Welcome Jalinda. I agree with Charleen, you will love it here. There are many friendly and knowledgeable folks who are always willing to answer questions and help each other!

Your Hoya carnosa is lovely! It might be Hoya carnosa, cultivar 'Rubra', commonly called "Krimson Princess Hoya".

I learned the following from a couple of hoya growers on another forum:

Hoya carnosa 'Rubra' ("Krimson Princess") - has green leaf edges and cream to pink center leaf color.

Hoya carnosa 'Tricolor' ("Krimson Queen") - has cream to white leaf edges and green center leaf color.

Your plant looks very healthy and happy! Have you had blooms yet? You can check out the Hoya carnosa's listed in the Plant Database for comparison: http://garden.org/plants/searc...

Again, welcome to All Things Plants!
