These are peduncles where the flowers grow. Counting the rings on the peduncle shows the number of times it has bloomed. There will be flower buds on it when it is about to bloom. So, don’t cut them off.

Hoya Krohniana easily blooms given sufficient light. My Krohnianas bloom all summer. The photo shows one of my Hoya Elliptica plants that bloomed several times. 🪴🍀
