All of these plants now fall under Hoya verticillata. They all have similar flowers, but the leaves vary quite widely. Some are highly scented and some have almost no fragrance. This particular one is highly perfumed.

It took me around six years of careful tending to get it to flower for the first time in a grow tent a couple of years ago. Now it is flowering willy-nilly on the windowsill. I am starting to rethink my growing strategy on some of these plants!
There are so many different Hoyas all calling themselves Hoya clemensiorum now. This is the flowers of one that April Mall sent me from Unsolicited Plant Talks:
I love this combination! The name of the inner variegated Hoya Bella is: Hoya Bella ‘Luis Bois’.
Hard to believe that that both of these plants are in the same genus!
I don’t know if I have featured these together before, but in case I haven’t, Hoya undulata on the left and obtusifolia on the right:
It is not everyday that these two beauties are flowering at the same time so I had to take this shot!
Hoya Sunrise is readily available; it is inexpensive and well worth adding to the collection. I am gravitating more and more to these easy to care for Hoyas as get older, and this one really fills the bill. This is a plant that gets my highest recommendation!
The blooms of Hoya Sunrise smell much more like Hoya obscura than H. lacunosa.
So many of these Hoya hybrids are just so average, but Hoya Sunrise stands out in a crowd. It has also stood the test of time.
