Help, I was gifted this plant and I have no idea what it is. The scanner says Natal plum but I’m not convinced. I want to make sure I care for this beauty properly. Any information will be so helpful!

Thank you so much! That put me on the right track. Looks like it may be a hoya cumingiana. Super excited for her to bloom if that’s the case!

SunnyIt’s definitely a Hoya Cumingiana. It’s an easy care plant. Mine is in a 6” pot putting out a few blooms. They smell like ripe mangoes. The sun stress is cool too.

The yellow leaves could indicate over watering. Hoyas like to stay on the dry side or they will quickly develop root rot. Their origin is to climb trees/rocks using aerial roots to get rain runoff from the structures. They put little roots in deep soil. I water my Hoya Cumingiana, then, let the chunky mix completely dry out before watering again.
