hi my friends my hoya multiflora is in bloom so i thought it'd be perfect to do
a wax plant wednesday video featuring this beauty
not all of her blooms are fully open yet and i decided to do the video right now because
i find that this plant is easy to drop its bloom that's probably due to my watering schedule i
like to water my plants once a week and i find for this hoya ideally every three days
so it seems to be best for her to keep her blooms and to keep her leaves nice and firm
this way is fairly inexpensive i only paid 15 bucks for this beauty
at vandermeer back in the summer now i find that this hoya does not
like direct sun at all i had her in direct sun and it started to yellow the leaves
so i've moved her back from the window she's in a bright spot getting bright indirect light
i've not re-potted her yet i like the mixture that she's in it's a
pity soil so it holds on to moisture a little bit longer
now this way it doesn't give tendrils or vines like a hoya carnosa it's more of a structured
bushy plant i notice she's got a little new growth at the bottom so she can branch out quite nicely
and i'm contemplating cutting her back in the summer to create more of a bushy plant
her blooms are absolutely beautiful now you might be wondering what does this
beauty smell like and there's no fragrance i've tried to put
her in full sun i've tried to smell it at nighttime and there's no fragrance at all
for fertilizer i give her a very weak solution
just a tiny drop of the liquid fox farm fertilizer in her water every week
this way is so easy to bloom if you don't have one of these beauties in your collection you
should definitely add one it's so rewarding to have a hoya that's constantly in bloom
thanks for watching plant friends and a shout out to merlin from your friend nikki
