2 Alocasia Black Velvet 'Reginula' XL Starter Plants – Bare Root – Alocasia reginula

Bring one of the most popular jewel Alocasias to your collection with this set of 2 Alocasia Black Velvet ('Reginula') XL starter plants. This compact tropical species is prized for its velvety, nearly black foliage highlighted by striking silvery-white veins, making it a favorite among collectors and indoor plant enthusiasts.

This listing includes two (2) XL starter plants originally grown in 2-inch nursery pots. Please note these are starter plants inserted into 2-inch pots and are not fully rooted into the pots. Each plant has a fully established root system and is shipped bare root with its original soil pod carefully wrapped to help protect the roots during transit. Please do not remove or disturb the soil pod upon arrival. The 2-inch nursery pots are not included.

Alocasias are naturally sensitive to shipping and may experience temporary leaf loss during transit. As rhizomatous plants, healthy specimens typically produce new growth from their bulbs after acclimating to their new environment.
