What hardiness zone are you in btw? I'm in a 6a zone and those are mostly zone 10 plants so I wonder if they'd struggle because of that alone if I got them. Asking because if you're zone 10 or closer to it then it makes sense that they'd thrive n I wanted to buy a macro and try again with another krohniana silver (had one before and it hated life)
My new guinea ghost grows like a weed. Just propergated it. Very thirsty plant and loves light. Very interesting video. Any tips for a sulawesi? the new leaves are thin and crinkled. Not like the original leaf which is a dinner plate type.☁😶🌫🌨🌩⛅
I have the SAME MUSHROOM POT!! HOME SENSE!! LOL .... I also commented a while back that I have the framed beetle print! So funny .... same exact taste ..... lol .... right now I've been sculpting some mushroom wall art and plant pots. I'm so picky with pottery for my plants that I decided to purchase the gray toned terracotta pots and sculpt designs with mushrooms, insects, moss etc. on them! Once I'm finished I would love to send you one!
Okay, so we might be the same person. David just bought me supplies yesterday to start painting mushrooms and insects onto terracotta pots! What are you using to sculpt?! Are you on Instagram?
@@jaclynns.jungle I'm using sculpey clay with clay adhesive to sculpt the mushrooms and moths etc. Or air dry clay with a good craft glue. Air dry is a little easier since there's no baking involved. Depends on your crafting style. I like both types for different reasons. With the backable scupley.... Since terracotta can take heat I sculpt on the pot and bake it at 275 for 20 minutes. I haven't painted on pots yet, but I want to! I don't have an instagram yet, but I'm going to make one when I have the pots finished. . I work in sections because the terracotta absorbs the glue. So I make the mushrooms, bake them alone, and then I attach them with some fresh clay and the sculpy adhesive, then bake that ... I continue those steps till I feel the pot is complete. You can also just buy cute clay molds for faster turnover. I'll use the clay mold of choice, and place the clay piece on the pot .... place the pot sideways in the oven so the design takes on the curve of the pot .... then when it's done I use super glue to attach it. All kinds of options! Just takes experimenting!
I have a krohniana black that gave me so many problems. However, just when i was about to toss it, it decided to become a happy plant and is beautiful now!🎉
I wonder if there are some clones with bad genetics - I bought my Lisa in a 1 inch pot with about 6 leaves. Now she’s 2.5 feet tall with lots of gorgeous leaves! Or is mine a fake 😂
☁️🌥⛅️🌤🌩 well just dang!! I'm new to Hoya, under a year, and have ALL FIVE!! I'm limited to selection locally and too nervous to ship. Thanks for giving alternatives IF eventially mine all go south!! My Black margin and Albomarginata both finally have gaven me a new leaf, and I attribute that to Super Elixer!! Thanks ❤
OMG, krohniana silver, tell me about it. Last time my husband and I went to Des Moines before he died, we bought a krohniana silver and a curtisii. The curtisii was supposed to be the difficult plant. Hung it in a south window and it's been killing it. Just slaying. But the krohniana..... it had root rot and instantly the leaves turned into withered floppy bendy paper. I tried to wait it out, to give the roots time to re-establish, but after 4 months I repotted it in my own soil mix. The leaves have finally become firm and I think the plant is going to make it, but for crying out loud. What a diva.
Do you think it could be that the plant maybe had bad roots when you bought it? My krohniana super silver is doing well since I got it back in April. The curtisii has yellowing young leaves. I've put it directly in front of my sansi lights and a lot of humidity and now it's doing better.
According to Summer Rayne Oakes, the macrophylla is appreciates more sweet/alkaline soil. She adds crushed egg shell/ oyster shell and when i tried that my plant did much better. Also, living in CT I have more acidic well water (5.5 ph) which I’m sure doesn’t help.
@@jaclynns.jungle Thank you! I don't have space for a large deliciosa, but will look for the video to see if you suggested a plant with "the look" without the size. I have Rhaphidophora tetrasperma and M. Adansonii, but I'm sure there are others.
I hope I don’t jinx myself, but my Hoya Australis Lisa and Latifolia Macrophylla are doing fine! The Macrophylla is a little wild and outgrowing the small bathroom window where it is hanging. Most of my Hoya seem to love being outside in a semi-shady spot, so maybe they enjoy the NW Florida climate. The only one I struggle with is the variegated Hoya rope. I can’t get the watering right. It looks dry or mushy and doesn’t grow. Maybe I should just stick it outside, too! 🌥️⛈️
