Ok, well I reckon mine is close to your 'Krimson Queen' then.
I should perhaps take pics of my Mum's sometime because it's more than masive... around the time my cutting was taken it was looped around a hoop stuck in the pot. It wound around and around and around. At some time later there was too much of it for the hoop so she added a moss pole and wound some more of it around that... when it became too big for that she put it in the corner of her porch and started training it up the trellis on one wall as well. The trellis goes up the wall then across above the living room side window which looks out in to the porch, the hoya covers it all. It is almost always in flower, but looks fantastic (and smells fantastic) when there are a lot of flowers (which is quite often).
