Hoya macgillivrayi is really the Hoya that made me the addicted, Hoya obsessive, person that I am today. This is a Hoya that I have had since 2007, bought from an Oklahoma woman giving up her big-leafed Hoyas on eBay. It cost me $50, which was a lot of money back then. Best $50 I ever spent! Here is the plant a few months after I bought it back in 2007:

It was lit using a T-5 fluorescent light mounted vertically on the wall. It lived in the bathroom in a window nook. I have started this plant over many times since then. Tomorrow the latest iteration.
