Alocasia Amazonica

Alocasia hold their leaves upright on tall stems, which is what separates them from the drooping Colocasia they are often sold beside. Amazonica is a garden hybrid rather than a wild species, producing dramatic arrow-shaped leaves in deep near-black green with vivid white veining. Bright indirect light, never hot direct sun. Keep the mix consistently moist but never waterlogged. Warmth and humidity suit them. All parts are toxic to pets and humans if ingested.
