Blackvine was a type of green parasitic vine that grew on the planet Dagobah. In Dragonsnake Bog, blackvine had formed natural bridges over portions of the swamp close to the hut of the exiled Jedi Yoda[1] by 3 ABY.[2] Blackvine also grew on top of the nearby sentient Cave of Evil, which thought of itself as a trap beneath the blackvine leaves.[3]

Behind the scenes

Blackvine was first mentioned in the 2016 reference book Star Wars: Complete Locations, in a section written by James Luceno and illustrated by Richard Chasemore and Hans Jenssen.[1] The location originally appeared in the Star Wars Legends continuity, where it was first mentioned in the 2004 reference book Inside the Worlds of Star Wars Trilogy, which was also written by Luceno, with illustrations by Chasemore and Jenssen.[4]
