I wonder if the nursery had this one mislabeled? It doesn't look like Hoya australis which has rounded leaves. With those pointed leaf tips it looks more like a variety of Hoya carnosa. Two for comparison to the plant in your photo:

I see what you're saying. Very likely. I'll ask for it to be moved.

Thank you for noticing this.
