Care Guide
Check soil for dryness once a week. Thrives in an environment with high humidity. Water less in winter when plant is dormant.
Prefers bright, indirect light but can tolerate low light as well. Avoid direct sunlight.
Prune yellow or damaged stems down to soil level. Leaves will fade or die when plant goes dormant but plant is still alive. To propagate, large plants can be divided in the spring.
Needs a little extra care. Just avoid direct sunlight and maintain high humidity.
A peaty All-Purpose potting soil with good drainage works best. Be sure the bulbous rhizomes at the base of plant are potted above the soil.
Sorry! All parts of the plant are considered toxic if consumed.
Alocasias remove toxins that can build up in indoor spaces. A general rule of thumb is 1 medium houseplant per 100 square feet of space effectively cleans the air we breathe.
Feed with a mild liquid, indoor plant fertilizer about once a month during the growing season. Do not fertilize in winter.
Prefers warm conditions 70-85°F. Keep away from drafty windows and air conditioners.
