This plant belongs to my sister's step-daughter. Julie said she has had the plant for years and keeps it in her well lit bathroom. This year it bloomed for the first time, and she would like to know more about the plant. The leaves are like a succulent type plant. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Not Hindu Rope. The leaves are twisted on that one. Might be Hoya carnosa. Mine is 50 years old now. It has darker pink flowers but the leaves are the same.

Wow, what a beautiful plant! I've never seen that one before. When I saw the thumbnail my first thought was mountain laurel but it does look different.

This is way different then a ML. It is a tropical vine. You can google Hoya to see all the varieties. They are beautiful and easy to grow IMHO.

Yes that is a Hoya! HOYA CARNOSA MAYBE?
