The one with the thin long leaves and black margins looks like a Hoya sheperdii. Interesting she said not a wayetii because it honestly looks closest to that.

#### Grandma2aDancer replied on 2025-08-01

I thought so too. Do you agree first is Krohniana?

#### Katomarose replied on 2025-08-02

Yes the first one looks like Hoya krohniana to me too.

#### Lisa Anglim replied on 2025-08-02

Correct

#### Lisa Anglim replied on 2025-08-02

Me too.

### Nunyabzwx commented on 2025-08-01

Yeah the one looks like a Hoya wayetii to me. Idk #3

### Nunyabzwx commented on 2025-08-01

And yes the 1sts one looks like a krohniana. Great find.

I went to buy an Epipremnum pinnatum albo and she gifted the others to me! She was an older-ish lady, like myself😆, and she literally had a “Secret Garden” right in the middle of the town! The best thing I came away with was a new found friend😊

#### Lisa Anglim replied on 2025-08-02

I’d be her friend too. lol

### Nunyabzwx commented on 2025-08-01

Aww that is so fun when that happens!! ☺️

You have a lacunosa (not Krohniana as it has a cordate base on all leaves) You also have a Hoya noid for now but I see a peduncle that when it blooms can be photographed for proper id. There are quite a few leaves that look like this plant, including minibelle, (a shepherdii x carnosa) Wayettii and Kentiana (less likely) to name a few.

They are both beautiful so enjoy them!
