Hey there Hoya heads! I am in need of some insight from folks with more knowledge than myself. So a while back I saw a Hypolasia for sale on a local forum that I had just missed the sale of. Ever since then I have been hunting for it. I recently posted an ISO in a purge group and someone came back with something I just am not sure what to make of. I don’t know if it’s a juvenile version or if it’s a different cultivar. It looks similar but is missing the main ab like texture on the leaves that is drawing me to this plant. The first four photos are of what I fell in love with and had hoped for and the last three are of the cuttings that are being offered. What am I missing? Where can I find more information? Any information or insight would be so greatly appreciated!

I’m not an expert but those cuttings don’t look the same at all
The one being offered to you looks like a pandurata or rotundiflora
What you’ve been offered looks like a hypolasia to me because from my experience, the plant is really prone to putting out these wonky unattractive leaves especially on the first few nodes. There are many different collections of this plant in the trade, I have three different ones and I find this ‘long leaf’ clone to be particularly tricky to grow.
