This is a hoya that makes "third time lucky" true. I got my first cutting in September 2006 and it didn't take long before it was dead. Then I gave this hoya another chance in April 2007 because I thought the first one died because it was rather late in the year and that a cutting in the spring would have a better chance at making it... but, it didn't. Then it wasn't until May 2011 that I gave it a third and final chance and it turned out to be a wise decision. It rooted fast and started growing well. It's not a fast growing hoya here, but it doesn't matter since I have it in a small window on a small support.

The window it is in is in our basement and it gets very little sun, but plenty of light and apparantly that was enough. In November 2013 I noticed the first buds and shortly after I got to see the beautiful flowers. Since then it has bloomed several times.
