Yayy! Its so pretty! Do they have a scent?

I was so excited to that it had bloomed, I never really stuck my nose near it. lol

I guess the scent wasn't strong enough to smell from about 2 feet away.

I actually have one that survived after a few attempts it has a few blooms, I have however killed almost every single variegated bella ( I have a teeny one alive so far)...waiting for that one to croak any day,lol...

Congrats! I do love the blooms on Bella...

Wish I grow Serpens...Ihave a tiny one too...

**sigh**...Marco do you own serpens?

No Pug, no serpens in my small collection.

I'm keeping Vella in the house which is air conditioned. I think it doesn't like the hot humid weather (unlike most Hoyas)

Love it! Gorgeous!

That is sooo pretty. I have the tiniest little bella and I can't wait till it grows up and blooms. I was very taken by the look of this hoya and with the blooms it's heavenly. Is it that finicky a plant?

Surprisingly enough my Bella lives outdoors except during frost/freeze and it blooms off and on all year. I do keep my Serpens inside in the a/c this one really hates the heat/humidity.

The thing about this Hoya is how wild and unruly it grows for me,lol...its like a "bad hair day" :o)...but she blooms so I don't complain too much.

my hoyas stay out in the cold during winter and do well surprisingly with the cold..they are in a sheltered patio though..and they flower regularly..those are a bit pale..maybe some fertilizer might help

That's so pretty!

I'm getting a bella when I move house in august...seeing this pictures makes my hands itch to start packing, lol!

That's so lovely, congrats on the pretty blooms. I love the "petite" Hoyas. I have a small bella but she's not looking like she's going to bloom anytime soon. I also love davidcummingi, heuschkeliana and kanyakumariana. I hope one of them gives me a bloom this summer.

My 3 bellas are in bloom too. In Comparison the "normal" bella has the largest flowers. Smell is the same...lovely.
