Oh my what a long video. You spoil us!
betsy begonia who?? I only know hetsy hoya 😂
From my understanding no plant actually benefits from being truly root bound, I think the concept came from the idea that a stressed plant wants to survive and as a half ditched effort will flower in order go to seed. This I think happens out in nature but our houseplants are typically grown in nurseries and wont behave the same. That being said there are many many many houseplants that do prefer to be somewhat "pot" bound, meaning they prefer to fit snuggly in a pot as opposed to having lots of space in the pot but without being suffocated like a "root" bound plant. I really hope that made sense. Your Hoyas are stunning btw! Thank you for sharing! You really are fun to watch!
Sara that’s a great explanation. Thank you!
Wow, what a beautiful collection. Every time I see a new hoya I pick it up. I'm so in love with them all. You never fail at making me smile. Thanks so much for that. Much love and many blessings.
Hi Betsy! Do NOT get rid off the shelving!!! Paint them all white and you will have new units!! =D It's going to make a nice contrast with the pots and the greenery.
Your begonia is saying, "Well, the channel is called Betsy Begonia not Betsy Hoya." 😂 Your cat has condo in the corner there!🏠🐈 Lovely hoya collection and home! 🌿💚
I love that you often know the history of a plant, or interesting facts about certain species. I’d love to see a video where you talk about interesting facts that you’ve learned through research. An example being that I learned from you why alocasia amazonica is named that, despite not having anything to do with the Amazon.
I would also really enjoy that video if you make it!!
since I didn't watch that video or I miss that or I forgot about it and need reminded about how the alocasia Amazonian got its name even though it didn't grow in the Amazon Please please please
Check out the full size Vittjsö ikea shelfs. Simple, smart and actually quite nice looking! Perfect for flower's in my mind cuz of some glass and some all white shelving. I love love love mine 😍
Seconded! My fiancé and I just got one in white, and it is soooooooo gorgeous.
It’s on my wishlist!
ummmm I don’t know what youre talking about.... those shelves are ADORABLE
I watch a bit of Summer Rayne Oaks and she describes hoyas as "liking to be root bound" because most are epiphytes so they end up living in rocky crags or the sorts with little soil. I don't have evidence either but her reasoning is enough for me!
I always like your plant tours/updates. I may actually have to break down and obtain a hoya now.
I thought to myself this morning... It would be really great if her video was uploaded today... And here. It. Is. 😍💚
Hi Betsy! How are you?
HOYA-O-BOYA!
Thanks for sharing all your Hoyas. AWESOME!
I gave gotten a lot of small Hoya non-rooted cuttings. I propagated them in water. Took a long time, but 100% successful. They are really growing very well this summer.
I went to Lowe's last week and bought Golden, Neon and Cebu Blue Pothos. Gorgeous, huge, full hanging baskets. This week I bought a Hoya Rubra. It too is G,H,F hanging basket.
Enjoy!

Great video! I have a hoya carnosa splash that I got as a cutting 17 years ago it started blooming in year 5 (2003) and has bloomed every year since from May to October. The only reason I repotted it this year (March 2020) was, 6 older leaves turned yellow at the same time. It has 30 peduncles and counting.
I realise that you cannot see the plant, I can send a picture, but root bound (for me) is the way to go if you want it to produce lots of leaves and flower consistently.
Well aren't you an absolute delight!
I'm new here and pretty new to Hoyas, and I had also heard about Hoyas needing to be root bound to flower. When I got mine as a 6 leaf cutting, I planted it into a decent sized pot (10") for its size and stuck it in the brightest indirect light in my house. It grew a TON over one year, increasing its size by at least 5x. When it was about 2 years old it gave me a single flower cluster. Fast forward one more year to this spring and it has exploded with flowers. Over 30 flower peduncles.
So all in all, I don't believe it is root bound, I still water it as often as I always have and it isn't showing any signs of being root bound. I think it would have taken longer than 3 years for a 6 leaf cutting to outgrow a 10" pot. But maybe I am wrong, it is a monster plant now. Haha
My H serpens wasn't growing either. It's an 'aquarium' plant and does well in extra humidity -someone told me- so I put it in my hot box and in less than two weeks I've got node action!
