    Do you have fleeting Hoya love interests like myself? What's your Hoya of the moment?

      Krimson Princess, Cutis-Porcelana and Bella Lois Buis.
      And no, not everyone wants to get their hands on that big leave Hoya of yours 😉😁. I’m not really a fan of big leave Hoya’s in general. I would love to have a Serpens, Sigillatis Alas River and a New Guinea Ghost.

    Would love to see what you currently think are the top ugliest plants (doesn't have to be Hoyas but could be). I think that would be a fun video. Glad to see you back. You always make me laugh.

  • @LauraStansfield-tw7xb

    Definitely little sea turtle shells on a string!
    Your personality reminds me of my dads humor when I was younger. And it's a joy to watch you.
    Plus sarcasm is beautiful and I have a tone problem.. nice to see someone who probably gets a lot of the same complaints from other people.
    Also I'm constantly told I'm on d ugs because of my upbeat energy.
    Some people are just fun!
    You're fun. Love your rambling

  • @EmiMae0117
    @EmiMae0117 Před 5 měsíci +1

    With splashy Hoya like your pubicalyx, I will list the plant or cuttings as H. Pubicalyx (shows splash when under high light) or whatever it does and the conditions needed. I agree with you that it shouldn’t be named as ‘Splash’ if it isn’t so unless conditions provided make it so

  • @cameliamaria1055
    @cameliamaria1055 Před 5 měsíci +1

    Hey Betsy! Hope you are well today. Idea for video: some thoughts about hand pollination and your experience. I remember that you once said you are trying to hand pollinate using a microscope, but unsuccessfully. As there is still something to learn from failures, maybe it would be interesting for viewers. For me at least it would be very interesting :D

  • @Nattsplants
    @Nattsplants Před 6 měsíci +2

    Loooove your content! Keep it up 😊 video idea for you and/or Miro, could you guys please measure the light your hoyas get 🙏🙏🙏 it helps so much when trying to recreate growing conditions, i know im on a different continent so there’s other factors that come into play but I’ve been learning about light recently and that would just be sooooo helpful 🤞🙏❤

    • @betsybegonia
      @betsybegonia  Před 6 měsíci

      Thanks for watching! Unfortunately I don't have a light meter, they're quite expensive and the phone apps are useless. Sorry! But I have videos about the lights I have from Soltech Solutions, Mother, and Mars Hydro.

    I am always so happy to wake up to a video from you. Always makes my day to see you and Miro. I have a strange strappy leaf hybrid Hoya that has just gone nuts lately and is the most unique Hoya I have that has just captured my heart. My elliptical is sitting on my table right now needing attention again. I am always having root issues with her.

    • @betsybegonia
      @betsybegonia  Před 6 měsíci

  • @erikamatsumoto4535
    @erikamatsumoto4535 Před 5 měsíci

    Okay! This video made me so excited for hoyas all over again! Haven't bough a new hoya basically since 2022, and this is t e m p t i n g me! I have a soft spot for hoya obovata especially a super splashy one! Love a good callistophylla, except in my local plant shop it was going for like $150 which is just wild to me; it's cute, but not break-my-wallet-and-spit-in-my-eye cute. And hoya bella because man that thing will not stop blooming! Also so happy too see you and the worm again

    Hi! So cool you’re doing videos again! I’d like to see a collaborative video with Miro (maybe split screen) about the same 5 Hoyas. He would say how much he loves a Hoya then you would say how much you hate that same Hoya. 😂

  • @molliewoltmann5229
    @molliewoltmann5229 Před 6 měsíci

    So good to see you- have missed your ramblings (and I 100% agree about the ‘prehistoric’ moniker) !! I also have a very splashy H. pubicalyx (sold as ‘silver splash’) and it is really really lovely. Right now my favorite is an ‘old’ standard: my H macrophylla outer variegated is just so gorgeous! HUGE leaves, the size of my full hand, and I just love love love it. Would really love to see flowers on it, but I must wait. At least my H amicabilis gives me flowering joy on a regular basis and is a bright light in my collection right now.

    • @betsybegonia

    My current favorites are the ones I have in bloom like multifleura, bertonii, lacunosa, etc, or getting ready to bloom especially if it has never bloomed before for me. I would love it if my eliptical would bloom, but no peduncles yet.

  • @lilianelabellebelton

    Your ellpitica is beautiful! The leaves look thicker than all the ones I've had. I've had 2 or 3 and not one of them made it. That's too bad because it'sone of my favourite leaf pattern. My daughter has a cat almost identical to yours and it poops a LOT! Haha! Must be the breed!!!

    @mg8565 Před 5 měsíci

    It's great seeing you sharing hoyas again!
    My clemensiorum bloomed for me on two peduncles in the past weeks - I was so proud - and is now pushing them out again on the same spurs. They are juicy, fyi. I had recently put it under new lights in a new cabinet, and I began to see gorgeous sunstressing on one particularly photogenic-perfect-specimen of a leaf. And then, those gorgeous red swaths became paper thin, and orange, and then yellow, and soon will be ugly burn scars. All in aperiod of about 6 weeks. I've reduced the lighting in that cabinet by 50%; probably a good move since the mindorensis was turning red, the elliptica was making new leaves the color of raspberry jam., and the finalysonii 'big leaf' was making new leaves which were very, very small. Lessons are always being learned!
