I don't, but I am just "bumping" your post so some more people will see it, and welcoming you to the forum. :)

Hoya does get mentioned around here every once in a while. Here's one: https://www.helpfulgardener.com/forum/vi ... ya#p325057

I have one-Fairly easy to grow-Aphids love it and I have to "clean" mine of them several times during the summer growing season.

I have had hoya before, but I don't have it anymore. It grows slow and it is a vine. I had it in a pot on a small trellis and the vine was just wound around the trellis. It doesn't need that much water and the flowers are waxy.

I have one that I got from a friend's cutting. It stays in all winter, goes out on the porch and then flowers in summer. Water once a month, IF that often. Very low maintenance plant. Once in awhile, when it's outside, it does pick up a few aphids, but I just end up cutting those stems off ~ no problem.
