6" Alocasia - Black Velvet

Also known as Elephant Ear plants, Alocasia come in a wide variety of colors and textures. The Black Velvet cultivar, or Alocasia reginula, is so named for the unique velvety surface of its dark, rich leaves, contrasted dramatically by whitish stems and bright leaf veins. 

Alocasia do best in bright filtered or dappled light and high humidity. They are prone to root rot, so a light, airy potting medium and careful watering will help this plant grow full and healthy. Allow the soil to dry almost entirely before watering for strong roots.

This plant comes in a 6″ plastic nursery pot with drainage holes.
