Hi Marcy,

All my hoyas are planted in plastic pots with about 1/2 - 1 inch of large clay pebbles (leca) at the bottom to keep air under the roots. For each time I repot the hoya I put less leca in the bottom to get more room for fresh soil. I also add small leca in the bottom of the planter and then I put the plastic pot in. The leca in the planter also helps keep air in and it also helps me keep the hoya steady. Don't know if any of this makes sense, but if it's not here's a photo to show the result of what the planter leca might be.
