Looks like a hiya carnosa, maybe carnosa krimson queen
These flowers are immature, they will open to give pretty fluffy flowers, a little patience still. They smell good and the nectar that flows from them is edible
They do look they’re made of plastic don’t they. Ours is called Oscar.

Leave the “spur” after the flowers die. More flowers will come from it.

Hoya carnosa krimson queen
Smells a bit like cocoa. The flowers you have there are buds and will open soon to have blooms that are cute and fluffy, and the nectar tastes sweet

That’s exactly why it’s called porcelain plant I swear this must be the reason for it.
Just wait for it! The flowers look so cool! They smell like tootsie rolls ( I happen to haaate that fake chocolate smell 😂)

It’s Hoya Carnosa or wax flower. My mum has one that her aunt gave her years ago.

Yeah, some Hoya flowers tend to look completely fake. I think they’re amazing.

Just to give one more follow up:
After the flowers are done, **leave the peduncle alone**! (The stem part all the flowers came out of.) Hoyas produce blooms from those over and over again, so don’t cut them off, and the next time your Hoya is ready to flower, you’ll get more flowers from the same spot.

It’s a type of *Hoya*, Wax plant. Buds are still developing, flowers will open soon.
Give it some time
Looks specifically like Hoya Krimson Queen! Like someone else said, the blooms have not opened yet. Congrats on your flowers!
That’s not a fake flower, it’s buds give it a few days and they will open

I’m so jealous of all these beautiful Hoya blooms! Mine just keeps putting out more leafs.
That is so cool. Looks like Legos bonsai flowers.
