Hi Lin,

Awe bless you thanks for your warm welcome 🤗 and thank you for responding to my question…

I found the exact thing when I googled it… the leaves were much bigger, elongated and heavily veined… that's what I was expecting to receive… but as you've said yourself what I have looks very much like your hoya 'Rosita'.

It's interesting that there's not many hits come up on Google for hoya sp. philippines either, I'm staring to wonder if this is a name that's being used maybe only in the uk or an alternative name for the plant… like there's a few different names for carnosa 'Krimson Queen'. I took a look on Vermont Hoyas website and he doesn't even have a sp. philippines listed and he's hundreds listed there so I'm wondering if this plant exists at all?!?

It's all very confusing… 🤪😂

As you suggested I went back and had another look at the website I bought it from and yes they do have another listing that looks similar to my plant… and yes it's hoya 'Rosita' would you believe it…

I'll take all this info back to them and see what they can do for me…

Your hoyas are beautiful by the way Lin… I've been slowly reading through the forum posts on here and the plant pictures you've posted are stunning… they obviously love your green thumb and Florida weather…

I really appreciate you taking the time to answer my question… you've been very helpful…

Many Blessings, Annabel x
