Alocasia Overview

Alocasias are incredible stunners, featuring some of the most striking, head-turning foliage in the world of plants. If it could be a meme, it would be the one of the man holding hands with his girlfriend and turning around checking out another woman. Does that meme work if we describe it? No matter. Alocasias are native to subtropical Asia and eastern Australia, and there are around 80 species of Alocasias that range significantly in visual appeal. Alocasias’ have a bit of a reputation as a collector’s item – if you’re looking for a statement plant then this is the one for you. The exclamation mark of houseplants in terms of beauty, they’re also loud in the sense that some Alocasia varietals can grow up to 8 to 10 feet tall (and they can grow quickly if its conditions are met!)

Came home happy!

I saw this plant in an Instagram post while I was browsing and chive was the only place I saw that sold it in Toronto! I was so happy when I got it but was a little thrown off when I got it's information card to find out that it's difficult to take care of. But it's been more than a couple of weeks and it's doing well, so I must be doing something right! :P
