Have you checked it for pests? Pests, like aphids, scale, or mealybugs, feed on plant sap and excrete a sticky residue known as honeydew. This honeydew can attract mold, leading to a black sooty appearance on the plant. I’d move your other plants away from it. It could also be a bacterial or fungal infection.  
Some plants naturally secrete sap, especially around new growth or during certain seasons, as part of their normal physiological processes. I don’t know anything about this variety of plant. Maybe do some Googling. I start by inspecting the plant for pests. Good luck 💚
