Hi everyone, I’m wondering if you seasoned Hoya lovers can answer what type of Hoya this is?

I received 2cuttings in a plant trade \& they’d been rooting, I’ve just potted them up (hence the damp soil ) 😂

The one had 2 leaves, now 3 so  
I can only assume it’s going ok..  
seems to be growing steadily 🤷🏻‍♀️

Any advice will be much appreciated

Thank you 😊

That is a Hoya Krimson Queen!

Hoya carnosa outer variegated. 😊 This Hoya has thicker leaves and appreciates drying out between waterings. When it’s bigger, it would like morning sun to help ot produce peduncles and ultimately blooms! I have one posted around my instagram grid.  
Search @herektty to follow me. My entire account is Hoyas of different species!

Hoya Crimson Queen for sure! Mine loves the east window, it’ll also love something to grow up!

Thats funny because I’d tried different windows \& it does seem to like the bright but gentle morning sun in my dining room, which must be east (sunrise)

What would be good options for climbing? Moss pole?

Mine also loves the East window and is one of the most beautiful Hoyas IMO 😊
