- In this Week’s End video - 4 More Bloomers and a Newbie - we’re taking a look at four more plants that have all started to bloom since the last video, and a Hoya that’s new to the collection. The plants blooming this week are Hoya finlaysonii ‘Chicken Farm’, Hoya merrillii, Hoya retusa, Dischidia ruscifolia, and the new one is Hoya madulidii. I’m very excited to see all of these plants blooming at the same time, and some of them are blooming for the first time.

Thanks to Fern @WildFern for introducing me to Chicken Farm.
Thanks to Summer Rayne Oakes @SummerRayneOakes, well, for everything.

Watching from the shower. I just love hoya talk in the shower..
Well, that's probably a first, but yeah, whatever works. From the shower or from the sofa, I do appreciate the watch, and the comment. Thanks.
I purchased a chicken farm early this year. She's doing great! Leaves so cardboard hard. I can't wait to see a bloom from it! My 3 year old merrillii had 2 fat peach hued leaves and about 3 green slimmer leaves. Unfortunately the big leaves yellowed and died but the newer leaves are not as big as the older leaves and is in a South facing window. Impatiently waiting for the leaves to get wider. My retusa I had at least 3 years and it's suddenly vining out so much that I have to get it to trail along the window grid until I get a hanging pot. The unique varieties in the hoya fam is so amazing! Retusa like linearis are so cute. One free cutting of dischidia million hearts is now a full plant. So pretty. Thanks so much for sharing. Thoroughly enjoyed💚 Dee, NY
Dee - Thanks, again. The varieties of Hoya are staggering, and there really is something that will intrigue most anyone. So nice to hear about how your plants are doing, what fun. Thanks for watching and sharing your eperiences.
That's the first chicken farm I've seen that looks 100% healthy
Thanks. Wild Fern's is the only other one I've really seen online. I find it to be a really easy plant, but maybe I'm just lucky. Thanks again for watching and the compliment.
Dischidia variegated leaves I have and love. Lately, she's grown quite a bit. I also have and love the Ovata. I found those cute little pots that you have some of your trailing plants with the self watering and ability to hang on the wall. They're great!
Those wall-mount self-watering pots are great, and help make great use of space. As you can tell, I have a few of them. Thanks.
@@PlantedInRI Thank you! Have a great weekend
Great content and many thanks for sharing your experiences with each Hoya! I bought my first Retusa in a four inch pot which was pretty sparse but I knew he would fill in . He made me laugh due to his “bad hair day” appearance. 😊. I love the Retusa and eyeryone is correct in that the Retusa doesn’t typically look that good in the nurseries or the shops. I bought mine for what I knew he could be and fortunately he didn’t let me down! Happy growing. 👌🪴🥰
H retusa is definately one of the "fun" ones. Thanks for watching and for sharing your experiences.
That Merrillii is beautiful 😍
He's one of my favorites. Thanks, as always,
I’m so glad I bought a Retusa after seeing yours👏👏 Mine is still a little baby 🍸🍸🇳🇿
It's such a fun plant. It won't take long before it turns into a monster. Good luck with it. Thanks for watching and your comment.
I have heard that Hoya Retusa's were hard to bloom. I just received mine this week. Just a wee little thing. Very excited to see what this will do for me. I
Thanks for watching and adding your comment. Once I got it settled and it started getting the moisture it wanted, it seems willing to bloom. Good luck with yours.
Until now I’ve never seen a dischidia flower.❤
Once they get settled, and get regular moisture, they bloom readily - though it can be easy to miss those tiny blooms. Thanks for watching and for your comment.
@@PlantedInRI I like how you point out that they like ‘Settle in” I’m thinking that might be important. Do you grow most of your Hoyas in self watering pots? And could you do a show that features trailing Hoyas? I’m finding the trailing Hoyas are easier to manage than the climbers and twining-types! Thx Bryan ( Just curious, Do you have a Patreon or OF or something like that?)
Bryan - Thanks for your reply.
Most plants will take some time to adjust to a new environment, and if you've repotted, the roots will need time to re-establish. Because I grow many of my Hoyas in pon-ish, I remove virtually all of the substrate they were in. There is always some root damage, and they take a bit of time to recover. Yes, I grow almost all of my Hoyas in self-watering pots. Most of them seem to like that set-up.
The majority of my trailing plants are H lacunosa, so most were featured in my "Lotta Lacunosa" video. I don't find much difference between the care of trailing Hoyas and climbers, for me it's a space issue. I've got a lot of Hoyas and climbing seems to suit my situation, but there will usually be some trailers in most videos.
