The Black Bat Flower (Tacca chantrieri) is a rare and unusual plant. One word best describes it: WOW! These flowers will stop you in your tracks! Tacca chantrieri is a beautiful and very exotic tropical plant oddly related to yams.

A bizarre but quite beautiful plant with aspidistra-like foliage and large, darkest purple, almost black flowers which resemble Batman's cape. The most intriguing features though are the bunches of long 'whiskers' protruding from the centre.

It prefers shade and likes to stay moist but not soggy. The unusual black flowers look like bats with long cat whiskers rising on long stems from the broad shiny leaves. It tends to bloom from late summer through fall, often flowering just in time for Halloween.

🦇Tacca Grow and Care Instructions🦇

For best results, sow seeds in good light at any time onto a good soil-based compost.Cover the seeds with fine grit or compost to approximately their own depth. We recommend germinating at 15 to 20 degrees C. Seeds should ideally germinate in between 2 and 6 weeks although they make take considerably longer.

 

Light

In the rooms for the perennial, it is better to choose places in partial shade, avoiding contact of the flower with direct sunlight. If you plan to grow Tacca on the windowsill, then it will be more correct to select windows facing east or west.

Air temperature

Since the perennial is a tropical plant, it needs to provide a certain microclimate for growth and flowering. In summer, the temperature for the flower should be maintained in the range from +18 to +30 degrees. With the arrival of autumn, it is recommended to lower the indicators to +20 degrees, avoiding significant fluctuations and deviations. It is important for the flower not to allow hypothermia, which for the culture is a temperature below +18. It is important to ventilate the room with the flower, however, drafts are best avoided.

Air humidity

A tropical plant will need to maintain a high level of humidity in the room, for this the florist should regularly spray the culture or use household humidifiers. As an effective option for maintaining an optimal level of humidity, you can consider placing a pot with a flower in a large tray with wet expanded clay or moss. As mandatory measures for the care of the flower, the flower will be provided with a night "steam bath". The essence of the humidification method is to place the plant in an enclosed room filled with steam.

 

Watering

In the summer of the "black lily" it is recommended to provide abundant moisture, the top layer of soil in the pot should be constantly moist. In autumn, watering can be somewhat reduced, and as for the winter months, during this period, the soil can be allowed to dry by one third of the total volume. For humidification, it is necessary to use well-kept water at room temperature.

 

Ground

A loose substrate with good aeration will become a suitable ground for Tacca. To grow a flower, you can use a ready-made mixture for orchids, which is sold in garden and flower shops. Also, the soil mixture for a tropical perennial can be prepared independently. For these purposes, it will be enough to combine one part of peat and leaf land with half of sand and turf land.

 

Top dressing

The flower will need fertilizer from spring to mid-autumn. It is best to feed the culture once every 14 days. In winter, it is best to refuse to fertilize the crop. For this purpose, you can use the compositions recommended for flowering houseplants.

 

Transplanting and pruning

There will be no need to transplant a flower into a new container every year. It will be necessary to replace the pot with a larger container only when the root system of the plant completely fills its volume. The work on the transplant is carried out in the spring. It is not necessary to cut the leaves of the takka, only the faded peduncle is subject to removal, otherwise you can spoil the appearance of the culture.

 

Resting phase

The plant goes into a dormant phase in winter. During this period, watering is reduced, and the indoor air temperature is maintained at +20 degrees. It is recommended to spray the flower weekly to observe the appropriate humidity level for the tacca.

 

Seeding

Before planting, the seeds should be washed and dried well. For processing, it is more correct to use a weak solution of potassium permanganate. After that, the seeds are rooted in a nutrient substrate, and germinate at a temperature not lower than +30 degrees.

 

The optimal composition for growing a tropical perennial will be leafy earth mixed with sand in equal proportions. Deepen the seeds into the ground should not be more than 1-1. 5 centimeters, with mandatory drainage at the bottom of the pot. You can expect the first shoots in 4-6 months. During this period, it is necessary to provide the seeds with heat, without temperature changes,and also avoid excessive moisture. Stronger young plants can be transplanted into separate pots.

