Had this house plant for a bit and wondering what it's called. Each flower is about 1/2".

It's a hoya, very tough plant that doesn't like a lot of water

+1... they all need similar care. They don't mind humidity if the soil gets a chance to dry. I've found the climbing type (with either the silver spots or cream and pink variegation) to need more light than the upright type, if you want it to bloom well... but you don't seem to be having any trouble there!

Mine never looked that nice

and for the bonus, the flowers are really fragrant at night
