Customer Reviews
This has been a long time wishlist plant of mine and I’m very happy with what I received. One leaf was pretty droopy and yellow when delivered, but there were four other healthy leaves. I haven’t even had a chance to repot yet and another new leaf is coming in. I’m also very impressed with how secure the package was. Thank you for my beautiful plant!
The plant arrived in perfect condition and was beautiful. It’s acclaimed well and I already have a new leaf coming out.
No fungal issues the plant were all good
Alocasia is by far my favorite species and this is why!!!
Love the variegation on this one. She came pest free and leaves are lush. I’m excited to see her leaves get massive.
This was gorgeous upon receiving. I have repotted into LECA and it’s given me a beautiful variegated new leaf since. I can’t wait to watch it grow even more!
