Alocasia Black Velvet (Alocasia reginula)

Black Velvet is a miniature alocasia with outstanding foliage. The heart-shaped leaves have a velvety appearance and are dark green to black with prominent white veins. The leaves have a stiff texture. This plant makes a striking statement on a windowsill or interior scape. Grow in bright indirect light and water so the soil stays evenly moist but not waterlogged to keep the root system healthy.
