Love your Hoya blooms! I've recently acquired some small Hoya rooted cuttings. The leaves on one variety are green and the other variegated. Blooms will be a surprise as I purchased my plants at a thrift shop for 50 cents. Are these slow growers?

Nice close up, do you have any pictures of the entire plant?
