Alocasia 'Amazonica Dwarf' (WA Prohibited)
check_circle In Stock
WA Restricted - Cannot be shipped to Western Australia.
Alocasia 'Amazonica Dwarf' is a smaller growing form with dark green, shield-shaped leaves highlighted by strong white veins. Its compact growth makes it well suited for pots and indoor settings while still showing the bold contrast typical of this group of plants. The parentage comes from hybrid origins, not a naturally occurring species, with the contributing species native to Southeast Asia where they grow in warm and humid conditions beneath canopy cover.
Care Tips
- Light: Bright, indirect light is best; avoid direct sun which can scorch the foliage.
- Water: Keep the soil evenly moist, letting only the surface dry slightly before watering again.
- Media: Use a free-draining mix rich in organic matter with added aeration such as perlite or bark.
- Fertiliser: Feed with a balanced liquid fertiliser every few weeks during the warmer growing season.
- Temperature: Thrives between 18-27°C; avoid cold drafts or sudden drops in temperature.
- Repotting: Repot every 1-2 years or when roots fill the pot, refreshing the mix each time.
Additional Notes
- Known to be toxic
