🦇 BLACK BAT FLOWER (Tacca chantrieri)

💰 Price: Package of 4 seeds

🌺 The Black Bat Flower, scientifically known as Tacca chantrieri, is one of the most fascinating and exotic tropical plants in the world. Belonging to the yam family (Dioscoreaceae), this unique species produces deep black blossoms that resemble a flying bat, complete with long, flowing filaments known as “whiskers.” Each dramatic bloom can reach up to 30 cm (12 inches) across, with whiskers stretching up to 70 cm (28 inches), giving it an otherworldly appearance.

🌿 Plant Type: Tropical perennial (understory species)
🌸 Flower Color: Deep black, purple-black with greenish tones
🦇 Bloom Shape: Bat-like with long whiskers and winged bracts
🌍 Origin: Thailand, Malaysia, Southern China (Yunnan Province)

Native to the humid rainforests of Southeast Asia, this plant thrives in warm, shaded, and moist conditions. It naturally grows beneath the forest canopy, where filtered sunlight, high humidity, and rich organic soil provide the ideal environment. The large, glossy leaves form a lush base from which the incredible flowers emerge on tall stalks, creating a dramatic and tropical focal point for any greenhouse, conservatory, or indoor plant collection.

🌸 Botanical Details & Growth Habits

  • Tacca chantrieri typically reaches heights of 60–90 cm (24–36 inches).*

  • It prefers indirect light, mimicking the dappled shade of its native jungle habitat.*

  • Keep the soil consistently moist but well-drained to avoid root rot.*

  • The plant loves high humidity (above 60%) and warm temperatures (20–28 °C / 68–82 °F).*

  • Use rich, humus-based potting mix with good aeration.*

Closely related to this species is Tacca integrifolia, known as the White Bat Plant, which produces larger flowers with white-veined bracts and grows up to four feet tall.

🌱 Cultivation & Care

  1. 🌾 Sowing: Soak seeds in warm water for 24 hours before planting.

  2. 🌡️ Temperature: Maintain 25–30 °C (77–86 °F) for germination (can take 6–12 weeks).

  3. 💧 Watering: Keep soil moist, but never soggy.

  4. ☁️ Humidity: Ideal humidity is 70–80%; mist regularly or use a humidifier.

  5. 🌤️ Light: Indirect sunlight, shaded environment — avoid direct afternoon sun.

  6. 🌿 Repotting: Every 2–3 years; use large pots to allow rhizome development.

🌸 Symbolism & Uses

The Black Bat Flower is often associated with mystery, transformation, and protection. In traditional Asian folklore, it symbolizes luck, rebirth, and hidden wisdom. The striking bloom makes an extraordinary centerpiece in botanical gardens, terrariums, or collector displays.
