Tacca, Bat Flower likes an acidic leafy soil, which is well drained. A mixture of leaf mold and coarse bark works well.

The plants love moisture and can be watered freely, but do not like standing water. Make sure the pots are well drained.

They should be fed a liquid fertilizer, at half strength, monthly.

They like bright filtered light, but not direct hot sunlight.

Keep the seedlings warm, between 70 to 80 degrees F.

Given the above conditions, they are easy to grow!
