Hoya lacunosa 'Black Queen' | 3-Inch

I like this plant, first of all, because it is a Hoya Lacunosa and Lacunosa are so easy to care for, bloom easily, and grow relatively quickly. I also love their relatively small leaves. The leaf size is small enough to be cute and not take up too much space but large enough that you can get a nice hanging basket quite quickly.

The Lacunosa Black Queen is fairly similar to a Hoya Krohniana Black (which I may also have for sale) but different enough that I can easily tell them apart. The Krohniana has more of a pointed oval shape and the leaves get quite a bit thicker, and because of that, the leaves have more of a texture to them. The Lacunosa Black Queen has the typical Lacunosa shape, which is longer and more narrow. The leaves also don't get as thick and generally have a smooth texture. The Black Queen is also much harder to find.

I often have smaller plants of these available so you may want to check out that listing.

They enjoy:

• watering when the top two inches are dried out

• bright light (no direct afternoon sun)

• 40-60% humidity to help it grow the fastest and produce more leaves