Lisa just keeps growing so quickly and also krohniana that I can’t keep up. All the plants you mentioned including the macrophylla and heuchkeliana I have the opposite experience. You found the heuchkeliana easier which I find not true. It’s only easier after it established but rooting could be a mess
I love HOYA videos! And I love that my pop ad before the show starts is my man, BARACK, shilling for Joe and Kamala! GO BLUE! GO Jaclynn! Can you tell us where your shelves are from in the background? I love your set up! Thank you!
Wow, you hit the nail(s) on the head. My Krohniana black and splash are doing well. NOT my Kroh. Eskimo!! Think it's done for! Also my Hoya Rosita has struggled for months! Was thinking of buying a larger one. My Wayettii is doing well and I love it's variegation! I seem to have more issues with all the smaller, thinner leafed Hoyas. Guess I'm learning the hard way! Trial and error! My main exception is my Hoya macrophylla albo-marginata. It has been awesome and Ive had it about a year. 🤞🤞 Thanks for the tips on "instead ofs!". I recently got the Hoya Grey Ghost two- leaf rooted starter plant. Hope it makes it. I have Weimaraner dogs and they are known as Grey Ghosts!! 😂❤❤❤❤
My macrophylla has been a rollercoaster. When I bought it I kept it outside for a couple weeks because the weather was nice, and it grew! Brought it inside - stopped growing for months. Moved it into semi hydro. Roots died. Regrew the roots in water and put in Pon again - Roots died. Now, I have it in just water again and am thinking I might have to just keep totally hydro: it's grown a huge root ball, a runner and multiple leaves, just in water.
I have the same issues with Australis Lisa. I'm on my third now, and after losing leaves to mush, it's now putting out new growth. 🤷♀️ In exasperation, I did buy a no-name green Australis. It is growing like a weed even with mealybugs....As for alternatives to Lisa, in leaf size and similar inner variegation, I recommend Obovota variegated or H. Polyneura inner variegated; for smaller leaves, H. walliniana, H. Dennisii frida, H. Bella Lida Buis, H. Lacunosa queen midori..... For Verticillata Black Margin alternatives, I suggest H. Nathalie, H. Vittelina, and H. MA20. .... For silver leaf alternatives, I suggest H. Pubicalyx pink silver ghost, or any of the silver-leaved H. Lacunosas.... I love, love fuzzy hoyas! I have about 15 now. They're all doing well. I got my madulidii with very few leaves on it. I immediately snipped and propagated them in a humidity dome above a heat mat. I remove the dome during the day. This method has saved many of my plants. I think the heat mat makes a huge difference.
I went crazy buying Hoyas during the pandemic. After a while I got tired of some of them or they didn’t do well in my care. I gave them to my sister. I have killed Rotundiflora and the Australis Lisa.
I just restarted my Lisa because of root rot. I love the Lisa look, but also if none of the cuttings root and grow well I don’t think I’ll be mad. 😂 I love my super silver though. It seems to be doing well for me. I hope it continues because I think they’re really pretty.
I don't like the shape of the NGG leaves - it reminds me of those plastic ficus trees they sell at places like Michaels. Ha ha! (I worked at Michael's in high school and still have PTSD surrounding it and them.) For silver leafed hoyas, I like the Pubicalyx Pink Silver Ghost.
Hoya loves super well drained soil. Most of your no buy list are doing well with me in my zone 10. I water my hoya once a week in summer and once in other week during cool seasons.
I like to think of myself as a pretty proficient plant mom - Hoyas scare me all I think of is parasites. Do you think I can overcome this with extensive therapy?
I am wondering if you are struggling with these hoyas because of rotts/pots issue. I have each of them and except if I water them in winter they are no brainer for me. I am cultivating them in 3d printed pot that are more like basket which let the air flow in the soil. They dry quite quickly but not to munch and they grow like weed if the weather is hot enought. Anyway very interesting video!
There are few plants that don't adjust well in my environment, monsteras, alocasias and especially cat palms. Love them all but my environment doesn't have the regulated conditions they thrive in.
I have had my krohniana silver for about a year and a half and she's still thriving! I don't know how I lucked out finding one that was already so established and large (In a 6 inch hanging pot with 2-3 feet of growth hanging down). She's constantly throwing out blooms and I do feel like I need to water her more than my other hoya but she seems happy. Even her cuttings that I give away are still going strong! So maybe the trick is getting one that is already a beast and well established? My macrophylla also grows great for me and I don't treat her any different from the other hoya. I got her with only 2 or 3 leaves and now she's covered in growth and tendrils and seems to be always producing a new leaf or two when I check on her. Maybe my conditions are just prime for the more difficult hoya or I'm just lucky and get the good specimens 🤷♀
