Hoya Parasitica 'Black Margin' - Striking Wax Plant with Dark Edges
Hoya parasitica 'Black Margin' stands out among wax plant varieties with its distinctive appearance and low-maintenance care requirements. This variety features textured, oval-shaped green leaves with pointed tips, each bordered by dramatic dark purplish-almost black margins that give the plant its name.
Flowering Characteristics
This hoya produces clusters of creamy white flowers that are highly fragrant, making it a sensory addition to any indoor space. The porcelain-like blooms add visual interest and fill rooms with their pleasant scent when the plant reaches maturity.
Care Requirements
Like most hoyas, the 'Black Margin' variety prefers to dry out between watering sessions. This drought-tolerant characteristic makes it suitable for those who prefer low-maintenance houseplants. When the soil becomes dry to the touch, water thoroughly until the potting media is completely saturated and excess water drains through the drainage hole. This watering method ensures the roots receive adequate moisture without risking root rot from overwatering.
Growth Habit and Display Options
The trailing and vining nature of Hoya parasitica 'Black Margin' makes it versatile for various display methods. It works well in hanging baskets where the vines can cascade naturally, or trained on a trellis or support structure for vertical growth. The contrasting leaf margins create visual depth whether displayed as a trailing specimen or climbing plant.
