Bat Plant (Tacca nivea) gets its name from its appearance, large white petals above dark flowers and long bracts, which look like a bat face. I love the plant and the name!

We had one of those at work. Someone moved offices and left it behind. I was the one who watered the plants. I managed to kill it with too much water

This one was flourishing in a very wet area so you must have put a lot of water on yours!

I think someone else was watering it too plus it was in an very badly air conditioned building

It’s pretty, but I don’t see the resemblance.

I kind of see what it’s about, but this photo doesn’t show it. Next time I see one I’ll try and get it from the right angle!
