Don’t get scammed yall! I’m just trying to help 😂 I also dont think I went too deep into it but just because someone is selling a splashy NOID hoya doesn’t mean its a wilbur or something fancy! Hope y’all enjoyed or learned something!! 💚💚

Preach! 👏🏼👏🏼 Wilbur graves is beautiful, no doubt but it’s JUST as pretty as a splashy carnosa or pubicalyx. And if you can’t really tell the difference, what’s the point? 🌝

[emilyreeves]

I’ve definitely spent a pretty penny on certain Hoyas that I personally found worth it, but Hoya prices are seriously crazy right now. As much as I’d love to grow some of the more hard to find/rare Hoyas, I just can’t justify their price tag. Thanks for giving some great options in this video! I definitely want to try and find a few you spoke about.

I’m tooting my own horn when it comes to Hoya. I love the “dinner plate” varieties which are much more striking than splashy, ghosty or whatever the fad of the day is.
Give me a glabra, latifolia or even Golden Eye or Viola over anything splashy

I have three Wilbur Graves, and they grow like weeds! I adore them!

[dreamsofhoya]

Call me crazy, but I swear certain varieties of “silver” Hoya just look moldy to me 🤭😵 My Pubicalyx splash is prettier! Lol great video 😘

[adriennedahlstrom]

OMG!!! I had this exact conversation about my pubicalyx the other day on one of my local plant pages!! I got it for $10 and it has super fun strikingly splashy leaves and several people told me it looked like a wilbur! So funny!

[khristiewelliott]

Aaah you are so right!!! Been thinking a lot why Wilbur graves soo expensive 🤷‍♀️ And I am so agree again about krohniana and lacunosa snow caps, which I recently bought (because they are within my budget) I am so in love with them..they are so cute ❤️❤️ Never get tired see them at my plant shelves 😄

Yes your video makes us keep an open mind when buying splashy or variegated hoyas or plants in general...the variegation or splashiness sometimes revert back to the original green ...and this is because sometimes they are not stable, sometimes they need more light and exposure...knowing this, like you, I'm not too interested in variegations because it's harder to check for pests like mealy bugs and others that are camouflaged in the splashy leaves...also when they flower, it's a better contrast on a green leaves than variegated leaves....it looks more stunning as it doesn't compete with the variegations....

i got a giant pubicalyx splash my first hoya for $21 at a local store :) i went to a bunch of local stores and it took me a while to find a hoya but i’m glad i got it it’s a big boy and was very much worth it. it’s so beautiful xx

[orchidsbythelake]

I used to collect hoyas actively. Then those people who just want to collect just because went crazy and everything went over-priced and this movement really turned me off. Those people don’t even care that Hoyas actually bloom and.... no matter what the leaves look like, the blooms are the same. 🤷🏻‍♂️ and those people spend HUNDREDS of dollars... I thought we are in financial crisis? 🤷🏻‍♂️ apparently not.

That splashy obovata definitely knocks it out of the park!!

[plantlover]

It’s true. So many sellers sold pubicalyix saying it was the royal Hawaiian version. You can’t tell until it blooms. And so many got scammed.

[judymckerrow]

I LOVE Hoya. I’ve never heard, or seen any of those for sale? Do you have a special place that carries them, secret to the rest of us?💚🙃

[davidcandia]

Iu just started w hoyas again. I'd given up on them . Killed my first 5 attempts. A gift got me started again. Ha. 8 different hoyas in 5 months and not one leaf lost. That's why I am kinda stalking your YouTube channel. 😂. Splashy obovata is now on my list. Loving the non splashy obovata too much to not get a splashy one too. 🌱❤️ Thanks

[kristyncoffel]

My splashy hate comes from jealousy too :) Wish I could have some of that splash!

[lewpaul]

I almost purchased wilbur graves that had wrong ID, twice from different sellers. Good thing i googled and found out those plants were not wilbur graves.

[sylviawood]

I have missed your videos. This video was great. Keep smiling ❤🌿

[SarahS-gbwu]

The Nova Ghost you showed is actually a Grey Ghost. 😇

[sumiowens]

Oh my goodness, I love you ❤️ thank you for me to think about purchase it might be scam!!
