    Plant Care – Alocasia Macrorrhiza Variegata

    Light: Place your Alocasia Macrorrhiza Variegata under bright and indirect sunlight, and do avoid direct sunlight because it will cause its leaves to scorch and dry up.

    Water: Water your Alocasia thoroughly and make sure that the soil is evenly moist. Water your plant whenever the top inch of the soil is dry to the touch, and make sure to water till some water flows through the pot’s drainage holes. Just like many other plants, Alocasias do not do well with wet feet. Do not overwater your plant, and watch out for signs of leaves turning yellow and limp.

    Soil: The Alocasia thrives in well-aerated soil that drains water quickly, and therefore should not be placed in soils that are too compacted and heavy, which cause prolonged periods of water retention. And this can lead to root problems, for instance, root rot.

    Fertiliser: Feed your plant with a water-soluble Fertiliser with an NPK ratio of 20-20-20 once a month.

    Humidity Requirement: Medium To High

    Fun Facts about the Alocasia genus: Did you know? Widely known as the Elephant Ears plant, the Alocasia is popular for having the ability to produce large and ornamental foliage. Typically found in the tropical rainforests of South-East Asia, the Alocasia belongs to the Arum genus.

    Alocasia Macrorrhiza? What exactly is it?

    Alocasia Macrorrhiza is a very popular and appreciated plant in the garden. It is used as a pot plant, in flower beds and containers or as an outdoor palm tree. The leaves are large and long, thick, and the veins run along with them under the skin. Alocasia macrorrhiza can be used both as a single specimen or planted in groups of two or more.

    There is also the Alocasia Macrorrhiza variegata which exhibits eye candy variegated leaves, with each and every leaf having its own unique patterns of variegation.

    You have probably seen the Alocasia Macrorrhiza but you haven’t realised! 

    You have most likely come across an Alocasia Macrorrhiza but you might not have noticed! They can be seen anywhere from your local park, the outskirts of a forest to even your neighbour’s front garden! The Alocasia Macrorrhiza is much closer to you than you think!

    Why is the Alocasia Macrorrhiza so commonly seen? 

    Thats because Alocasia Macrorrhiza is such an easy-to-care-for plant! In the wild, they thrive even without the need for human intervention!

    Trust us when we say this, the Alocasia Macrorrhiza is so easy to care for that the only way to prove it is that you buy your own pot and try them out for yourselves. If you follow our Alocasia Macrorrhiza care tips, your very own plant will thrive under your care till the very day it overgrows.

    How do I care for my Alocasia Macrorrhiza plant? 

    Light: Place your Alocasia Macrorrhiza plant under bright and indirect sunlight. Avoid direct sunlight because it will cause its leaves to scorch and dry up, especially for variegated leaves.

    Water: Water your Alocasia thoroughly and ensure that the soil is evenly moist. Water your plant whenever the top inch of the soil is dry to the touch, and make sure to water till some water flows through the pot’s drainage holes. Like many other plants, Alocasias do not do well with wet feet. Do not overwater your plant, and watch out for signs of leaves turning yellow and limp.

    Soil: The Alocasia thrives in well-aerated soil that drains water quickly and, therefore, should not be placed in soils that are too compacted and heavy, which causes prolonged periods of water retention. And this can lead to root problems, for instance, root rot.

    Fertiliser: Fertilise your plant with a general slow-release fertiliser. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions when fertilising your plant.

    Humidity Requirement: Medium To High

    Fun Facts about the Alocasia genus: Did you know? Widely known as the Elephant Ears plant, the Alocasia is popular for having the ability to produce large and ornamental foliage. Typically found in the tropical rainforests of South-East Asia, the Alocasia belongs to the Arum genus.

    Additional Care: Depending on when you place your Alocasia Macrorrhiza, they may be prone to pests such as spider mites. Spider mites are harmful to your plants and cannot be seen by the naked eye. We recommend spraying insecticides weekly as a preventive measure!

    FAQs about Alocasia Macrorrhiza:

    1. Can I water my Alocasia Macrorrhiza plants every day?

    Watering schedules for the Alocasia Macrorrhiza are dependent on its environment and the potting mix it is potted in. If your Alocasia is placed outdoors where it receives shade, the heat from the outdoor environment will likely dry up your Alocasia Macrorrhiza’s soil quicker when compared to placing your plant indoors. A good rule of thumb that we all can follow would be to touch the soil to determine whether it is time to water. If the top 2 inches of the soil feel dry to touch, it is time to give your plant some water.

    2. Can I pot my Alocasia Macrorrhiza plants in full soil?

    We always recommend potting your Alocasia Macrorrhiza in a gritty soil mix that can provide good water drainage. We often see overwatering as a common problem for indoor plants.

    Overwatering plants can lead to water lodged in the potting mix, resulting in root rot which will eventually lead to the demise of your plant. We recommend using a well-draining potting mix potted in a pot with more drainage holes to prevent overwatering.

    3. What are the contents of a gritty soil mix?

    The components of a simple gritty soil mix that many of us at The Green Corner use comprises 2 parts Peat moss/ soil, 1 part pumice and 1 part perlite. If you would like a grittier soil mix, add more pumice and perlite till you are satisfied. We have used this for our Alocasia and they are growing well with no signs of overwatering. When placed indoors with a gritty soil mix, you will usually only need to water your plants once a week. However, it will still be recommended to touch the soil to determine whether your plants need to be watered.

    4. Where can I purchase my very own Alocasia Macrorrhiza plants?
