Alocasia Reginula 'Black Velvet'
-
The Alocasia Reginula 'Black Velvet', often called the Little Queen or Black Velvet Elephant Ear, is a highly sought-after "Jewel Alocasia" known for its deep, luxurious foliage. This plant is a compact, slow-growing species of the Alocasia genus, native to the tropical rainforest underbrush of Southeast Asia, particularly Borneo.
The leaves are its defining feature: thick, rigid, heart-shaped ovals with a surface that appears velvety and matte-black (deep, dark green), dramatically contrasted by striking silvery-white veins.
-
Bright, indirect light is essential for maintaining its dark color.
Allow the top 1–2 inches of soil to dry out completely before watering thoroughly.
A loose, airy, and very well-draining aroid mix is critical.
