I got this hoya as an unrooted cutting in November 2006 and then it was called wee-bella. I won it in a lottery at a hoya meeting and since I had trouble growing the "regular" bella I didn't particularly want this little one... strangly enough, but it got to come home with me. I cut it up in three pieces and they rooted nicely and started growing and since this hoya didn't take up much space I left it hanging a little beside a window.

The little plant bloomed for the first time in May 2008 and after that there was an umbel now and then. I started liking this hoya and when I got more space after moving to a house again I bought four more cuttings to fill out the pot a little faster. The plant is now quite big and since November 2011 it has bloomed more or less all the time. I have it hanging in a window facing north where also Hoya bella hangs and they both bloom a lot.
