Hoya; 'Minibelle' is a hybrid between Hoya shepherdii and Hoya carnosa. It is named after the hybridizer's wife, Minibelle Hummel. The name of the hybridizer is Ed Hummell.
The long narrow leaves are 'inherited' from Hoya sheperdii and the flecks from Hoya carnosa. If this Hoya is grown in a little darker spot, the leaves can get to over 20 cm. and the splashes become more prominent. The flat flowers are light pink and about 2 cm each. There is about 15-20 flowers in an umbel. The flowers have a pleasant fragrance similar to Hoya sheperdii but not as strong.

The genus was named in Modern Latin in honor of English gardener and botanist Thomas Hoy (c. 1750-1822).
