I think the carnosa leaves are a little bit broader/rounder than this one. These leaves seem a bit more slender and elongated. I don't have a huge knowledge of the different Hoya varieties, but I have been longing for a pubicalyx "Chimera", which has narrower leaves like this one. New leaves on the Chimera are also a darker color like this. I think the Chimera is also called "Royal Hawaiian Purple". Hope that helps. Good luck with identification!

'Chimera' is actually an incorrect name. I like the sound of it better, too, but it's just one of those invented by a scheister to sell the same plant under a different name. Hoya pubicalyx cv. Royal Hawaiian Purple is correct. :) It is a pretty plant :)

So the flowers finally opened today. I'll start with the fact that I grow 'RHP' and the leaves are very different. The leaves are very similar to Ban Ngong Ngoy, which I got from Ric on eBay, but the leaves are larger. The flower, however, matches photos I see of Ban Ngong Ngoy...

But I'm pretty sure I have not bought two Ban Ngong Ngoys. I'm not saying it's impossible, but I keep a very detailed database of my Hoyas and it seems unlikely that I wouldn't have added it, which would alert me to the fact that I already had it...

Anyway, any thoughts?

To me the flowers look like pubicalyx, but not the leaves.

I have a reverted KQ who's vines produce this color blooms while the original veriagated vines just produce regular carnosa blossoms. The vines however were the same 'chocolate' color as yours. You have a mystery there although I like the bloom in the picture very much.

I do believe yours is what they called Jungle garden.

I found 'Jungle Garden' on MyHoyas and although the flowers look right, the leaves don't. The photo of the new leaf looks like they are pointed at the tip (I know there's a technical term for this!) but they end up more oval when mature. In Christina's phot, they definitely come to a point.

Here it is, 5 days later, and flowers are still going strong!

Old thread, I know, but could it, by any chance, be cv. Ligia (a Ric Moreir..ricnfl cross)? Parents are Krinkle Eight and motoeski. Mine flowers like that in bright light, flowers in shade tend to be a deeper burgandy.

Another possible candidate could be HSI-037 (IML 461)...the leaves are not usually splashed, but one or two of mine on my plant have some speckles. It is thought to be the "true" pubicalyx.

I have same plant/leaves with lost tags. I hoping someone can give you name too. I bought it from ebay seller "rich".
