Additional information:
Alocasia is a genus of plants in the Aroid family native to many parts of Asia including but not limited to Indonesia, Malaysia, Philippines and Australia.
There are at least 90 officially recognized Alocasia species, with more discovered and properly named every year. Alocasia come in all sizes, from small to large. Jewel types like Black Velvet tend to stay on the bushier, more compact side.
Alocasia are rhizomatous or tuberous and self reproduce from corms.
Alocasia can go dormant during the cooler months, so try to provide your plant with temperatures above 50deg to ensure that they stay happy and healthy during this period.
Love it. It came looking beautiful and healthy.
Thank you! We're so happy to hear your plant arrived looking beautiful and healthy. Enjoy your new green companion!
This plant is quite small and three of the leaves were already dead and yellow. Another leaf dies within a week. But at this time what is left seems to be getting healthier. I'm crossing my fingers she makes it.
Thank you for your honest feedback! It’s not uncommon for plants to shed a few leaves after shipping as they adjust to their new home. We're glad to hear it's starting to bounce back — with a little time and care, we’re confident she’ll thrive!
As an alocasia collector and enthusiast this plant, the one I recieved, checked ALL the boxes! Came in so very dense, lush, and with so much gorgeous and undamaged foliage! I'm highly impressed and couldn't be happier! This is definitely one of my all time faves; a total staple in my collection! ♡
Very nice healthy plant. Would order again
As always packaging is terrific, ensuring the safety of my new baby. My dragon scale, Rhaegal, joined the fam and is very healthy and beautiful.
