The first pic looks like a Hoya Carnosa Jade.

The first ones is a Hoya Meliflua. See the photo. It has more fertilizer. So it’s dark in the photo. Grows like crazy.

The second is a Hoya Insularis. The Insularis is having watering issues. I can’t tell if it’s over or under watered. It’s too pale with yellow tips. I would check the soil. Let it dry out completely before watering again. Add diluted fertilizer twice a month. My Insularis is in the photo. She gets morning sunlight in a 3 inch pot.

Note that all of the leaves of my Hoya Insularis are above the soil to prevent rot. I recommend removing some of the soil to ensure the leaves are above ground.

Thanks for the info. I have transplanted her and hopefully she will thrive.