Bummer I just bought the H Macrophylla albomarginata & the H Kroniana eskimo. Yes, please do lots more videos like this one. Loved the concept & the content. Love your vibes! 😊
So funny- all the ones you say you can’t grow except the New Guinea Ghost (which I don’t have) are doing great for me and I would list them as my favorites!! There are some plants though that I also just can’t grow either! Thanks for your channel- love your content!
Ahh yes, I have the same experience with Krohniana silver! 😭 I have killed several of them, and it makes me so sad, because they are so gorgeous! I have found a compromise, with the lacunosa leopard skin! Such an easy going plant, and it's very silvery! 😍
Hi Jaclynn, oh gosh I really love so many Hoya. I had a Hoya australis lisa and it started so beautiful then died on me and I still might want to get another one, I am still dealing with those stupid mealy bugs, they are dieing finally and my Hoya are coming back. I think I will look for those Hoya you were telling us about that are good ones to get. You showed some really beautiful Hoya. Thanks so much again for another wonderful video, have a blessed and beautiful day sending love and hugs, bye!! 💜💜💜
I agree with you. I've had 2 latifolia pot of gold, and both died. I have latifolia albo- marginata, and it's struggling. I'm not sure why it's struggling, but I refuse to purchase anymore. I'm done also.😅
It'd be useful to say the conditions you've tried the plants in :) I've comin to realixe my home doesn't do well for a lot of aroids -- too cold. We just had an unusual three day, officially labled heat wave -- alerts sent out, public pools made free, etc. Max temp iirc: 84 degrees lol. Lotta people don't have AC so it was an actual threat Our max temps are usually 50s-60sF year round. I thought I just sucked with some plants -- which is still likely true tho, but some just need higher temps to thrive. My lisa is alive but just doesn't grow much. Mealies love her and her less variegated sister, more then other hoyas.
☁️ I like that you offer alternatives. I have struggled with Krohniana Black, Lacunosa Mint and Parviflora. There always comes a time when the leaves become soft/limp and I try to figure out if it’s dry or rot or dry rot! 😂 It’s so annoying. I move them to another substrate - fluval, pon or moss - and they usually die. I’m not sure if trying a larger specimen will help or not. If the ones I currently am nursing die, I’m done.
The Macrophylla has been one of my easiest to grow ever. It grows like weeds. I have several and they are huge. They all started off as baby plants with very little foliage. I wish I had some tips for you but I don’t do much but monitor for pest and water when dry. And I fertilize when I water. I keep the largest one in a window with bright light. It’s HUGE. I’m sorry you struggle with that one. 🥴
I'd say hydro is an answer. I have all of those hoyas, they're thriving and I don't have much knowledge about plants so it's not me. I never really thought there are "hard" hoyas
I've honestly only had issues with the queen Anthurium! So I've bought all the other long leaf types instead and some hybrids! I'm not sure what ambient humidity would be exactly, but I grow all of mine in 60-80% I need more time to grow them before I can say what I think is more difficult than others. But usually if you can find a hybrid of the more finicky types, you'll be totally fine! 🩷
The NGG, from what my plant peeps have told me, is a very thirsty plant and generally does best in semi-hydro. Mine died so I can’t confirm, but that seems to be the consensus with all my local hoya heads.
☁️ Really liking these don’t buy/try this instead videos… my black margin definitely bit the dust and I’ve wanted a macrophylla albo marginata. Not anymore! Since you mentioned thin leaved Hoya being problematic, do you have any experience with the polyneura?? That’s also been a wishlist plant. 🫣
Hi Jaclynn, Loved this Hoya video as well as the alternatives you suggested! Very enjoyable to watch , thank you. Your Hoya are gorgeous. I appreciate your suggestion not to sleep on the Carmosa Nova Ghost. I plan to order this one and I look forward to growing her. Take care! ⛅️☁️☁️. 👌🪴🥰
@@jaclynns.jungle I’m really looking forward to growing her. I’m encouraged by your optimistic view of her growth habits. Thank you for sharing. Happy growing to all of us! 👌🪴🥰
Love my lisa, macro, and silver kro 🤷♀️ to each their own AND depends on environment! 😘

