Can someone shed light on what this plant is. I got it several years ago as a small cutting on Ebay. The seller didn't know what it was either but I thought the leaves were sort of cute...... The leaves used to be a nice uniform green. I think lighting/water had something to do with the spots. Leaves are hard! Vine has grown slowly but then I only water infrequently.
Was too embarrased by state of my plant so I clipped a few vines and stuck in new pot with repotted plant. Maybe this gives you a better idea of what this plant looks like.
Name: Carol Noel Hawaii (near Hilo) It's all about choices.
Totally agree with mj! D. oiantha. Flowers are TINY...white (as I remember). Sweet plant to grow... Dischidia are cousins of hoya...first cousins actually....growing conditions very similar.
I'll have to look up that plant. I always thought it looked like it could be related to hoya which is probably why I liked it. I think its a super cool little plant. It was really pretty before the leaves got all the sores. I'll pay a little more attention and see if I can't give it a healthy glow again.
Actually I thought it was sitting beside an East window when those sore appeared but I can't swear to that. I'm really goo at letting it dry out (too good maybe) but I will try misting. Because neither I, nor the seller knew what it as I tried not to hover.............and hey is alive.

Well you've got half the battle there !!! I can't tell you how many plants I've killed trying to figure out what they wanted/needed.
