I got this hoya as an unrooted cutting in July 2007 in an order from David Liddle in Australia. It rooted fast and started growing quite well, but after I moved in June 2008 it never really got any good space and I almost lost it... I cut it down and rooted several smaller cuttings, but the new spot wasn't much better and it hardly grew anything...

After moving to a new house in November 2009 it was still alive and I put it in a semi bright window in our basement and it started growing, but only very little... I later discovered the roots weren't doing so well so I took new cuttings in November 2011 and they were placed in my hoya room in the basement and it seems to like it there and it has gotten several new leaves so there's hope now!
