Hoya krohniana ‘Black Leaf’ – Rare Glossy Elegance 🖤🌿

Hoya krohniana ‘Black Leaf’ is a highly sought-after trailing hoya known for its small, heart-shaped leaves that darken to a deep emerald or almost black hue under bright light. With a sleek and dramatic appearance, this variety is perfect for hanging pots, trailing shelves, or even terrariums. It’s also capable of producing clusters of fragrant, creamy-white flowers when mature.

Key Features:

✔ Compact vines with dark, heart-shaped leaves
✔ Foliage can turn nearly black in bright light
✔ Produces sweet-scented, starry blooms
✔ Rare, slow-growing, and ideal for collectors
✔ Excellent in small pots, hanging displays, or propagation setups

Care Instructions:

• Light: Thrives in bright, indirect light – strong light helps darken the foliage

• Watering: Allow soil to dry out between waterings – do not overwater

• Humidity: Enjoys moderate to high humidity – mist lightly if air is dry

• Soil: Use a light, chunky mix – orchid bark, perlite, and peat or coco coir

• Feeding: Fertilise monthly during spring and summer with a gentle, balanced fertiliser

• Temperature: Prefers 18–26°C – keep away from cold windows or draughts

🌿 Tip: Avoid repotting too often – Hoyas prefer slightly snug pots and bloom best when slightly rootbound.