@thegazette that’s what I was going to say. I have friends who’s distichia were suffering and did the same thing and they took off.
you could get a glass dome for the serpens to keep humidity in during the summer i am about to do that with my peperomia prostrata he hasnt been happy with me
I also agree about the rootbound theory. I think it has more to do with water and root health. Rootbound plants tend to dry out faster and most plant keepers tend to overwater. This happens even more with hoya since folks tend to use regular potting soil with them. I repotted mine this year in better media and a couple plants that have been growing peduncles with no flowers bloomed for the first time!
You are a breath of fresh air. So interesting. You have a massive collection of hoyas!
Thank you for the tour! It was very interesting. Your enthusiasm is really contagious!
My theory on the roots of Hoya is that they prefer to be in humid AIR, because that is where they naturally grow generally speaking, in the air on a tree in a humid climate.
Propagating in a very humid and warm environment works very well, even without putting a cutting in a medium or water. Just warm and humid air is enough, or at least that is my experience. So because we do not have such a climate in the Netherlands, I like to create this for them in a pot. I think the most important is that there is there is AIR in the pot with high humidity. So vaporized water, not water as such. Water in fluid form can rot the roots more easy. As long as it is humid air that is around the roots, the Hoya feels at home. By putting bark and perlite in the medium, it creates air pockets that are humid, not a water reservoir. I hope I am making sense :)
I agree that Hoya do not necessarily prefer being rootbound, allthough I do think they can tolerate it well. We repotted my moms Hoya Carnosa of over 30 years old the other day. It was completely root bound and still did fairly well. We now put it in a bigger pot on a medium of bark, potting soil and perlite. I am so curious to see how it will do!
I think Hoya like to have a lot of space around the roots, for the same reason, that they can be in vaporized water that is in between the medium. The more the better :) I put my Hoya in orchid pots, which are transparant so it is easy for me to see if they are still humid or if they like a rinse :)
I couldn’t wait to watch this when I got home from work! What a plantastic video 🌱 you’re a hoot!
Hoya my gosh ! So happy for a nice long video on Hoyas from you !! Doing happy dance in Kansas USA! Toto is to hot to dance with me 😉😆... sorry had to do the Oz thing ! Lol ! Added 2 more Hoyas to my I must HAVE ONE list !
I love that you love that we leave comments.
I do! 💚
I audibly said "YES!" when I saw this video! 😄
I feel the same way you feel about the "root bound" theory. My bella and pubicalix have bloomed and are not root bound at all. There is very popular orchid channel on here who also states it's not true. Anywho love the tour and I'm jealous of your Australis! It's so beautiful 😍💕
Love your videos, you are so emphatic and your voice is so soothing and enjoyable. Thanks
Wow! Talking about your favorite Hoya's really makes your eyelashes curl up!
Can you believe that i'm really struggling in the Netherlands to find any Hoya in a regular flowershop? This week i'm gonna visit a gardencenter and if they don't have any, i'm gonna order one(very expensive) online. All i want is a simple Hoya Carnosa, that shouldn't be so difficult!
Plantanica.se!
@@betsybegonia Thanks! But i dunno, getting them all the way from Sweden? There must be an easier way...
@@benwinkel They arrive quickly in my experience. I haven't ordered from Plantanica but Sweden is in the EU. It's not so far. 😂
@@betsybegonia I once ordered some citrus plants from the UK and that took month's! :( And that was long before brexit...
Ben Canada is exactly the same in regards to being a hoya desert
Lovely collection. Here in Trinidad it's difficult to aquire hoyas, but I'm learning a lot from your videos.
Amazing hoya collection! You are so funny too!
people always say hoyas are a slippery slope and i thought i was safe from said slope (I only have a crimson princess) but then i remembered that the day i bought my crimson princess I also saw a variegated hoya carnosa compacta and i haven't been able to stop thinking about that hoya since I saw it. It's been like 6 months. it's my whole wish list.
