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. For more tips on substrate and accessories, visit our potting soil and accessories collection.

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.

So much fun
Style: Flying Glow Squirrel
My shepherd loves this thing. He is a true fiend for a frisbee or ball and this is his new favorite toy. He will carry it around just to do so, and that’s a new thing for him. It’s soft which is good for my poor hands, yet it’s durable and stands up to the tests he throws at it. It flies well and hasn’t warped no matter what it’s hit. No tears through any of the chewing yet either. Good size toy that gives hours and hours of fun for the most playful and silly doggos out there!

Beloved dog toy now in glow in the dark canvas.
Style: Flying Glow Squirrel
This is a great frisbie style product with the advantage of glow in the dark visibility. My German Shepherd has been retrieving the original Chuckits for 5 years. They fly through the air and have the advantage of curved design which allows a dog to slide their mouth under it easily when it is on the ground. Awesome dog toy that my dog never tires of. Heavy duty canvas design for durability and washability when it gets muddy.

Great, tough, and will not break your dog’s teeth!
Style: Giggle Fumble
I am the aunt of several different types of dogs and they all love the giggle toys. The problem with most of them is that they are hard to Plastic (I guess so the dog doesn’t bite into the giggle box and disable it). Every pup I know is crazy about the giggle toys, but I’m always afraid they’ll break teeth. This one is very tough material but not hard so that your dog could bite down on it and enjoy the giggle.

Perfect for strong chewers!
Style: EcoFetch
Best balls for dogs who love to tear up toys. My pup tore up regular tennis balls but he can’t tear these up and he loves to just chew them. Will always buy these for our fur baby!

Beagle’s Best Friend
Style: Super Crunch Stick, Style: Super Crunch Stick
This is my dog’s favorite toy! We’ve had it for about 6 months now. She plays with it and chews on it every single day. She takes it everywhere. Despite all her rough housing with it, it is still completely intact, so it is extremely durable! Love this thing! We call it her “crunchy carrot”
