Hoya Dickinsonia (Weebella) Hoya cv Weebella

Type: Leaves 1 to 1� cm, flowers like Hoya Bella (although probably smaller, will have to wait for that one...) This plant has come on in leaps and bounds since I first got it, when it looked like this. It even seems to grow in the depths of winter when all the other hoyas are sulking... Apparently it is a small version of Bella, although the leaves are much more rounded.

Hoya DS-70 Hoya DS-70 (tsangii)

Type: Leaves 4-7 cm.

Flowers: small and dark purple when mature, although I haven't seen any on mine yet!

I bought this plant from Paul Shirley after hearing that it is easy to grow and flowers fairly easily. It didn't root very easily but now it has rooted it seems to be quite happy. It responds well to warmth - my front room was quite cold for a spell because my radiator wasn't working - and seems to be a fairly fuss-free plant. It is also known as Tsangii.
