Alocasia Black Velvet

Description & Care
Alocasia Black Velvet (Alocasia reginula) is a compact, highly sought-after jewel Alocasia known for its deep, velvety foliage and striking silver veins. The thick, plush leaves have an almost suede-like texture, giving the plant a dramatic, luxurious appearance despite its small size. This species is perfect for collectors who love bold, moody foliage with an elegant finish.
Although small, Black Velvet is a strong grower when given the right conditions and is more tolerant than many other jewel Alocasias.

Temperature: Best kept at 65–85°F. Protect from cold drafts and sudden temperature swings.
