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.

The Alocasia Frydek variegated has been on my wishlist for awhile. After not finding it locally, I found here and ordered. It came packed well and the plant size and leaves were perfect. I haven't lost any leaves in almost 3 weeks and already have a new one!
So exciting to finally cross that wishlist plant off! ✨ Thrilled your Frydek is already settling in and growing strong.
It’s so beautiful! Healthy already got two new leaves since arrival 2 weeks ago.
Variegation in this plant is gorgeous. Received it in a timely manner. It had four leaves but one was dead. I replanted it and it is flourishing in its spot, a new leaf has already sprung up and almost ready to open.
So happy to hear it’s already bouncing back with new growth! ✨ That gorgeous variegation makes it extra special.
When I got this plant one leaf was yellow. Then I lost another leaf and they was droopy. The looks like she acclimated and I got a new leaf. So far she doing good.
Thanks so much for sharing your experience—we’re glad to hear she’s settling in and putting out a new leaf! Sometimes they just need a little time (and patience) to shine!
