Native to the tropical rainforests of Southeast Asia, this rare and captivating specimen thrives in warm, humid conditions with indirect light — ideal for sheltered patios, sunrooms, and bright indoor spaces that mimic its natural forest floor environment. A true collector's plant and conversation piece unlike anything else available, Black Bat Flower is as rewarding as it is rare. Plants arrive in 4 inch pots, well-rooted and actively growing.
