Hoya callistophylla IML 3576 ‘Black Cat’ – rare climber with bold veining

Hoya callistophylla IML 3576 ‘Black Cat’ is a rare and highly desirable clone celebrated for bold, dark-green leaves with deep, embossed veins and clusters of sweetly scented, star-shaped flowers. Originating from the humid lowland forests of Sabah, Borneo, this vigorous climbing species thrives indoors with steady warmth, bright light, and patient care. For collectors seeking both foliage drama and reliable flowering, ‘Black Cat’ is a true standout.

What makes Hoya callistophylla ‘Black Cat’ unique

  • Distinctive veining: Broad, leathery leaves with striking dark, recessed veins that intensify with age.
  • Vigorous climber: Rapid-growing, semi-woody vines ideal for moss poles, trellises, or hanging baskets.
  • Scented umbels: Clusters of pale yellow to greenish blooms releasing a gentle, sweet fragrance.
  • Adaptable indoors: Handles typical indoor humidity and bright, filtered light with ease.

Essential facts about Hoya callistophylla ‘Black Cat’

  • Origin: Lowland forests of Sabah, Borneo.
  • Growth form: Epiphytic climber with trailing or twining vines.
  • Leaf size: Mature leaves can exceed 20 cm under ideal conditions.
  • Toxicity: Generally considered non-toxic to humans; milky latex may irritate skin or sensitive pets if ingested or chewed.

Care guide for Hoya callistophylla ‘Black Cat’

  • Light: Prefers bright, indirect light; avoid harsh midday sun that can scorch foliage.
  • Water: Let the top 2–3 cm of substrate dry before watering again. Overwatering is the most common cause of root issues.
  • Humidity: Ideal above 60 %, but tolerates down to about 45 % if airflow is good.
  • Temperature: Best between 18–28 °C; protect from cold drafts and sudden drops.
  • Substrate: Loose, airy mix such as orchid bark, perlite, coco coir, and a small portion of compost or humus.
  • Fertiliser: Use a balanced liquid fertiliser at half strength every 4–6 weeks during active growth.
  • Propagation: Stem cuttings root easily in water, perlite, or sphagnum moss under warm, humid conditions.
  • Pruning: Trim long vines to shape and encourage branching; avoid cutting peduncles, as blooms arise from older spurs.

Troubleshooting tips for Hoya callistophylla ‘Black Cat’

  • Yellowing leaves: Most often caused by excess watering – let the mix dry further and check drainage.
  • Curling or speckled leaves: Inspect for spider mites or mealybugs and adjust humidity and airflow.
  • No flowers yet: Keep the plant slightly root-bound and provide consistent bright light; flowering increases with maturity.

Extra growing advice for Hoya callistophylla ‘Black Cat’

To echo its native habitat, give Hoya callistophylla ‘Black Cat’ stable warmth, bright filtered light, and time to fill its pot before repotting. Flowering improves as the plant matures, so avoid frequent disturbances or unnecessary pruning. With patient, consistent care, ‘Black Cat’ develops into a statement plant that rewards you with lush veined foliage and sweetly perfumed umbels.

Botanical background and etymology of Hoya callistophylla ‘Black Cat’

Hoya callistophylla was first described by T. Green in Fraterna 13(4): 2 (2000) and belongs to the family Apocynaceae. The name comes from Greek: kallos (“beautiful”) and phylla (“leaf”), directly referencing its striking foliage.

Clone IML 3576 was collected in Sabah, Borneo, by David Liddle and is distinguished by darker pigmentation and more dramatic venation compared to typical forms. The name ‘Black Cat’ is an informal collector’s name for this particularly dark-veined clone.

Bring a touch of Sabah’s rainforest elegance into your home and enjoy the combination of bold veined foliage and sweet, starry blooms for years to come.

Very Durable
This is the second wallet I've bought. Same type. First one was for a durability test. Pull, stretch, bend, twist at the seam, and it held up much better than similar wallets in the same price range. Highly recommend this wallet if you are hard on them like I am. Plenty of space for cards, cash, receipts, random papers and other items that seem to find their way into it throughout the year. And still doesn't feel big and bulky to sit on. I was a die hard trifold guy for many years because I couldn't find a bifold that could hold all my stuff in it. But this bifold holds everything and still has plenty of room for more. If you want a good quality wallet for a decent price the mossy oak Carhartt bifold is definitely the way to go, you won't be disappointed.

A very handsome watch, easy to read.
Size: 25mm, Color: Two-Tone/Two-Tone/White/25mm
I have worn Timex watches most of my life, aside from an occasional costly dress watch. This one is the prettiest yet! Pros: the gold and silver mix of the band is the prettiest one I have seen. With the flexible stretch band. It is easy and comfortable to wear. So far, it is totally accurate on time, functional for easy vision with the large face. The light is easily activated with a slight pressure on the watch stem. Cons: It fits me better than most watches but my wrists are fairly narrow. If you suspect it might be too tight for you, I would suggest looking at the specs for this watch and measuring your comfort needs. It does not flop around on my wrist like other watches I have owned. The only problem that forces me to buy a new Timex every 2 years is that if one uses the backlight button once a night, it normally stops lighting. After that, the actual watch battery is usually soon to go. Summary: A very pretty watch with an easy to read face, helpful light activated by stem. Great value, always worth the reasonable price.

Great watch. Not too big, has a second hand and a light.
Size: 25mm, Color: Silver-Tone/Silver-Tone/White/A/25mm
I am a nurse, so this watch is perfect for administration of timed meds. The band is too big for my small wrist so I bought a leather band. I was not able to figure out how to remove segments from the original band, but a jeweler would be able to do this. It is pretty small, compared to the bigger watch faces that seem to be popular now.

Band a little snug, but great watch
Size: 25mm, Color: Two-Tone/Gold-Tone/White/25mm
I love Timex watches. This one is very attractive. The stretch band is a little tight. It is also hard to set the date in the little tiny date box. The packaging was minimal; looks like it wouldn’t take any rough handling. But the watch itself works great and is easy to read.

Classic & classy
Size: 25mm, Color: Silver-Tone/Silver-Tone/White/25mm
This watch was the perfect gift. The wrist band was a great fit. The backlight makes it easy to see the time in the dark. You can't beat a Timex.
