Anyone know where I can get a Hoya Bella

I have been looking for a Hoya Bella and would prefer the variegated variety.
I had one a couple of years ago and didn't realize it needed to be kept moist and lost it.
Before it started to go downhill it bloomed all the time.
Thanks for your help!

I see that the plant comes in a 4" pot. I am thinking of potting into a basket and am wondering, if I wanted a 6" basket, how many plants would I want to use?

I would guess 2 plants but am not sure. I know that the Hoya Bella has very shallow roots and the one I used to have was a very full plant and was in only a 4" basket but wouldn't putting 2 plants from 4" pots into a 4" basket be too crowded?

Any advice on this please?

Cena, Like Cpawl, I got a huge one a few years ago (when EA was offering them) and it just got so big that I whacked mine up this summer. They do usually root in water, but I always have trouble getting water roots to adapt to soil. So my favorite way to root them is to take a handfull of cuttings and stick the base of the stems in a baggie full of wet sphagnum moss, then clip it closed around the stems with the foliage sticking out the top. If the sphag starts to dry out, open it to re-wet it (I spray it with some VF-11 water.) Within a few weeks, the bag is full of roots! Then I just shake off any excess sphag and plant them in the regular soil I use. The key to multiflora is not to let it get even a little dry. In your climate, it would probably take water almost every day! Denise in Omaha

They aren’t a custom maker—-of anything. They do resell Thermofoil plastic wrap doors, and order them from somewhere else, Mark it up, then sell them to people who don’t know they can find the same thing for less than half price with no middleman. As any true professional knows.

I would stick with one for a 6 inch pot...It will fill out quickly.There are a good size for the price.I have one in a 6 inch pot for 2 summers now and doubles in size each year.You can always cut off the longer ends and stick back in the pot to root,or overlap the longer vines back on top of the soil and hold in place with a rock or pin down with bobby pins or clothes hanger cut up and bent in u bends.The vine will form roots and eventually make a new plant...that's what i did. They also sell the regular bella as well.Here is mine.
