Hoya sp. Aceh ‘Black Octopus’ – Rare Aceh Hoya with Dark Tentacle-Like Vines

Hoya sp. Aceh ‘Black Octopus’ is a rare and highly collectible unidentified Hoya species from Aceh, Sumatra, Indonesia, known by the distinctive collector name ‘Black Octopus’. It is prized for its dark-toned foliage and arching, tentacle-like vine structure that gives the plant a dramatic, octopus-inspired appearance.

The leaves are typically elongated, narrow to elliptic, and moderately thick, often showing deep green to dark olive coloration, which can intensify under brighter light or mild stress. The growth habit tends to be arching and spreading, with multiple vines extending outward like octopus arms—an unusual and visually striking trait.

Mature plants may produce clusters of star-shaped flowers, but Hoya sp. Aceh ‘Black Octopus’ is primarily valued for its unique form, darker foliage tones, and Aceh locality identity. It performs best in bright filtered light, warmth, humidity, and an airy, fast-draining substrate.

Why collectors love this plant:

• Authentic Aceh-origin unidentified species

• Excellent statement plant for rare Hoya collections

Care overview:
