Let me start by saying I am a plantaholic. At one time I had over a hundred orchids in a 15x30 greenhouse. Most of those are gone now, because I became addicted to cactus & succulents. I seriously doubt Hoya will take the place of my C&S but I've had my eye on these at Lowe's for some time and finally succumbed when they went on clearance.

From what I have read in the sticky for this forum, these two Hoya shouldn't be too very difficult to grow. They are both Exotic Angel plants, though, and want to make sure they have a proper ID.

The first one, according to the plant tag is "Hoya carnosa variegata". Second one is "Hoya kentiana".

Thanks for any input you may have.
