Amy... I love to go to Lowe's, HD, and Wal-mart... but it's l;ike I "have" to save the dying plants from the bad people who don't take care of them! LOL!!! It's futile! It's like wanting to save all the kittens at the humane society... but you can't save them all, and you can't bring them all home. *sigh* I "saved" a desert rose from Wal-mart this spring, and it loves me for it, as you can see from the photo below.

On the hoyas... to me, the blooms don't even look real! I told my DGer friend that is giving me the cuttings, that the blooms look like cake decorations... like candied flowers or something... I think they are stunning!

Brenda, that one you have is beautiful too!

Snowrose, the one you showed the foliage of... Hoya curtisii... is it variegated??? That is gorgeous too! I can only imagine what the bloom looks like on that one!
