This variety has rightly earned its name (\u003ci data-path-to-node=\"3\" data-index-in-node=\"202\"\u003eBella\u003c\/i\u003e from Latin\/Italian – beautiful), as it is considered one of the most elegant and compact wax flowers in the world among collectors and designers. Unlike other hoyas with large, massive leaves, 'Bella' enchants with its delicacy: its slender, elongated shoots are densely and symmetrically covered with \u003cb data-path-to-node=\"3\" data-index-in-node=\"518\"\u003esmall, firm, spear-shaped leaves in a lush green tone\u003c\/b\u003e that gracefully cascade over the pot’s edges. But the real natural show and the greatest pride of this plant are its legendary flowers. At the tips of the shoots, \u003cb data-path-to-node=\"3\" data-index-in-node=\"720\"\u003eperfect clusters of star-shaped flowers regularly form, looking as if cut from pure, shining white porcelain, with a striking violet-pink gemstone \"crown\" decorating their center\u003c\/b\u003e.

However, \u003cb data-path-to-node=\"5,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"294\"\u003estrictly protect it from direct, scorching midday sun rays\u003c\/b\u003e, which can instantly burn or yellow its delicate leaves.

Unlike other hoyas, which tend to be distinctly succulent and tolerate prolonged dryness, 'Bella' grows in the wild as a tropical epiphyte and prefers slightly more consistent moisture. \u003cb data-path-to-node=\"5,1,0\" data-index-in-node=\"211\"\u003eWater the plant generously, but only when the top layer of soil (the upper 2-3 cm of the pot) is completely dry between waterings!\u003c\/b\u003e Since the plant is in a stable 12 cm pot, it retains moisture a bit longer, so the plant \u003cb data-path-to-node=\"5,1,0\" data-index-in-node=\"430\"\u003eabsolutely cannot tolerate root soaking in standing water\u003c\/b\u003e in the saucer, which can cause sensitive root rot and bud drop.

Also, after flowering, do not cut off the small flower stalks – the hoya often blooms again in the same spots the following year! Since this is already an exceptionally mature plant in a stable 12 cm pot, it will not require immediate repotting for a very long time (even a year or two). When you do repot it in the future, be sure to use \u003cb data-path-to-node=\"10\" data-index-in-node=\"753\"\u003ean extremely airy, porous, and well-draining epiphyte soil mix\u003c\/b\u003e (peat generously mixed with perlite and fine orchid\/pine bark) to ensure the roots breathe freely and water drains instantly through the pot.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Augi-Plants","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54832403939657,"sku":null,"price":42.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0549\/0252\/1918\/files\/1513C65F-9DD7-4F5F-B47A-F6696C93E6DD.jpg?v=1783666617","url":"https:\/\/www.augi-plants.lv\/en\/products\/hoya-bella","provider":"www.augi-plants.lv","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
