Hi Tammy :) Happy Holidays. I am going to assume that your plant has been going downhill for several weeks. In my experience, if a Hoya is going to bounce back, it does so within a couple weeks. If it were mine, I would reroot it, or at a minimum start a few cuttings. Rerooting Hoyas is part and parcel of growing them. We water them the best we can and sometimes, particularly in fall and winter, something goes wrong. Rerooting them is a quicker and surer road to health than waiting for nature to take it's course. Of course, it's ideal to do stuff in spring, but if a plant is sick, the situation forces your hand.

A Merry Christmas to you, Laurie, and to all of you, my hosta friends! Thank you for the lovely pictures. This is my contribution - it was a double Brandy ... just enough left to toast all of you. Regardless of your faith, may the special feeling that is predominant at this time linger in your heart.

Christmas future is far away Christmas past is past Christmas present is here today Bringing joy that will last Have yourself a Merry Little Christmas Let your heart be light From now on our troubles Will be out of sight Have yourself a Merry Little Christmas Make the yuletide gay From now on your troubles Will be miles away Here we are as in olden days Happy golden days of yore Faithful friends who are dear to us Gather near to us once more Through the years we all will be together If the fates allow Hang a shining star upon the highest bough And have yourself a Merry Little Christmas now Ralph Blane/Hugh Martin Merry Christmas to my RMG gardening buddies!