Buy it!!! Long, soft, warm winter perfection! ( updated after wear)
⚠️ WARNING ⚠️ You'll want to hibernate all winter in it ! 😆 I'm a 5'10" female and THIS THING IS LONG ENOUGH! (If you're tall, you'll understand why I yelled that part lol) I bought the oversized option. It grazes the top of my feet without dragging the ground, which is literally perfect. 👌 It comes vacuum sealed, so pop it in the dryer when you get it to fluff it up. It is so incredibly soft both inside and out, but particularly so on the inside. Its large enough to be fully dressed underneath, but when you feel the softness & warmth - you probably wont want to be. I wasn't sure about the cuffed sleeves, but once I put it on I realized how much better they are than the open type sleeves of another brand I ordered. They allow you to retain 100% function while wearing a blanket, essentially keeping it from getting in your way. I purchased this bc I'm always cold, and also because it just looked so comfortable. It did not disapoint on either front. It's heavy without feeling weighted , and warm without making me sweat. I opted for the tan / beige option, and it was pretty close to the photo color wise. In person the fabric has a tiny bit of sheen/ reflectivity that almost gives it a slight gold tint in some light. Overall though, true to color. Seriously, I think this thing might be perfect. I plan to order additional colors before word gets out and they sell out lol *EDIT TO UPDATE*** Ive been wearing these things all winter ( yes, I purchased another lol) and after repeated wear and washing I will say that they DO lose a little fluff on the faux shearling side (the inside) and the edges have begun to shed a tiny bit. I've been wearing them A LOT though, we're talking about a dozen runs thru laundry at least... not something that happened immediately. And honestly, it wasn't to the point that I noticed it much... until the next one arrived and reminded me how much fluffier they start off lol I would still buy it... just a small update with wear update worth noting.

Love it!
Very comfy and warm. It’s soft and fuzzy and I love it. I will say I’m not a huge fan of the Sherpa fabric at the bottom, not because it’s not soft, just because this material, in general, seems to easily get bits of stuff stuck in it. The snuggie is slight too long (I’m 5’4) so it touches the ground sometimes and it will pick up sticks and grass and food material. I live on a farm and even if I did nothing but vacuum all day there would still be stuff on the floor and I don’t have time to vacuum all day! So, I dislike the Sherpa material going all the way down and folding like it does at the bottom. However, I’ve been extra careful with this one, and I’ve been able to physically pick any debris caught in it. I am contemplating actually cutting it and re-sewing it ever-so-slightly shorter with the outer material folded and sewn inward instead of the internal Sherpa fabric folded outward. Apart from that, it’s roomy, and I actually like the hood, which I didn’t think I would. The pocket is nice sized and also lined with Sherpa fabric. I don’t actually use the pockets to keep my hands warm but more like a kangaroo pouch to transport things like my phone, book/Kindle, or snax as I’m walking with my hands full. I travel with this thing because I’m always cold and it’s amazing. I fly with it. Yeah, I don’t care if I’m wearing this in public at the airport/on a plane, you know why? Because I’m cozy! Flight delayed? Oh, I’ve got my wearable blanket, I’m gonna nap in comfort! 😝 Airplane AC on Arctic Blast? Ha! I’m in an impenetrable cocoon of warmth and with the hood up, you can’t see me, mouth agape, as I sleep so attractively in public. You couldn’t handle seeing me that hot anyway, I’m doing you a favor! 😂 Oh, also, I took it to the hospital with me (because hospitals are basically morgues) so I washed it on hot to sanitize it. It didn’t shrink or ruin it at all, it’s fine.

Well made, accurate color, very warm and roomy, cosy to wear. Very pleased with product. I will be warm this winter! Took about 10 days to ship, then longer to arrive as international. I’ve ordered another and it shipped within a couple of days this time. I reccomend.

Great Buy! Nice robe!
Size: Oversize, Style: Solid, Color: Grey
I love this robe. I bought it for myself as a Christmas present ( 2024) and it’s the best robe I have ever had. It’s soft, warm, long, and very comfortable. I’ve washed it several times over the past year and it still maintains its same quality, looking and feeling as brand new.

Warm and comfy
Size: Adult, Style: Solid, Color: Black
Super soft, warm and comfy. I bought the adult size. I'm 5'11" and medium build. It's roomy and comes down to the middle of my shin. Typical robe style except that it does not open. It slips on like a shirt. May not be great if you have to go to the bathroom a lot. Otherwise awesome, I bought 2 for my sister's.
