Re-potting Hoya
My Hoya Caudata Sumatra is growing so much. Her roots are through the bottom of the pot and she's needs re-potting. She's in a 6" pot now, the only pot I have is 7 1/2" but a much taller pot. My question is... Is that pot (pic below) too big to re-pot my Hoya into? #happyplants #plantsmakepeoplehappy #plantaddict #hoya #hoyahangout #hoyaheads #sarahsgrove
Thank you @SvelteKingfern you're right a larger pot shouldn't be more than 2" larger than a plant 's current pot. π₯°
Jasmine, I was just concerned about the pot being so much taller, would she be ok without pebbles in the bottom, I have plenty of soil π
Thank you π₯° @HoyaAddict
Thank you π₯° @HoyaAddict
@Sassylimey Yes she should be good! Seeing as itβs terracotta any excess water will transpire π you can add a bit more perlite or vermiculite to the soil for extra drainage.
Hi Sophie, you're so sweet! Lol I'm definitely a sassy woman π€£ @SvelteKingfern
I'll do that Jasmine, thank you...
It's amazing how much my Hoyas are growing, it's winter here. My Multiflora just blew her buds, will more form on that peduncle? @HoyaAddict

@Sassylimey They must be loving the lower sun in the windows! Multiflora are very thirsty Hoya compared to other because theyβre not epiphytes theyβre terrestrial! So they can blast buds when theyβre not getting enough waters she will definitely try again from the same peduncles π just wanted more often whenever your hoyas are budding up π they are looking absolutely good by the way! I love your Hoya collection
Ok ladies, she's all potted up and looking quite happy in her new outfit ππ @HoyaAddict @SvelteKingfern

Thank you @UltraKoreanfir her new outfit does look better π₯°
