Hoya carnosa
As the common name, Wax Plant, suggests, the flowers are waxy but soft. My plant is a very slow growing vine that lives in partial sun/shade. The flowers a soft pink color. This plant has flowered for the second time this year, in the same spot as the previous year - I am glad it did not 'dead head' this vine.
If you are interested in growing this at home, or have one and are looking for care tips, the following websites have wonderful information. http://davesgarden.com/guides/pf/go/432/... http://www.mollystropicalplants.com/hoya...
Hoya bella I believe. We used to sell a lot of these at a flower shop I once worked at. My mother-in-law keeps one as a houseplant.
I wonder if that is a relation to my milk weed - http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/830...
