When this plant first became available it was insanely expensive, and I stayed away from it. After picking one up a few years ago on a lark, not all that enthusiastically, it turned into one of my most spectacular plants. It is now available almost everywhere for very cheap prices and I encourage everyone to have this plant in their collection. It is the easiest to grow of any variegated Hoya that I have ever attempted and the most rewarding.
