One of my favorite Hoya's as well! I find this one very easy ... it seems to just do it's thing and all I have to do is it water once (or depending on time of year) twice a week with the garden hose! I am very bad about fertilizing any of my plants and this one just blooms it's little head off all summer long.

I was confused about this one at first. Someone ID'd it as Hoya kentiana but then someone else said it wasn't kentiana but rather wayetti because of the dark brown leaf edges. It seems to me when I first got this one it was solid green and the dark edges didn't show up until it was in more sunlight? So, is the proper name H. kentiana "wayetti"?
