My first impluse is to ask for a photo. But I've dealt with this problem before. I've discontinued selling Black Velvet and Imperalis for this reason. Let me ask you this: Did the leaf turn yellow before it dropped? If so you were giving it too much water. If the surface of the soil is dry and you scratch a little to see some moisture, that would be perfect. Those 2 like really dry soil, almost like a cactus! I'm serious. Don't feel bad about the Black Velvet, mine is currently dormant because It got one too many drops of water 2 months ago! I'm ready to give up on it. Give the imperalis tons of indirect light, it likes that alot. ( More light less water.) Hope this helps! -alocasiaaddict.com
