Plant identify

Hi all.

Am new to this forum and I was wondering if anyone can identify this indoor plant. It's been living in my bathroom for a year now.  It has large green  waxy leaves and a cluster of tiny white  waxy flowers .

Very beautiful indeed.image

    Looks like a Hoya to me.

    Had one yrs ago trailing over a wrought-iron arch in the dining room - a long time ago

    very pretty and lovely scent

    Knowledge is knowing that a tomato is a fruit.
    Wisdom is not putting it in a fruit salad.

    What beautiful flowers on the Hoya - they look like porcelain painted ones! 

    My garden and I live in South Wales.

  • I've got my Hoya in the greenhouse because I like the flowers but I don't like the fragrance, also it will drip necter from the flower which is very sticky so mind where you site the plant.

  • Hi all.
