# Hoya nerds! Just got a Hoya acuta (aka verticillata) albomarginata…

_Geplaatst door FriendofVeg op 2024-01-06_

Hoya nerds! Just got a Hoya acuta (aka verticillata) albomarginata from online seller. See pics. Leaves vary from seemingly unaffected to severely. Black spots are in the plant tissue, and cannot be wiped away. Plant seems generally heathy overall. Any ideas what might cause this? Ordered with two other Hoyas (diff species) that appear unaffected as well.

It’s actually most likely edema from inconsistent watering. There’s a great blog specifically about black spots on Hoya on UnsolicitedPlantTalks website. It’s not going to spread or harm the plant at all. It can be prevented in the future though.
