This unique indoor plant is easy to care for and will be sure to be a conversation starter of any room that it is in.
Alocasia Nobilis care:
Alocasia Nobilis prefers a well draining soil that is rich in organic matter. Allow your Alocasia to dry out almost completely between watering, taking care to not allow it to sit in excess water. Provide it with medium to bright indirect light for optimal growth.

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.
