every morning and it has very very little caffeine, I drink it with some milk and honey as well. That's when I watch your videos, drinking my tea in the morning and checking on my plants. :)
I know why you are so flexible and can do all those extra bendy things. I'm the same way and have been diagnosed with a connective tissue disorder. There are a few of them but Ehler's Danlos Syndrome is one that will make you extra bendy and flexible. It's not a big deal if you don't have any other symptoms but can be a real PITA if you have other health problems because of it.
Awesome Hoya Videos...so glad your friend recommended. I have been seeing a few plant people complaining lately about receiving bad Hoyas...dying...after 1 1/2 month or so of having them...troops are dead/dying..sellers not giving refund...so they chop and prop them...whats your advice on getting new plants...how do you care for your new Hoyas...asking cause I'm soon getting fresh cutting...tks your Awesome..Cat from Vancouver Island BC
I filled a deep basin/bucket with a mixture of water, alcohol, peppermint and/or neem oil and castile soap, covered the soil with tissue and taped it up so that when I tip the whole pot and plant upside-down, very little soil escapes. Then I soak the foliage upside down in the bucket for about 30 mins. I have the plant resting on long cooking chopsticks so that the soil doesn't get wet. I did this once or twice and that seemed to have got rid of them. I haven't had mealy bugs for a couple of years. I had them on my Hindu Rope Hoyas which as you can imagine is a nightmare to kill with all those curly leaves.
@@BasiePlants it was the best, your the best, and I love your humor and all around aura. If I lived closer I’d want to hang out and do repotting and trellis making dates🥰❤️🥰
As someone who loves palms, but can't make them thrive, I've switched to loving my monstera subpinnata and philodendron tortum instead. It's not the same, but it's less depressing than killing palms!
Love these relaxed, chatty videos!! I’m still having these issues of my blooms blasting before they open fully 😢. Some will open and then they’ll all dry up and fall off
Are you watering them enough? 👀 When my hoyas work on buds I am on top of the watering. I never let them dry out fully. I noticed mine often blast buds if the watering is inconsistent.
@@walle5667 I do need to keep a more consistent schedule on my watering for that area. They all sit in a south facing window that gets loads of light so they probably are drying out a bit faster. Thank you for that advice!! It’s driven me crazy not knowing!
Hi Miro, new to your channel and find you fascinating 🙂 But can you please tell me a little about the plant having domatia? Is this common in Hoya? Is this not a concern?
I found a seller near me that imports green 24 to Canada so I recently started trying out the Hoya one from that and honestly I might be crazy but all my hoyas boosted into growing more as soon at I used it. I used miracle grow for a while but that's weak.
Question. Plz help lol. When I go to trellis new vines (I wait til they’re very long) sometimes the end of the vine will die the next day after I trellis it. I don’t do it tight either. Help 😢
Awesome chatty video!! New subscriber here!! I asked for fresh plant information--entertraining-style... and your channel appeared in my suggestions list. Binge watching like a fiend. lols!! You are the Bestest: Informative in a scholarly way, off-coloured delivery realness, a lover~hater of only all my favourite plants, a much-needed delightful diversion to the heavy-hearted work I do, and you are hilarious!! Thank YOU!❤🔥🌿🌸💮🏵🌺🌼❤🔥 p.s. The rumours are true. Hoya Mathilde's blooms really do smell like poop--I falsely accused my cats Mitter Rufus, Veruschka, and Atto-Kalashnikova-47 for smelling up my giant hoya plant room, though I found no evidence--only to discover it was Mata--Hoya Matilde's beautiful flowers that were stinking up the room.😹🙀💮
Hahaha, I love your cats' names xD Oh I did not hear Mathilde smells like poop! What I heard is that it smells like pee xD Well great, now I have that to look forward too :D I wonder does it mean something if it smells to someone like pee and to someone like poop 😂😂😂 Instead of reading tea leaves and palms, maybe someone can tell us our fortunes based on how certain hoyas smell to us. xD I am glad you are liking the content
@@BasiePlants Thank you!! Those 3 fabuloso cats have since gone over the Rainbow Bridge🌈🌈🌈Mathilde though😂lols!! Stinky either way, and yes, I'm confident someone out there has *the gift* and could tell us our fortunes based on how Hoyas smell to us! Most of my Hoya blossoms smell like tootsie rolls and caramels or flowery gardenias and jasmine. 😘😍💖
OMG, I was just thinking, I need to watch more Hoya videos today, glad my fav uploaded (you) BTW, I've become addicted to Hoya now, in part it's your fault... LOL Thank you for all the valuable Information you provide. I'm now up to 40 Hoya in my collection, how many do you have? I hope you have your best week! and good box hunting 💚😎💚
I have around 300 :) I have to update my list but I never do it :D Maybe it is a bit less, but very close I think. Hopefully not over xD I will take all the blame for your growing hoya collection :D
I lived in Iowa :) Heating doesn't concern me as much, there are plenty of plants in the room, and the room is not too big, plus I am in there all the time so we keep each other warm :D I do live with my family :)
@@BasiePlants Iowa is just up the road from us in Kansas! I thought your English was really good! Lol I hope everything goes well for you and your family this Winter! My husband is from Ireland. I know his family is being affected by everything going on. I love your channel and have learned so much about Hoyas from you! Thank you!!
Hello, have you heard of Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome? Watching you show your funky physical bending was just another reason I connect with you. Lol. You might want to look into EDS it could possibly explain some things that you may not have answers for with regard to your physical health. I have EDS and so does my Son. Keep up the amazing channel, I love your videos, especially the deep dives about certain species and regions they come from.
I do have a question! I do have a question! Do you know if Hoya wallichii and campanulata are the same? In my head they are different hoyas, but someone told me these last days that they were reclassified under the same name... And I got more confused trying to find the answer... (still think they are different hoyas, but not sure what they call wallichii and campanulata anymore😅). Help!
To my knowledge, Hoya campanulata and Hoya wallichii are separate species. Hoya cystiantha has been synonimized with Hoya campanulata, I believe, and Hoya campanulata is the correct name to use :)
The majority of all Europeans do not add milk or sugar to their coffee. My family is from France and Martinique, and I never see them ever add milk and sugar so you are not alone.😻
Very informative, however you left us with one bit of unexplained information. You said braiding your hair was more satisfying than when you received your masters - ah, therein lies the question - what subject was your masters in?
Omg! There is a person who runs a Facebook group - she lives on neglect and she’s very rude about it, it blows my mind. I bought one and when I got it home I regretted is so bad, it was so unhealthy and sad I had to cut it all up , even my husband said “that looks like crap” 🤭😂😂😂😂😂😂
Okay, so everyone's worried about electricity/light during the energy crisis, but nobody seems to care about gas/heating? Sorry, but Hoyas can do very well in complete darkness for at least a week. What they will not tolerate, though, is freezing temperatures for more than a couple of minutes.
Hoyas can do well in darkness for more than a week. I will not say for how long, everyone would think I am a monster :D But I think heating won't become a huge issue - past winters have been mild and even with minimal heating I can keep my room at around 20 degrees. Old house, thick walls + new isolation, not a big space... :)
Legend says Miro was young when he started editing this video.
which doesn't matter as now you have that lovely elven hairstyle you will never age another day!
Edit to say, i can also to the arm/hand thing.

Hello, have you heard of Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome? Watching you show your funky physical bending was just another reason I connect with you. Lol.
You might want to look into EDS it could possibly explain some things that you may not have answers for with regard to your physical health. I have EDS and so does my Son.
Keep up the amazing channel, I love your videos, especially the deep dives about certain species and regions they come from.
«my 10 favourite botanists» and «never do this when discovering hoyas» then. 🚀
Or just... Never go discovering hoyas or this will happen xD *lists plethora ways in which one can die on botanical expeditions*
Loyal fan here, love your videos! Edit to ask: are you vegan?! How do I not know this? I'm officially an even bigger(fellow vegan)fan than before 😄💚
I swear your hair grew longer after i finished watching
I started recording with short hair. 🤣
I do have a question! I do have a question! Do you know if Hoya wallichii and campanulata are the same? In my head they are different hoyas, but someone told me these last days that they were reclassified under the same name... And I got more confused trying to find the answer... (still think they are different hoyas, but not sure what they call wallichii and campanulata anymore😅). Help!
To my knowledge, Hoya campanulata and Hoya wallichii are separate species. Hoya cystiantha has been synonimized with Hoya campanulata, I believe, and Hoya campanulata is the correct name to use :)

Hours tending your plants 20hrs coffee making 1:30 minutes 😂😂😂
The majority of all Europeans do not add milk or sugar to their coffee. My family is from France and Martinique, and I never see them ever add milk and sugar so you are not alone.😻
What is your Masters in?😎👻
Architecture :)
@@BasiePlants i was going to ask the same question..Architecture is something i never expected...very unique and cool!
Also you are known as double jointed...I use to wish I was double jointed you guys can twist your bodies which is very cool❤
Omgggg miro your arm! Hahahahh
I am sooooorrry!
Hi! How do I send you some money? I dont have much but I want to support you.. you are my Hoya-angel 😊
Very informative, however you left us with one bit of unexplained information. You said braiding your hair was more satisfying than when you received your masters - ah, therein lies the question - what subject was your masters in?
I have a Master’s degree in architecture :)
@@BasiePlants FANTASTIC! I wish you much success in that field.
😂🥰
I lk hanging out w you.
Omg! There is a person who runs a Facebook group - she lives on neglect and she’s very rude about it, it blows my mind. I bought one and when I got it home I regretted is so bad, it was so unhealthy and sad I had to cut it all up , even my husband said “that looks like crap” 🤭😂😂😂😂😂😂
Oh I feel you! I had a similar experience. 😁
Okay, so everyone's worried about electricity/light during the energy crisis, but nobody seems to care about gas/heating? Sorry, but Hoyas can do very well in complete darkness for at least a week. What they will not tolerate, though, is freezing temperatures for more than a couple of minutes.
Hoyas can do well in darkness for more than a week. I will not say for how long, everyone would think I am a monster :D But I think heating won't become a huge issue - past winters have been mild and even with minimal heating I can keep my room at around 20 degrees. Old house, thick walls + new isolation, not a big space... :)
