Thanks Gabi, I have seen pictures of your pachyclada, and yours always seems to be blooming.

I am struggling to unravel the Hoya pachyclada / Hoya subquintuplinervis riddle. I purchased subquintuplinervis several years ago, and for the life of me can't tell the two apart. I have leaves on both that look like pictures on leaves that are on both.

Here is a picture of the subquintuplinervis that I got quite a while ago. I bought it from Janice back in 2005 (ebay). I haven't questioned the identity, as she advertised her hoyas as purchased from David Liddle. However it did not come with an IML #.

Can anyone tell if it is supquintuplinervis or pachyclada? The older leaves are quite a bit smaller than the new ones which are measuring as long as 7 inches.

Thanks for any ideas you may have.
S
