Do these look like Hoya macgillivrayi leaves?

Shelburne Falls, MA(Zone 5a)

I went to a local GH today and noticed a big hoya with interesting leaves. The owner said it was Hoya macgillivrayi and sold me a cutting which had just finished blooming. These leaves look likes ones I've seen posted, but so far I can't find the picture I remember. Does anyone want to verify this for me?

The leaves feel dry and stiff with a slight rippling on the mature ones' edges.

Looks like it probably is. There are a couple other with similar leaves, archboldiana and onychoides, but they usually have a bit narrower leaves, and mac is more common in cultivation, so that'd be my guess.

Think Mark is right, boojum...very possibly IS!
