Hoya Krohniana 'Black'
The Hoya krohniana ‘Black’ is a rare and dramatic houseplant that turns heads with its striking, heart-shaped leaves that can develop a deep, nearly black coloration under the right conditions. When grown in bright light with several hours of gentle direct sun, its foliage transforms from deep green to a rich, velvety black, creating an unforgettable visual statement. Its compact, trailing habit makes it perfect for hanging baskets, shelves, or small spaces, and when in bloom, it produces clusters of creamy-white, star-shaped flowers with a sweet fragrance that beautifully contrasts its dark foliage.
Caring for Hoya krohniana ‘Black’ is straightforward. It thrives in bright, indirect light but truly reaches its dramatic potential when given some direct morning or late-afternoon sun. Like other Hoyas, it prefers to dry out between waterings, making it a forgiving choice for those seeking a low-maintenance yet eye-catching plant. With its rare, color-changing foliage, fragrant blooms, and easygoing nature, the Hoya krohniana ‘Black’ is a show-stopping addition to any plant lover’s collection.
