One of the most common of pests on Hoya is the dreaded mealybug. Could this be what you have been seeing? But they can also develop powdery mildew, as well. Do a bit of research and let us know what you think your pretty plant has and we can help you further. I disagree a bit with comettose about the care of Hoya. I consider them a high light and a low water plant. Mine is in a sunny window where it receives full sun much of the day. I allow it to dry out quite a bit in between drenchings. Again, let us know about the 'white stuff'. Let's HOPE that it's powdery mildew rather than the dreaded mealies.

Hi casheagle, it is Aptenia Cordifolia Variegata. I've just lost mine last summer, I wonder if you'd like to trade some cuttings of yours with my Aptenia Cordifolia Red Apple. Let me know. Thanks.

The whitish vein in the middle of the one leaf where I can see it better indicates that it certainly could be Common Evening Primrose. They are extremely prolific! I have been using it as a free "groundcover" in an area that I haven't had time or money to plant yet. Also makes a great "trap crop" for Japanese Beetles, I discovered! It is easy to get rid of when you want to-all but the biggest roots pull up fairly easily in moist soil.

Urticaceae looks like a good bet.

I have this same thing. It spreads through runners, can make big clumps. and the flower/seeds are slightly prickly. I've been digging up and pulling out this stuff for the longest. :(

sir/ma'am., for those who are expert or little expert of identifying plants.. please help me., Its leaves are like Nettle but it doesn't have spiky brown-green flowers/seed.. If someone knows this plant/weed.. I really need its common name or scientific name... I think it belongs to Urticaceae but I don't know what GENERA it is more closer... http://www.phytoimages.siu.edu/taxpage/0/genus/Nothocnide.html ............... for those who can help me., thank you very much in advance..

Boehmeria perhaps owing to the opposite foliage in that genus.

How about Mulberry Weed, Fatoua villosa? A relatively new arrival, so it's not in most of the ID books. It showed up for me in a potted plant.

In the Moraceae.

Mulberry weed = alternate leaf arrangement.
Op's plant = opposite arrangement.

Thanks for your answer sir/ma'am weedwoman.,I saw the picture and there is really a big similarity..,but like what sir/ma'am saltcedar said.., Mulberry weed has alternate leaf arrangement and I think the leaves and flower/seeds are not the same too.... maybe this is a close family of the plant I'm looking for....Thanks for the information you gave.,hoping to find out the information about the plant...

MerWin - I only wrote the reminder because you were getting some suggestions which implied people were thinking of US plants, not tropicals.
