Alocasia reginula 'Black Velvet'
4” Alocasia reginula ‘Black Velvet’ shown
Alocasia reginula ‘Black Velvet’ is a royal gem among alocasias. The regal velvety dark, almost black leaves contrast beautifully with the silver-white veins. A great choice if you don’t have a lot of space because it remains compact throughout its life.