Okay, if you didn't "pop" out with a Hoya in your hands, you must have arrived with a begonia. ;-) Oh, would you please tell me where I might find one of those Hoya Monsteras? You're a delight.
I loooovvvvveeedddd this. I've been looking into Hoyas and which I wanted so thanksss
Love your collection! I just ordered a Hoya Fungii as my first Hoya. I’m so excited!
Love your representation! Like that you research.. Too many “plant experts” do not ...
Hi Betsy! You have a great Hoya collection. It's so nice that you give all of the names. I've had a beautiful Hoya for years that started out as cuttings from my Mom and Sister and I didn't know what it was. Now, I believe, it is a Hoya Carnosa. It bloomed for me twice, but hasn't bloomed again in over a year and it's in the same spot. When it first bloomed it was still in water propagation. I love your Hoya Bella, david cummingii and lacunosa for their flowering abilities. I'd really like to find them. I'm more into the foliage, too, but flowers are a bonus! It was fun seeing a quick look at your living room, kitchen and terrace. It appears that your veranda is a really nice size. I'd love to see a tour of all of your plants, living quarters and terrace. I loved this longer video and would watch anything that you want to upload! You're so much fun to watch! Thank you for sharing!
I do kinda support the theory of plants (not all but many, including Hoya) producing bloom whenever they are root boud, or in generally bad conditions, I see it quite often in Orchids.
My Mum have a Pink Princess that was like, 8 or 9 years old, never repotted, it was dyyyyingggg, leaves turning yellow, root bound to hell and back, BUT it was blooming like crazy! I decided to save it, it took me over an hour to free the roots, they were like solid wood at this point. But I got in a new and bigger pot with new nice soil, aaand it hasn't bloomed since... it's producing massive amount of new growth, and trailing all over the place and is looking very healthy.
Plants will produce flowers in a last ditch effort to spread and multiply before dying completely. So I do believe Hoyas will produce more bloom by being root bound, but they do not LIKE being root boud and could die after too much time.
Just my opinion and experience from having had hoyas for several years.
Love the videos! keep
Thank you for the lovely tour of hoyas... Something that would watch again and again and again 💚💚😇😇
Hoya Boya!! you have an amazing Hoya collection, I only have four so far, Hoya Obovata, Hoya Carnosa, Hindu Rope and Hoya Curtisii, when I find one if it's not too expensive I snatch it up. Thank you so much for sharing, thanks you for your humor I enjoy it so much, I jut love you and your channel so much. Have a great week, bye for now.
Thanks so much Holly. You have a great week too.
I just love you and your hoya collection. New subscriber here. Keep making us laugh
I couldn't wait to get off work, come home, pour a glass of wine, eat cheese and pretzels, and WATCH THIS VIDEO!!!
Loved this haul, glad I came across your channel. I will binge watch all your videos. I live in the states and don't have air condition and refuse to get it, I prefer to open the windows or take cold shower when it gets to hot.
Ohhh wow!! GIRL!!!! I love your collection SO BEAUTIFUL! Thank you so much for sharing this! I have had one Hoya for about a year and I love it!
Your Hoya Bella is beautiful!!!
I've heard withholding the water can encourage blooming too; i.e. stretching it out a week or two past when you would normally water but who knows...
Absolutely beautiful Hoyas.. love, love, love! I recently tried my hand at caring for a few Hoya's. Purchased the hoya carnosa rubra (krimson princess) and hoya wayetii, actually found the princess at 'Lowes'; it was the last one so I figured why not! I watch Betsy Begonia enough I'll just follow her techniques, lol :) Thanks for another informative and funny vid..
I'm glad at least a few from that Hoya haul made it! Esp the sunrise, love that lil guy
I wish to someday be on this level of Hoya obsession ❤️
Will you be my friend? LOL, you f'ing crack me up. Keep 'em coming please!
I have three hoyas in around 3 hours of full sun per day. They are doing great:) They are in a southeast window.
Some do really well and some get deep red spots on them! Glad yours are doing great!
Absolutely loved this video! It helped me identify my Hoyas and showed me others I would love to get. You have a wonderful collection! 💗😊
For someone new to hoyas, can you give us an idea of how long it would take for one of your cuttings to start flowering? Are we talking years? I really want to one day see and smell a hoya flower, and now have a few cuttings and hoping it won't be decades!
It can be years in many cases, yes. 😬
@@betsybegonia but not decades, yay! I'll have to search for a plant that has peduncles on it I think!
I absolutely love your hoya collection. If you ever want to share is be one to gladly take some. My favorite species!
Lovin your hoyas and your beautiful self. Love from Shetland xxx
That Hoya Bella in your kitchen -Amazing!! And all the other hoya´s too -beautiful! My favourite hoya is hoya you didn´t seem to have... It´s Hoya Krohniana (eskimo). It has beautiful heart shaped leaves with many silver flecks.
I don't have that one YET. 🙂
Thank you for the tour! I love hoyas because of you, can't get enough of them!
Ahh hoyas! So glad to see such a great video!! :) :) Girl, bring back your Patreon! I'd love to support you so we see more of your lovely face
This is just a comment, more than anything about my own train of thought a few months prior to starting watching your channel, not to anger anyone, but a lot of those plants looked to me at first glance like a random common plant you find on the streets, not something rare or amazing. But the more you talk about them, when you explain the care, their growth, everything, they become beautiful and interesting and I stop thinking they are just "grass". I find it quite amazing how the knowledge can not only change your appreciating for something but you're an actual vision of it like they become something different in your mind. Now, for another comment, is it me or you have a 3 most favourite Hoya list that has actually 15 hoyas or more? hahahahaha : )
I am new to your channel and your are super funny!! 🤣🤣 Did you ever live in NYC? You definitely have the accent! Love your HOYA collection- I even took notes!!!! You and your plants are so LOVELY! ❤️🌱💕💕💕 Hello from Nashville TN but raised JERSEY 😉
Beautiful Hoyas plants, you have a green thumb, I love them all. Thank you for sharing, look forward for more video's.
Ohhhh I love them all. I only have 6 hoyas... for now 😁
University of Illinois has the study on Hoya's being rootbound and producing more flowers
Can you share it?
I can't seem to find the study to which you refer after a lot of digging. I can only find this publication from the University of Illinois, about reblooming gifted plants, and it encourages the reader to repot when a plant becomes pot-bound: www.ideals.illinois.edu/bitstream/handle/2142/33724/1163315.pdf?sequence=2
Hoyas all more or less look the same to me, but it's nice that they get to be under the spotlight every once in a while!
I want more of the begonias though!
Thanks for sharing! Liked hearing your opinion on root bound Hoyas and also the details on reverted variegation. My obovata picta reverted so I’ll probably chop the non variegated part off and hopefully a new offshoot will be variegated if I give it more light.
That Hoya bella is so freakin' gorgeous! I wasn't really a big fan of them, but the more I see them (especially as established/long plants) the more I like them. I have very few hoyas. I have Carnosa, Krimson Queen, and just recently bought callistophylla because it's so gorgeous. I hope you can root/save yours!
I have been looking forward to this! I just recently fell into the hoya rabbit hole lol. (and you should probs change your name to Betsy Hoya 😅)
Yessss!!! Beautiful collection! 🙆🏻♀️🙆🏻♀️🙆🏻♀️🙆🏻♀️
Beautifull..hoya..nice collection
From singapore
Thanks for the Hoya tour!! I might watch this a few more times 😂😘
I loved this video so much! I sometimes struggle with how much of each thing I should put in a hoya soil mix. My Krimson queen just had a few yellow leaves for some reason, I cut them off but I hope it doesn't continue to affect the plant.
Wow such an amazing video. Love your hoyas and the little tips you add in here and there!
The shelf is cute you should just repaint it😊
Love your Hoya collections, I pretty much got into Hoyas after watching your Hoya care video!!
Upgraded to a huge white shelf from IKEA on which I could install grow lights, much better.
