ID help-please! Was gifted this as an Obovata or Dinner Plate. Searches came back primarily as Kerrii (it’s not) or one said Heuschkeliana broad leaf green form juvenile🤷‍♀️ It’s 3 3/4W x 4 1/4L. Not as shiny as photographed. More matte. Can feel veination, otherwise smooth. Is “stiff”, but not particularly thick like an Obovata or Kerrii. Front and back shown in photos. If I can add anything else to help identify, ask and I will add to post. Appreciate any help with ID. Thanks, Beth

    It’s not an Hoya Obovata. I have a few. It could be Hoya Latifolia, aka Dinner plate hoya. It could also be a Hoya Glabra or a Hoya Loyceandrewsiana. Both are big leaf hoyas with similar shapes. 🪴🍀

      Curtisii is super small. About the size of string of hearts

    Very Lat like. Maybe a hybrid? I admit I haven’t seen an OBO up close. Some Hoya look so much alike, you truly can’t positively ID them until and if they flower. I’m glad you said you can feel the venation, because it isn’t visible in the pic. I’m leaning toward it being more like a Lat or a macrophylla. It 1 . Lat from .Sarawak, 2 is a Microphyllia ylla
