    Found this beauty at Home Depot, but like always it has no name on it. Any help identifying is appreciated! Thanks so much.

    Looks like Hoya carnosa 'Variegata', Variegated Wax Plant.

    Thank you so much, I don't think it shows very well in the picture, but one of the leaves is pink and green instead of white and green. Does that change anything or is it still carnosa variety?

    Still H. carnosa 'variegata' - the pink blush is actually typical of some examples of this cultivar.
