      How to Care For Alocasia

      Light Requirements

      Alocasia plants thrive in bright, indirect light. Placing them near a window with filtered sunlight ensures they receive the optimal amount of brightness without the risk of leaf burn.

      Watering Needs

      Consistent watering is key. Allow the top layer of soil to dry out slightly between waterings, and always ensure your pot has adequate drainage to prevent waterlogging and root rot.

      Temperature and Humidity

      For optimal growth, Alocasia plants prefer warm conditions between 18°C and 25°C. High humidity is also beneficial, so consider placing them in a bathroom or kitchen, and occasional misting or using a humidifier, especially during drier months.

      Soil and Potting Mix

      A well-draining, nutrient-rich potting mix is essential for Alocasia health. Our Premium Alocasia Potting Mix is specially formulated to meet the needs of these tropical plants, offering superior moisture retention and aeration that promote robust growth.

      Are Alocasia safe for Pets?

      Unfortunately Alocasia are not classed as non-toxic for pets, so it is best to keep away your cats and dogs. Their leaves contain calcium oxalate crystals which can be highly irritating when consumed.
