    It’s spelled cumingiana, so you should be able to find that one. I’m not sure about the others. Maybe the ones with common names like silver lady and silver dollar, I’d look up their scientific name and search for that rather than what sounds to be a common name.

    I look up where the plant is from and what requirements it has. I also look at the leaves and then I pick the Hoya from Planta that most closely resembles the one I’m trying to add. If the Planta option has all the same soil, watering and light requirements it should prompt you to care for your plant at the correct times. Just change the name to your specific plant so it shows up correctly on your task list.

    Also if you have time, suggest an addition to Planta and eventually it will end up in the database. I think you need to upload two pics of the plant and the scientific name and maybe a few other things(it’s been a while since I’ve done it)

    Silver lady is just an imperialis selected for its silver leaves. Argéntea princess is just a carnosa. If you look into their scientific names you’ll find they are more common species that have been selected for silver leaves.

    When I can’t find my specific Hoya species on here, I add one that’s basic, like "wax flower” often pops up. I use that, then go in and edit the picture and name and save it with my own, accurate identifier. I always use my own personalized care schedule too, because mine are hydro and most are in a cabinet under grow lights, requiring a lot more water than this site automatically sets it for. Good luck!
