Hoya bella

Hoya bella is an epiphytic species with small, glossy, deep green foliage on thin, trailing stems. It is native from Assam to Myanmar. This batch consists of a compact specimen, suitable for a hanging basket; the vines supplied are approximately 30 cm long. This is the green form, not a variegated selection. The star-shaped flowers are white, with a cyclamen-pink center, and have a sweet fragrance that is easier to detect in the evening. Flowering depends on the plant’s maturity and growing conditions.

Foliage and growth habit

The stems are flexible and trailing, rather than vigorous climbing vines requiring support. The leaves are small, fleshy, oval or elongated, and deep green. The approximately 30 cm length describes the batch supplied, not the species’ maximum length. The vines may have mechanical damage or scars.

Flowers and fragrance

The flowers are star-shaped and white, sometimes with a pink tint, with a cyclamen-pink corona. They appear in pendulous umbels. The fragrance is sweet and is described as more intense in the evening. Due to temperature variations, flowers may be lost during transport. Flowering depends on the plant’s maturity and growing conditions.

Identity

The ceramic pot is not included in the price.
