Rare Baby Alocasia Black Velvet Pink Albo Variegated Baby | Fast EU shipping | Grown with love in the EU | Pet-toxic
Summary: This rare baby hybrid combines the luxe velvet-black leaves of ‘Black Velvet’ with enchanting pink-white variegation—offering dramatic beauty and compact charm for stylish indoor collections.
Thrives in bright, indirect light. Avoid direct sun to protect delicate variegated patches. Ideal for brightened corners, glass cabinets, or beside large windows filtered lightly.
Keep soil lightly moist—allow top 2 cm to dry between waterings. Prefers high humidity (60–80%); mist daily or use a terrarium/humidifier to prevent crispy leaf edges.
Plant in a chunky, well-draining aroid mix (orchid bark, perlite, coco coir). Repot gently in spring every 1–2 years when roots fill the small pot.
Toxic to pets and humans if ingested due to calcium oxalate crystals. Keep out of reach of cats, dogs, and children.
Slow to moderate grower. Propagation possible via bulb division once established, but → for now enjoy its baby beauty. Expect dramatic leaf contrast as it matures.
Reduce watering in winter taper, but maintain humidity. Wipe leaves monthly to reveal their velvety sheen and crisp variegation.
Watch out for spider mites in dry air—boost humidity and treat with neem oil if needed. Yellowing leaves or drooping often signal overwatering—ensure good drainage.
This rare hybrid blends Alocasia ‘Black Velvet’ (Araceae) and a variegated ‘Pink Albo’, creating velvet-dark foliage splashed with dreamy pink-white—beloved by rare-plant collectors in Europe.

My experience at plant circle: I ordered 5 plants, alocasia to Slovenia, but Loco was sold out, they informed me about this and gave me the choice of another plant or a refund, my decision is to get another Frydek plant. The shipment of plants arrived carefully packaged without damage. But the alocasia was not in the package, at first I was disappointed, but the next day I was surprised, DPD delivered and made up for my Frydek plant. I received a notification from plant circle that they forgot to send it in the first shipment and sent it back without any additional costs. plant circle is one of the best indoor plant stores, you deserve a rating of 10 not just 5. Thank you.
Diese Alocasia gefällt mir bis jetzt am besten. Sie hatte kaum Versandstress und sieht sehr schön aus.
Alles perfekt
