Product description

Alocasia gigantea 'Aurea Variegata' is a rare, tropical, elephant-ear plant prized for its massive, rippled leaves featuring striking yellow-green variegation. It is a fast-growing, dramatic houseplant (sometimes mistaken for A. gageana aurea) that requires bright, indirect light and high humidity. Key Care & Characteristics

Light: Bright, indirect light is necessary for the variegation; direct sun will scorch the leaves.

Water: Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged, letting the top inch dry out between waterings to prevent root rot.

Humidity & Temp: Thrives in 60-80% humidity and temperatures between 65–85°F (18–29°C).

Size: Can grow quite large, with leaves reaching up to 3-4 feet long. While the species can reach over 15 feet in nature, it is often kept smaller indoors.

Soil: Use a well-draining aroid mix, often incorporating perlite or coconut coir.

Toxicity: Toxic to pets and children if ingested.
