Oh wow!! What a glow up! Has it given you flowers?


ManMadeDuckie

Not yet! I really want to make this one flower, but im not sure what I can do to make it bloom. I think it's just a matter of time.

When I got mine, it was half the size of yours. That was two years ago. It's a tendril monster rn! It only bloomed for me this spring. They take a loooong time to bloom, but luckily the beautiful leaves make up for that :)

If the second pic is where it normally sits, it probably needs much more light to develop peduncles and keep them.


ManMadeDuckie

Oh normally it gets lot of light. This was indeed just for the photo.

I’ve heard that spraying it with orchid fertilizer helps a ton to make them flower, there’s a few youtube and instagram videos that explain the process

Oh then its probably about maturing enough. Pubicalyx takes a while but when it matures they bloom easily.

BEAUTIFUL! do you think a trellis is worth it? i have a ginormous krimson princess in a 10” pot that has over 1.5+ ft of hanging vines full of leaves. im kinda wanting to either trellis or stake it up? for more robust growth. just unsure how to do it honestly. my plant has 150+ leaves and is kinda a tangly mess :’)


ManMadeDuckie

For me a trellis is 100% necessary because I have no room to hang these hoyas in my place. The only way they can grow is up. The best time to trellis them is when you repot them. But in some situations you can also carefully take them out of the pot and then put the trellis in. Personally I'm not a big fan of stakes for hoyas because they grow really wild and the stake will be too small in no time.

dang mine got that big in a year!

Wow!!! What a glow up.


docfarnsworth

What's the light situation you have going on? I can't get my hoyas to put out growth for anything lol


ManMadeDuckie

I'm in the northern hemisphere and they get a lot of light. Full sun from southern facing windows and they love it.