Beautiful Hoyas. Wow!! Thanks for sharing this new video. Always happy to see a new one 💚
Yassss Hoyas!!! Oh my hoyas! I love your collection!!! Goals and inspiration 💚💚🌱🌱🌱💚💚
So wonderful !! I loved every second ..!! You have the best hoya collection online plus unique types Thank you soooo very much xoxo
Hi Betsy, yes!! This was a video I was really hoping you would do, so thank you. I have once again added to my wishlist, this slippery slope is no joke!! 🙊 also a request I would like to make: I love videos about background stories and more scientific videos like the one about the perched water table, I would love more content like that!!
Also, I would love to see a wishlistvideo (with pictures🙃)
Just got my Lisa cutting in the mail! So excited!
non hoya plant tour!
I love that Hoya linearis .... so beautiful!
Hi Betsy. Could you maybe show us how your hoya's look, when you decide that they're root bound enough to be repotted? I have a valentine Kerrii and I'm unsure whether to repot it or leave it be for now 😊
Thank you for the tour. Love your energy I have one Hoya Bella that I’m enjoying I can’t believe how large yours is I hope mine can match it
I love your videos! You’re fun and so knowledgeable. Thanks for another interesting video!
I love your funky Hoya obavada! It's unique! 😂 one of my Kerii leaves looks like that. I do wonder what it is that makes them funky like that.
I thoroughly enjoyed this vid!!! Thx for sharing your amazing energy with us🌱💚
I had to put my callis. in water as well. I have the regular and slim leaf versions. The regular one ( like yours ) is the one that refused to grow in the medium. It’s been doing well in water so I’m going to repot it when the riots get really substantial. I’m sure yours can turn around mine only had one leaf left by the time I went to save it. I had the same trouble with Hoya megalaster and it’s doing well now too
Love your hoya collection & thanks for sharing Betsy 😁😁😁😁😁😁😁
So much hoya envy! When I discovered your channel I only had one hoya........ Now...... I have 22 😬🤣😝😍😍😍😍
😂 Sorry not sorry.
@@betsybegonia no regrets here! Come next spring, I will double my collection!
Yay! Loved this long meaty video! Never to tired or busy for a dose of Betsy Begonia! I think a want a Hoya now!
Love this this video!!!! I love hoyas!!! You're videos are so awesome. Thank you!
Loved your tour! Would love to hear care tips for some of your specific Hoya species, especially those that I know are supposed to be hard to care for like Bella, Serpens, etc :) your collection is definitely making me grow my wishlist 😍
Loooved this video!!!!! Thanks for showing us around! I cannot wait to see that gunung gading grow- loving vicariously through you 😂
Beautiful collection! Can you talk about saving your hoya compacta? ...what were the symptoms, what did you do to save it... what's the time span to save the plant?
I made a video about it, it is one of my earliest videos. 🙂
Betsy, you should check out Uhlig-Kakteen for their hoya selection. They recently added a huge bunch to their site and have some really nice ones left. My order is on it's way, can't wait! Thank you for the great videos, you are just up my alley. 🤗
Thank you for sharing.
Love your collection! I know that with some Hoya (particularly Imperialis), new growth will start to die off if it's pointing down... Not sure if you're still having issues with your Serpens, and I don't have one to speak of (someday!)... but you might try putting your Serpens on a trellis or something where it can grow up. Just a thought! :)
Wow ! Hoya Goals 😱🙌🏻👑 beautiful collection 😍
I had the same issue with Hoya leaves ! My obovata and one of my Karrii put out tiny little leafs and they completely disappeared ! I looked everyone and I’ve never found them lol super weird
Awesome video as usual..Thank you for the tour👍❤
Your Hoya Bella looks amazing!
Love your collection Betsy - your Hoya Bella is amazing and inspired me to take the plunge in purchasing my own:)
Hi Betsy I have some really cute Hoya Bella cuttings that I would like to pot up. Do you use your usual Hoya potting mix for your bella and water it more than your other Hoyas?
Hoya chouke so cute
You have a gazillion hoyas! whoa,!
