I'm plant sitting for a co-worker. His rope plant has sections that have turned completely brown. Other leaves look like they are drying up and only a few leaves still look healthy. I noticed there is some sort of fungus on it. Looks like what my mom used to call mealey bug. Any ideas what can be done to save it?

Gardenyogi: You might want to post your question over on the Hoya Forum ... there are a few experts over there who might be able to give you some advice regarding your co-workers plant. Here's the link to the Hoya Forum:

And here's the link to Plant Files with information on the plant:
