I got this Hoya several months ago off the "We will kill this if you don't buy it." rack at Lowes.
It only said "Hoya". Searching PF, I found a String Bean Hoya and that may be which one this is. Not sure.

Anyway, my question. How do you know when it's getting ready to bloom? This one sat like a lump through the winter.
Since the summer weather arrived, I've had it on our back porch and it's putting out growth. Is this where flowers might come from?
I have a photo of what the new "shoots" look like.
And a photo of the whole plant that may confirm its ID.

Many, many thanks for your help!
Deb
