This lovely dwarf Alocasia is known for its seemingly black, velvety leaves accented with beautiful silver-white veins. If you are running low on plant space in your life (we don't know anything about that!), this plant is a perfect match, as it will remain compact throughout its life.
Light: These plants thrive in bright indirect light, but avoid direct sun, as the intense rays can burn their tender leaves. Be sure to rotate your plant regularly to ensure it grows evenly, as these are infamous for distorting their shape by reaching towards the light.
Water: These plants enjoy evenly moist soil, but do not like to be soggy. Water once the soil is dry about one to two inches down in its container.
Humidity: Alocasia favor moderate to high humidity. We suggest running a humidifer if the air in your space is dry.
If ingested, poisonous to people and pets.
