Please note that the decorative pot is not included.Care GuideLikes moist but well-drained soil so keep the compost moist with warm water. Do not allow the soil to dry out. Little and often is a good approach. Place by a bright window, but out of direct sunlight which will scorch the leaves. Alocasia prefers above average humidity, so stand on a pebble tray to improve humidity and mist frequently. Water with a general-purpose liquid houseplant feed once a month during the growing season. Give the plant a quarter turn every day to maximise its exposure to sunlight. A tropical plant, Alocasia needs to be kept warm (18-22C is ideal) and has a dormant period in winter when growth stops, and the leaves may fade and die back. During this period, the plants will require less water, so simply moisten the soil from time to time and rapid growth will recommence the following year. Note: Alocasia Macrorrhiza is harmful if eaten and is a skin and eye irritant to some people. Keep out of reach of children and pets.This product is offered for sale for home delivery exclusively via our website only.

Bring the tropical jungle into your home with Alocasia ‘Dragon Scale’! This fabulous foliage plant boasts large, arrow-shaped leaves boldly marked with scaley patterning
Alocasias are striking and sculptural houseplants and Alocasia ‘Red Secret’ is no exception
Few house plants are as dramatic as Alocasia x amazonica! The wavy edged leaves are dark green with purple undersides, and patterned with silvery-white veins that create an impressive contrast.
A striking and beautiful houseplant, Alocasia Amazonica is a robust evergreen perennial with dark green, narrowly arrow-shaped, wavy-edged leaves, growing up to 2 ft. long (60 cm). When grown in preferred conditions and given proper care, this hybrid Alocasia will grace your indoors with its lush growth and distinctly coloured leaves for years to come. Light and Water For the best performance and for the foliage to retain its deep green colouring, it is best to situate your Alocasia Amazonica in a location that receives bright indirect light. If you live in an area where the temperatures and light conditions are not intense can place it in a location that receives direct sunlight. If placed in a location lacking enough light the plant loses its colour, including the leaf veins and can eventually die. Even when placed in a location that receives a medium amount of light, the plant won’t be happy and won’t produce the best growth and leaf coloration as when placed in a brighter location. So, experiment on locations and keep an eye of its health and change locations where necessary. As with most tropical plants, maintain evenly moist but not soggy soil during the growing season, watering when the surface begins to dry. Reduce watering significantly in winter.
Looking for something a little different this Christmas? This Alocasia houseplant is all about its unusual and unique looking leaves. The gigantic heart-shaped leaves with scalloped edges are deep dark green in colour and are accented perfectly by the silvery-white veining. A tropical superstar which is capable of transforming a bland living space into a fresh and stylish area. Each Christmas gift comes beautifully presented in a 12cm ceramic pot with your own personalised greetings card and full care instructions.
