4" Alocasia 'Low Rider'

$30.00

We have run out of stock for this item.

Low Rider, sittin low in his pot, cruising and listening to some real loud R&B, is a dwarf Alocasia reaching around 2' to 3' tall and wide, max. Thick and meaty stems hold really big, bumpy, waffly arrowhead leaves in a nice saturated emerald green. Light green, prominent veins look like they are a size too small, pulling the leaf a bit too tight into those waffly bumps. Leaves are splayed out flat, circling the stem and each pointing out from the center, always balanced, always self-assured. Immigrant parents coming originally from Asian tropical riverbeds and forest floors, this guy was born in a greenhouse, a Portora hybrid. Easygoing and laidback, put him in a nice low pot or basket on the floor and play him some Marvin Gaye now and then.

  • Toxic: All parts of plant are toxic. Keep away from children and pets.

Quick Care Guide:

  • Water - Med/High (4):  Prefers more water than most, but soil can dry out periodically. Use a spray bottle to mist and increase humidity levels without soaking the soil and roots.
  • Light - Medium (3):  Plant prefers natural, diffused light. Can be placed in a spacious living room. Indirect light preferred. No direct sunlight on leaves.
  • Difficulty - Medium (3):  Not too difficult to keep happy, but does require some attention.
