Alocasia chantrieri has leaves that emerge an iridescent blue! This species is a hybrid of Alocasia metallica and Alocasia sanderiana. As an indoor plant, Alocasia chantrieri would make a great addition to any home as they adapt easily to most home environments.
This species produces pillowy foliage with undulating margins that demands attention.
Caring for your new Alocasia is simple as they require little attention. Allow the soil to dry out almost completely between watering. Provide your plant with bright indirect light. Make sure to keep your plant away from cold drafts.
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.
My Alocasia came in the mail packaged and protected perfectly.
Another beautiful plant from one of my favorite sellers! Always shipped well!
Thank you so much for your kind words and continued support! We’re so happy to be one of your favorites.
This was one of my first alocasias and I can’t wait to add more to my collection!
Love the color on this alocasia! The dark shimmer of the leaves sold me on snagging this before it sold out again, and I'm very glad I did! Arrived with 3 solid leaves and can't wait to see a new one.
Love my Alocasia Chantrieri, she arrived very health and looking beautiful.
I have a 2nd order arriving soon and can't wait, I know they all will be worth every $$ spent.
Thank you Canopy Plant for all your awesome plants!!
