🌞 Light Requirements

  • Prefers bright, indirect light.
  • Avoid direct sunlight as it can scorch the leaves.
  • Can tolerate medium light but may grow more slowly.

💧 Watering

  • Keep the soil consistently moist but not soggy.
  • Water when the top inch of soil feels dry.
  • Use filtered or distilled water if possible, as Alocasias can be sensitive to tap water chemicals.

🌡️ Temperature & Humidity

  • Thrives in warm temperatures: 65–80°F (18–27°C).
  • Requires high humidity (60–80%).
  • Use a humidifier, pebble tray, or mist regularly.
  • Keep away from cold drafts and sudden temperature changes.

🌱 Soil & Potting

  • Use a well-draining, airy soil mix (a mix of potting soil, perlite, and orchid bark works well).
  • Ensure the pot has drainage holes to prevent root rot.
  • Also enjoys Leca or Pon

🌿 Fertilizing

  • Feed with a balanced, diluted liquid fertilizer every 4–6 weeks during the growing season (spring and summer).
  • Reduce feeding in fall and winter when growth slows.
