Wax plant

Wax Plant (Hoya carnosa) is a nice climber with umbels of white to pink star-shaped flowers. We call it Porcelain flower in Finland. My grandmother got a cutting from an elementary school teacher in the early fifties. I remember the white flowers and their perfume every summer all my life. Many other fine houseplants have disappeared because today the rooms are so warm.
