Hoya verticillata black margin 6165

Hoya verticillata ‘Black Margin’ 🌿
Scientific name: Hoya verticillata (cultivar: ‘Black Margin’; selected for distinctive dark leaf edging).
Origin: Southeast Asia. This climbing/trailing hoya bears medium, lance-shaped leaves with a striking inky rim along the margins; sun-stress can deepen the dark outline and bring warm undertones to the leaf surface. Internodes are moderate, making it suitable for trellises or hanging culture, and the overall look is refined yet bold. We prioritize the name you provided and remove internal codes or typos.
FLOWER DETAILS
Produces clusters of star-shaped flowers (umbels) with creamy-white corollas and contrasting centers; lightly sweet fragrance. Blooming occurs on mature vines from persistent peduncles, typically in warm seasons or under stable bright light.
CARE INSTRUCTIONS
☀️ Light: Bright, indirect light; brief gentle sun helps color the margins, avoid harsh midday rays.
💧 Water: Allow the top layer to dry between waterings; water sparingly in winter.
🌡️ Humidity: Prefers moderate to high humidity for steady growth and neat leaf edges.
🪴 Soil: Airy, fast-draining mix (bark/perlite/coco) to keep roots well oxygenated.
🏺 Potting: Slightly rootbound plants bloom better; repot every 1–2 years.
🌱 Growth rate: Moderate; vines elongate steadily with good light and warmth.
🐾 Pet friendly: Generally considered non-toxic but not for consumption.
