Description
Hoya Minibelle is a compact, fast-growing bushy hoya. It a cross between Hoya shepherdii and Hoya carnosa with gorgeous narrow, flecked leaves measuring up to 12cm x 2cm.
The blooms comes with light to dark pink star-shaped flowers, up to 20mm across, with red-centered white corona. Up to 20 flowers per umbel. The flower's surface fuzzy because it is covered by tiny hair. They are heavily scented with a sweet fragrance. Flowers last for up to 7 days.
Environment
Easy to grow & don"t require much attention. Hoya do best in filtered light or with lots of artificial light in indoors.
Hoya plants don't ask for much, beyond the well-draining soil and the warm humid conditions ((similar to bromeliads and orchids)
They are epyphite, can be grown in orchid medium or light potting mix with lots of bark conditioner. Hoya like the security of a snug pot, and plants that are a bit root bound will flower more prolifically than those that are swimming around in a giant pot.
This plant is attractive to bees, butterflies and/or birds .
Landscape Use
It makes a nice hanging basket, but also does really well as a mounted plant
