Description

The listing, 5 Black Bat Flower Seeds "Tacca chantrieri" has ended.

Tacca chantrieri 'Black Bat Plant'- A most unusual plant introduced from parts of Malaysia, India, and East Asia, the Bat Plant will make you look twice. The main attraction of the plant is the strange, unique, purple-black flowers. The flowers superficially resemble a bat in flight with long whiskers, and can grow up to 10 inches long. Taccas can be picky about their environmental conditions; however they grow fast and flower a lot when the conditions are just right. The Bat Plant should be planted in partial shade and in a humid and warm environment. Soil should remain consistently moist, not allowing the plant to dry out between waterings. In winter months, when temperatures drop to 40F or lower, the Bat Plant should be moved indoors, or into a greenhouse to protect it from cold damage. Makes a great container plant and is a real conversation piece.

Must be Listia Verified. Thank You.

Do you know what % of the seeds will actually bloom? I know this sounds silly, probably.

Do you mean germinate? If you get the seeds to germinate and they grow into adult plants and you raise them under ideal conditions they will eventually bloom. If you mean germinate or sprout, that all depends on how well you try to follow the guidelines for sowing and caring for Bat Flower seeds, as they are temperamental. As with any seed, nothing is 100% and some seeds will germinate and some won't is all a matter of chance and the conditions they have been put under. I hope this answers your question?
