Care Instructions
- Light: Prefers bright, indirect light but tolerates medium light better than most Alocasias. Avoid direct sunlight which can scorch the delicate leaves.
- Water: Keep soil lightly moist but not soggy. Water when the top 2 inches of soil feel dry. More forgiving of occasional underwatering than other Alocasias.
- Humidity: Enjoys moderate humidity (40-60%) but adapts well to average household conditions. Mist occasionally for best results.
- Feeding: Fertilize every 3-4 weeks during spring and summer with diluted liquid fertilizer. Reduce feeding in fall and winter.
- Temperature: Maintain temperatures between 65°F and 80°F. Protect from cold drafts and temperatures below 60°F.
- Soil: Use well-draining potting mix. A standard houseplant mix works well.
