This rare, relatively new Alocasia will be a real showpiece in your home.
- Origins : Tropical rainforests of Southeast Asia
- Eventual height : Can grow up to 40cm
- Useful to know : Not safe for pets, toxic if ingested. Alocasia can go dormant over winter and lose leaves
How to care:
- Light: Needs bright but indirect light, as strong full sun will scorch the foliage. The leaves turn toward the light so rotate the plant to prevent it leaning
- Water: Requires regular watering to keep the soil moist, but not saturated. As a rainforest plant it is used to growing in damp conditions. Browning leaf edges are a sign of underwatering, and water droplets on the leaf tips indicate the plant sweating out excess moisture, called guttation. Reduce watering if this occurs
- Soil/Nutrition: Well-draining houseplant compost mix, feed monthly in spring and summer
- Humidity: Enjoys regular misting, or a pebble tray to replicate the humid rainforest environment
- Pruning and propagation: Dust the leaves to help keep the plant in top condition. Trim off faded leaves to keep neat. Can be propagated by rhizome division of the corms in spring and summer.