I have the black margin. It’s doing well for me.
I had one Hoya Lisa that I absolutely STRUGGLED with! Then I bought another and she grows constantly and is one of my easiest plants!
Agree 100 percent about the Australis Lisa. Couldn’t get it to grow, couldn’t get it to sun stress. Just a total dud for me
Such a disappointment
I wonder if there are some clones with bad genetics - I bought my Lisa in a 1 inch pot with about 6 leaves. Now she’s 2.5 feet tall with lots of gorgeous leaves! Or is mine a fake 😂
I feel so validated in my feelings for the Lisa. That girl is drama all the time. ⛅️☁️🌧️

Thank you for this! I definitely just added all the silvery hoyas to my wish list 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
I actually feel the same about all the hoyas you described! They just don't work for me, but thanks for the alternatives! ☁️☁️☁️☁️
☁️ loved the video, though I have to say that I love my Hoya macrophila and Australis Lisa.

Bahaha also with the Hoya "Karen". I do fine with the non variegated, but the Lisa just dies every single time 🤦🏼♀️
she just melts away every time -__-
@@jaclynns.jungle I just don't understand why!?
I keep rotting krohniana silvers too. I wish i could keep it alive😢

Not me who just ordered khroniana from palmstreet 🤦🏻♀️
I have two on this list in the mail on their way to me 🙃
I genuinely hope you're one of those people who is good at growing them 🤣
I’ve tried and failed on the first four you talked about! So nice to know I’m not alone!
I had a khroniana before. It died
Not surprised 😅
Love that beautiful anthurium in the background❤❤❤
I agree with you. I've had 2 latifolia pot of gold, and both died. I have latifolia albo- marginata, and it's struggling. I'm not sure why it's struggling, but I refuse to purchase anymore. I'm done also.😅
I'm so over it lol I had pot of gold too and it just never grew nicely for me
It'd be useful to say the conditions you've tried the plants in :)
I've comin to realixe my home doesn't do well for a lot of aroids -- too cold. We just had an unusual three day, officially labled heat wave -- alerts sent out, public pools made free, etc. Max temp iirc: 84 degrees lol.

I thought I just sucked with some plants -- which is still likely true tho, but some just need higher temps to thrive.

That's so weird, my Macrophylla Varigatta is growing like crazy for me and blooms all the time. Bought it from Marketplace with 3 leaves 🧡🌿
Mine used to do well for a while, then decline. Do well, then decline again. It was always a rocky road for us lol
@@jaclynns.jungleI have mine in a 3.5 inch terracotta pot. My only hoya in that. I don't know if that makes a difference
One that I've had a hard time growing is the hoya Carnosa Compacta variegated. I'm on my second plant and it isn't looking good.
That's definitely one that I'll never buy again
Can you do one like this one but for anthurium you have tried and found better ones that look similar? Maybe focus on ambient humidity ones 👀
I've honestly only had issues with the queen Anthurium! So I've bought all the other long leaf types instead and some hybrids! I'm not sure what ambient humidity would be exactly, but I grow all of mine in 60-80%
I need more time to grow them before I can say what I think is more difficult than others. But usually if you can find a hybrid of the more finicky types, you'll be totally fine! 🩷
@Jaclynn Hi I am new to your channel and it is helping me decide on which Hoyas I should buy or not. Thanks ❤
I'm happy to help! 😊
Loved this video.
The NGG, from what my plant peeps have told me, is a very thirsty plant and generally does best in semi-hydro. Mine died so I can’t confirm, but that seems to be the consensus with all my local hoya heads.
When I moved mine to pon, it took off like crazy.. Need to put it on a trellis now - great suggestion for this one
I have a macrophylla pot of gold and it's a diva, always dropping off new leaves it starts.
Mine finally kicked the bucket after a few years of doing NOTHING 🙄
Can you tell me were you got your shelves? Thank you!❤😊❤
IKEA, they're called vittsjo
#1 and #3😡🤬😡‼️

Really liking these don’t buy/try this instead videos… my black margin definitely bit the dust and I’ve wanted a macrophylla albo marginata. Not anymore! Since you mentioned thin leaved Hoya being problematic, do you have any experience with the polyneura?? That’s also been a wishlist plant. 🫣
It's funny how I managed to have everyone that was on ur do not buy list 🤣 what's the chances of that 😲
Hahaha, they're pretty common ones 🤣
