Hoya cummingiana
When it comes to plants, I am always interested in something a little different from the standard varieties. We all know Hoya carnosa (aka: wax plant, porcelain flower & Honey plant), usually with white/pale pink flowers.
At the NHOS show, Ten Shin Gardens brought in plants of several other species. I purchased 3, and have just bloomed the first = Hoya cummingiana.
The flowers are a bit smaller than H. carnosa, but so is the plant.
