LIGHT
Alocasia houseplants do well with bright light, but no direct sun.
WATERING
Keep soil moist spring through fall when plant is actively growing. Water sparingly in winter, allowing soil to become almost dry between watering.
SOIL
Alocasia houseplants love a peat moss based mix, such as African violet potting mix.
We suggest Fertilome African Violet Potting Mix
FERTILIZER
Fertilize alocasia a couple of times a year to keep it healthy. Use any fertilizer formulated for use on houseplants.
We suggest Espoma Organic Indoor!
TEMPERATURE
Alocasia plants like average warmth between 65-75°.
HUMIDITY
Alocasias requires moist air, preferably 50% relative humidity or higher.
IS IT PET FRIENDLY?
Like most houseplants, alocasia plants are mildly toxic if eaten. They may cause some discomfort and vomiting when eaten. Keep away from animals and children.
