🌞 Light & Placement
The Black Cobra thrives in bright, indirect light but tolerates partial shade. Avoid direct midday sun, which may scorch its dramatic foliage. Ideal placement: near east- or north-facing windows in German apartments.
💧 Water & Humidity
Keep soil consistently moist but never waterlogged. Allow the top 2–3 cm of soil to dry before watering again. Loves high humidity—mist regularly or place near a humidifier for best results in dry European winters.
🪴 Soil & Potting
Use a well-draining, airy soil mix enriched with coconut coir, perlite, and bark. Repot every 1–2 years in spring into a slightly larger pot to accommodate its fast-growing root system.
🐾 Toxicity & Safety
Warning: Alocasia Black Cobra is toxic if ingested. Keep away from curious pets and children.
🌱 Growth & Propagation
Expect vigorous growth in warm months. Can be propagated by carefully dividing the rhizomes during repotting.
📆 Seasonal & Special Care
During winter, the plant may slow down or go semi-dormant. Reduce watering and avoid fertilization until new growth appears in spring.
🐛 Common Issues
Yellow leaves: Often caused by overwatering
Brown leaf edges: Typically due to low humidity
Pests: Watch out for spider mites in dry, heated rooms
🧬 Botanical Background
The Alocasia Black Cobra belongs to the Araceae family and is admired for its upright growth and sculptural leaves. Native to tropical Asia, it adapts beautifully to European indoor conditions with the right care.
