Re: Alocasia Black Velvet

From: Krzysztof Kozminski kk at kozminski.com> on 2000.12.06 at 19:53:59(5761) A repeat of my post from the past: Alocasia Black Velvet likes low light and high humidity (considering Wilbert's posting about thriving in dry conditions: you were lucky it did not get spider mites). Mine languished in my San Jose, California greenhouse (50% shade cloth on walls, 70% on ceiling) until I put it into the dead/disappointing plant recycling area (under the table). It resprouted multiple levaes (after having flowered). I got it back on the table, and it went back into stupor.
