Description

The Marcgravia sp. 'White Line' is a rare and attractive shingling vine, distinguished by its delicate white central vein running down each small, rounded leaf. As the plant climbs, its neat overlapping leaves press against vertical surfaces, forming the striking shingle pattern that makes Marcgravia so popular in terrarium builds.

This variety thrives in warm, humid conditions with bright but indirect light. It requires a moisture-retentive substrate and vertical structures such as cork, driftwood, or stone to climb. With stable humidity, it will establish steadily and create a living wall or background that enhances the naturalistic look of your enclosure.

Prized for its subtle variegation and refined growth, the Marcgravia sp. 'White Line' is an excellent choice for collectors and terrarium enthusiasts seeking something a little different from standard green forms.
