Hello #GregGang I need some help. I just received a hoya ...

Hello #GregGang I need some help. I just received a hoya AH battleground and it’s not in the database. I tried to add it, following all of the guidelines, but it won’t let me. Does anyone know how to add new plants to the database? Thanks in advance #HappyPlants #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #PlantAddict #Hoya #help
Sometimes happens. Tells you it can't add but the moment you search again the plant is magically added. Same for my Cryptocoryne undulatus
@Araceae I will go check. Thank you!
@MomentousBonsai If you still have difficulty adding it, email Greg support at conceirge@greg.app and they can usually add it for you.
@Seymour oh, thank you! I will definitely reach out to
It wont ever let me add a plant. Ive tried a bunch of times. Finally just decided to let greg call it whatever it wants. And if it wont identify at all i just put hoya. Much easier to actually get the plants on your profile.
@TheConservator that’s what I usually do, just thought I would ask this time πŸ˜‚
Also i have been looking at aHoya battleground cuttings on ebay! Theyre really cool looking
@TheConservator I love the dark margins. A local seller on the Palmstreet app had one, I couldn’t pass it up
@Seymour I emailed them and they are reaching out to the botanists to add it to the database
Nice! So its am actual plant then and not a cutting ?
Im a hoya nut lol. I jyst got 2 today in the mail from thailand. Ill post a story and pics later after i get em situated.
@Seymour im not that worried about it. I know they cant let people just randomly add plants. That would be a mess! I just figure the app will eventually get them added πŸ™Œ
@TheConservator this one is a plant. I have gotten cuttings from him in the past, but I got lucky this time
@TheConservator I would love to see them! I am quickly becoming a huge fan. I have gotten six plants and cuttings in the last week
@MomentousBonsai ive had hoyas for 30 yrs or more but the new interest in plants and the ease that you can get hoyas has sparked my interst again for sure. Think ive addex 8-9 in the last month. All starters except these 2 i just bought from thailand.
5 yrs ago you really couldnt get em around here except 3-4 kinds
@TheConservator hoyas are fairly new to me, just because I didn’t know them. In the last year, I have added 14 to my collection. I love the ease and the unique beauty of them
@MomentousBonsai Thanks for the update, Dawn. Glad it was sorted. @TheConservator To be honest, I have so many plants that don’t get ID but that’s ok with me as I know what they are
@Seymour yeah me too lol. But alot of why i got this app was to keep an inventory of my plants with their identification. But i dont care if greg identifies it or i do…. Except that im a lazy bastard and procrastinate to much πŸ˜‚
@TheConservator I do this but put the real name in the β€˜name’ field. E.g. Alice β€˜Teacup Hoya’
