Hello all
I inherited 2 hoyas from my mom a year ago. I haven't been living in a house for quite a while and so I didn't have much experience with plants.
She had 2 hoya carnosas, a regular one and a compact.
They have been looking terrible.
They were half under a canopy but did get rained on (southern florida, had lots of rain last year). So I think they got too much water and when I looked at them out of their pot a few days ago there was not much root to them. It probably rotted and the soil i think was too compact.
The compact carnosa looks terribly dry and crinkled. I cut it up and put it in water with kelpmax to try to stimulate root growth. It already looks a little better I think. The regular one is not crinkled but does not look like its thriving and one of the leaves turned yellow and fell off. I put the regular carnosa back in new soil with perlite, but the roots were not long enough to hold it in the pot due to the shape of the plant right above the roots. So I put part of it in water with kelpmax and another piece that had a root back in a pot with soil.
I'm wondering if I've done the best I can do with it and if anyone has any advice I'd be glad to get it.
