Hoya liddleana Is named for the Liddle’s of Mareeba Australia. David Liddle was and amateur plant scientist and collector who ran a plant nursery with his wife, Iris Marie. Mr. Liddle and Paul Forster described 15 new taxa together. After David died in 2009, his wife kept the plant nursery open for some time. In my early days in the hobby, I placed a number of orders with the nursery which were orchestrated as group orders with other collectors. He knew how to better ship unrooted cuttings better than anyone before, or since. I still have plants that originated with him; his passing was a huge blow to the hobby.
