Alocasia Frydek is a stunning variegated elephant ear variety. This is the variegated form of the more common Alocasia micholitziana. The leaves are green with white contrasting veins and random spots of variegation throughout.
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.
Absolutely Beautiful! My babies arrived healthy, happy and oh, sooo, beautiful. Well worth the purchase price! I LOVE Canopy Plant Co.
She is a true beauty! This plant arrived in great condition and was packaged very well. It arrived quickly and even has since pushed out another leaf!
I’d been eyeing this cutie for a while now!! She’s arrived in perfect condition!!
Very variegated. Came packed well. Fast shipping. Plant in excellent condition when arrived
I am in awe of how beautiful this plant is. It looks very well cared for and had a lot of variegation. I next day air due to extreme temperatures where I live and they packaged all the plants carefully with a heat pack and Styrofoam to ensure the plants stay warm and safe during travel. I had one droopy leaf due to travel stress but it's happily adjusting in my warm bathroom with a humidifier and supplemental light. I'm slightly concerned about how much white it has and whether it can photosynthesis with the little green it has but hoping the extra light on a lower setting helps.
Hey Christina,

We take great care in packaging our plants for shipping, especially during extreme temperatures. It's normal for plants to experience some stress during travel, but we're happy to hear that your plant is adjusting well.
