East or west exposure will net blooms for most of them EVENTUALLY. Most of mine grow on the east side, close to the window, and most of the mature ones bloom. There are some exceptions. But I will say that pubicalyx 'Pink Silver' (which I think is what you have there) is one that has always taken many years to bring to bloom for me, AND once it blooms, it's very stingy. I think a summer outside might be helpful, but I, too, am careful what I put out. Two kinds of Hoyas go out - the ones that aren't doing too hot (in hopes of the fresh air and sunshine making a difference) and those that are duplicates (as I won't risk my mother plants.) But I do have two out on my covered front porch that I keep a close eye on - pubicalyx 'Red Buttons' is one, and I must say it blooms like crazy all summer long. The leaves look less than spectacular (fairly washed out), but it does bloom... Use a bloom booster fertilizer, like Ferti-Lome. The number on it are 9-58-8. THAT gives them a real boost!

It's a dieffenbachia. They like bright light or filtered sun and water when the pot is light when you try to pick it up. If you cut off the leggy tops it should sprout new shoots from the stem. That's the simple carevi give mine. I'm sure someone will come along to give you more comprehensive advice!

Ah good old GW up to its old tricks again. Add just a little too much in a reply and lose everything. Good thing I copied the text so I can add photos one at a time. Lots of sun!!! I grew some from seed and they are/were hardy in the Atlanta area. They were scraggly as houseplants but in the ground they quickly grew. UNTIL we had an ice storm which made them super ugly so I ended up cutting them down when they didn't pretty up that summer. There are two in this photo (I put some smaller ones in a shadier location and they just didn't do that well (hence the reason I said SUN). Then we had an ice storm 3 or 4 years later and bent them near to the ground. Most of the other trees including Leyland Cypress did "pretty" good. Nandina in ice I thought cutting off all the broken ugly branches would force it to grow some new limbs like most trees but not for Eucalyptus. So at the end of summer I cut them to the ground. Good luck on your new "house plants"

Everybody talks about too much N. Let's discuss too much N. In the gardens, I toss organics, and feed weekly with my own mix (mostly urea) at a rate of 0.25 pounds of N per week per thousand square feet. It's a grand total of well over 2 pounds N per month, or far beyond the recommendation. The pots...succulents, perennials, and bulbs are treated rather gently and with organic feeding. Annuals I feed the absolute heck out of. Miracle-Gro plus organics every two weeks. Plus some other stuff I throw in, like some extra urea. And kelp. The result of "too much" N is a lot of blooms--just on gigantic plants (photo below of a strictly average year, August 10th). The difference here is that I've had the soil tested, balanced the garden soil to a decent pH of 6.3 (with a proper calcium-magnesium-potassium ratio, or, don't use a home test which tells you exactly nothing about the right balance), set the phosphorus levels high and balanced other resources high to compensate for phosphorus antagonism, etc. It's not everybody's cup of tea, and some plants absolutely do object to too much N. But...most don't. And in the past, petunias, lantanas, have all been amongst those in my garden that haven't. Actually, ask me about the three foot tall lantana with the tap root I couldn't get out for two years. Gorgeous. Sturdy. Never repeated.
