so my dad used to have quite a bit of Hoyas and they were my favorite out of all of his plants. Long story short he had given his plants to somebody else they had killed them. They tried to give them to me to revive them, and I’m not capable of that, any recommendations? a few are damaged beyond repair but I’d like to save the others
I’d suggest trying to mimic their natural habitat…bright light, warmth, and humidity. Do you know the cause of their decline?

I’d get a seed starting tray with a humidity dome and line it with some sphagnum moss. Take cuttings from anything that still leaks white sap and lay them on the sphagnum just burying the cut tip in the moss. Dipping the cuttings in some rooting hormone first helps the process too. Keep the sphagnum moist and keep the lid closed with the little vents partially open so it gets nice and humid. You could also put it on a seedling heat mat to help get some roots growing. Don’t give them too much light at first because it’s hard on them when they have no roots. Don’t let the moss dry out. Keep it moist constantly. If they’re viable they should start to root.
