I have 3 Hoyas that top my wish list. H. engleriana, H. elliptica, and H. praetorii. I have spent an inordinate amount of money cuttings of each of the three. (I am embarassed to admit the number of H. elliptica I have ordered from David Liddle) Whats worse, I have lost cuttings that were gifted and those hurt me more than if I purchaced a cutting. Poor me...guess I need a little whine with my cheese...
I now have a scraggly, but, healthy, single 4-6" vine. It is in a small glass greenhouse, over the sink, in a east window that gets no direct sunlight. OK, I have been growing tropical plants since the Flower Power 70's and spent 4 years studying agriculture. Yet, this dainty plant intimidates me! I have Post Traumatic Stress Disorder each time I attempt to take it out of it's pot, which I can tell needs to happen soon!
I would love to hear how others have mastered H. engleriana.
Where is it the happiest,?
what soil or soil less media?
when and how often you water?
Who's on first?