I don't have a Patreon account, but I'm looking into a "Buy Me A Coffee" page - though in my case it would be "Buy Me A Hoya". It may allow me to sell cuttings without all of the hassle of setting up a store.
Thanks again for watching and adding your comments.
@@PlantedInRI I ❤️ the Buy Me a Coffee idea and exploring ways to sell cuttings. One more question. Do you give any of your Hoyas an outdoor summer vacation?
A few of the hardier Hoyas move out to "The Conservatory" (my three-season room) for the summer. It's still dropping into the 50s overnight here sometimes and that's a bit too cool for most of them, so they stay in the Plant Room year 'round. Thanks for asking.
I have to say I enjoy your videos ❤ I enjoy looking at all of your beautiful Hoyas 😍 it's so fun to watch them grow and exciting to watch the blooms . One day I will have a collection like yours.😊
Thanks for watching and for the compliments. Watching your Hoyas grow, and then bloom for the first time, is a simple pleasure.
you may already know this, but depending on what kind of camera you have, you can set it to ‘product showcase’ and it will focus when you put something near the camera.
🙂💚🪴
Thanks, I do appreciate all the helpful suggestions. I'm still working through all the settings for this new camera. 'Product Showcase' seems to work for the 'product', but sometimes it doesn't find me again. I'm practicing some more this weekend, so I'll figure it out. Thanks for watching and adding your suggestion.
Liked your snazzy music this episode. I have these plants and love them too!
Thanks, something a little upbeat, for the Week's End. Thanks for your watch and adding to the comments.
I have been struggling with my dischidias too. Thank you for sharing your mix and dischidia mix.
Keep in mind that Dischidia, like Hoyas, are epiphytes, so they're going to want something more airy and self-watering pots really help. Thanks for watching and adding your comment.
Love the retusa. That is one I got a year ago and it had spider mites and it just wouldn’t grow but kept dying off. No pest spray worked until I found sulfur liquid spray. So the last couple months I’ve been doing sulfur and removing any infected leaves and I think the pests are almost gone as it has finally started growing
Spider mites are evil, and they can be determined pests. I'm glad to hear your H retusa is starting to grow. Good luck with it. Thanks for watching and sharing your experience.
Another choice video! I'm always amazed at the variety in hoyas' appearance, but so many look "scraggly". In some, their leaf node distance is ENORMOUS. Is there any cultivation technique that will reduce their leggy appearance?
More light 👍
Thanks. As Heather suggested, sometimes more light can help with that, but some species just have large internodal spacing. It's why folks sometimes put multiple cuttings in one pot, to make the plant seem more lush. All you can do is try. Thanks for watching and asking your question.
Great video! Love your content keep at it!
Thanks for the compliment, for watching, and for leaving a comment.
Nice plants. I may have to get a H. retusa
Oh you do, you do. See, I am a bad influence. It's a very fun plant and you will enjoy it. Thanks for watching and your comment.
Like away s great photography. I have Hoya Refusal and it is not as big as yours. It is still in the 4 inch that I bought it in. I will get to repot one days of these. It's a gorgeous plant. It was flowing since February. Did any of the Dischidia ever flower for you?
Thank you. I've got four Dischidia right now, two of them flower regularly - the D ruscifolia and a D obovata. The other two are relatively new, so not yet, but they will. Thanks for watching and for your comment.
Pull back a bit from camera, and it will focus, love your Hoyas!!! 🌿💚🍃💚🌱💚
Thanks for the tip!
I'm going to make my chicken farm watch this video. It just gave me 1 leaf after I don't know how long. 🤨🤔
Sometimes you just have to sit them down in front of the screen and show them what your expectations are, give them inspiration. Thanks for watching.
You need to pull back from the camera! your picture is out of focus! But I love your Hoyas!
Thanks for the suggestion, I'm working on it. Thank you for watching and adding your suggestion.
Nice content, thank you, but a few too many commercials for my time. :-(
Thanks for watching and adding your comment. Unfortunately, I have no control over the number of commercials, that's all in RUclips's hands. I don't get any commission on them or have any say. YT puts ads where people are watching, which I take as a sort-of compliment, but yeah, I get it. Thanks again.
Pull back a bit from camera, and it will focus, love your Hoyas!!! 🌿💚🍃💚🌱💚
Cindy - Thanks for the suggestion, I'm still trying to figure out the best settings, but with luck I'm getting closer. Thanks for watching and offering your suggestion.
