How to care for an Alocasia Black Velvet

Watering Alocasia Black Velvet

An Alocasia Black Velvet prefers evenly moist soil, but not soggy roots. Water about once a week and always check that the top layer of potting soil is almost dry. Overwatering can cause root rot; therefore, it's best to use a mixture with well-draining components such as perlite or potting soil for Alocasia .

Light for Alocasia Black Velvet

This plant grows best in bright, indirect light. Direct sunlight can burn the dark green, almost black leaves, while too little light affects leaf color and growth. Place your Alocasia near an east- or west-facing window, or combine it with houseplants that have similar light requirements, such as the Monstera Minima .

Potting soil and fertilizer

An airy, slightly acidic potting soil is ideal for aroids. You can use a ready-made mix or mix your own with peat-free potting soil supplemented with hydroponic clays and perlite. Fertilize every two weeks during the growing season (spring and summer) with a balanced liquid plant food.

Common problems and solutions

Yellow leaves

Yellow leaves are often caused by a combination of too much water and insufficient light. Check your watering and adjust it to a weekly routine when the surface is dry. Also read the tips in our blog post about caring for Alocasia for additional background information.

Plant dripping

Moisture drips at the edges could be guttation, a natural process in which the plant releases excess water. This occurs primarily at night or in high-humidity environments. As long as the soil isn't constantly soaked, there's no reason to panic.

Plagues

Spider mites, thrips, and scale insects can plague your Alocasia Black Velvet. Inspect the undersides of the leaves weekly and treat minor infestations immediately with a mild soap solution or use sticky traps to repel fungus gnats . For severe infestations, you can also use an organic spray or seek advice via our contact page .

Roots emerge from the bottom of the pot

If the roots grow out of the drainage holes, your plant needs a larger pot. Choose a pot one size larger and change the top layer of potting soil as needed. Want to know exactly when repotting is best? Then browse our collection of potting soil and accessories for suitable materials.

Brown edges on the leaves

Brown edges are often caused by dry air or too much direct sunlight. Place a humidifier nearby or group your Alocasia with other air-loving plants like Asplenium Parvati . Avoid drafts and bright sunlight to keep the leaves healthy.

Great basic!
Special Size: Long Sleeve, Size: Large, Color: Ocean Blue
I love these tops, not too cropped but perfect length. I also have sensory issues and need long sleeves when i workout and these wick away moisture + are the right thickness. Usually 19$ but i waited for them to go down 25% right before prime day (yes, that’s right before). Since its amazon basic brand, if you don’t need it right away i suggest watching price. Worth it at 19$ but why pay more.

As Good as My Skims. Seriously!
Special Size: Long Sleeve, Size: Small, Color: Black
Honestly, this top is as good as my Skims! The fit is flattering, the fabric feels smooth and supportive, and it keeps its shape wash after wash. I wear it for workouts, errands, and even layering under blazers — it’s that versatile. Great quality for the price.

good fit for cheap!
Special Size: Short Sleeve, Size: Small, Color: White
I like the material it’s more athletic, not see through, cuts off at a flattering length, good stretch my only point deduction is that I wish it took in a bit more in the waist to fit a bit better I wear a 32D bra with a 25-26in waist

Cute but beware of the length
Special Size: Long Sleeve, Size: X-Large, Color: Bright Red, Special Size: Long Sleeve, Size: X-Large, Color: Bright Red
It’s cute but the fit is off. If you’re short like me (5’4) then the leggings and sleeves are long but overall it’s cute. I just don’t wear it often because of the fit.
