Alocasia Infernalis 'Black Magic' | Fast EU shipping | Grown with love in the EU | Pet-toxic
Summary: This rare Alocasia boasts mesmerising almost-black leaves with a metallic sheen, bringing dramatic tropical depth to your indoor plant jungle.
Prefers bright, indirect light. Avoid direct sun, which can scorch its delicate dark leaves. Perfect for east- or north-facing windowsills or under a grow light.
Keep soil consistently moist but never soggy. Loves high humidity (60–80%), making it ideal for terrariums or bathrooms with filtered light. Mist regularly or place on a pebble tray.
Use a well-draining aroid mix rich in organic matter, such as coco coir blended with perlite and orchid bark. Repot annually in spring if roots become crowded.
⚠️ Toxic if ingested by pets or humans. Keep out of reach of curious cats and dogs.
Grows compactly with mature leaves reaching deeper hues. Propagate by dividing rhizomes during repotting in spring or early summer.
Reduce watering slightly in winter dormancy. Ensure temperatures remain above 18°C year-round to avoid stress or leaf drop.
Watch for spider mites or thrips in dry conditions. Yellowing or drooping leaves often indicate overwatering or cold drafts.
Alocasia Infernalis is native to the humid rainforests of Borneo. The ‘Black Magic’ cultivar is prized among collectors for its uniquely intense dark foliage and subtle purple undertones.

Perfekt 👌
These came in perfect shape and are so easy. We put them on rocks and soak them in water once a week. Two weeks now and they still look so fresh. That never happens with our plants.
