About the Giant Taro - XL

A native of the Phillipines, the Alocasia Macrorrhizos is famous for its stunning large leaves that resemble an elephant's ear in both shape and size. The leaves emerge on rigid stalks and point upright towards the sky unlike other alocasias that droop. If kept happy, the Giant Taro will reward you with flowers that resemble a calla lily. Give your alocasia a key spot in your home that receives a few hours of morning sun and it will reward you with peace and happiness.

All the plant gossip, through the grapevine. Pun intended

Plants growing in containers need more fertilizing than those in the ground. The more you water, the more quickly you flush the nutrients out of the soil.

Plant Essentials

Fertilizer/ feed for the plant:Feed your Alocasia plant every 2-4 weeks with slow release fertiliser.
Repotting : Repot Alocasia once a year in larger pots and fresh soil.
Propogation : Propagate the Alocasia plant via rhizomes that are found underground. The rhizome section can be potted separately to grow a new plant.

Common Problems

1. Why are the leaves of my Alocasia plant drooping?
Alocasia plant leaves drooping is a sign of less sunlight or under-watering. It could also mean that the plant requires feeding..
2.Why are the leaves of my Alocasia plant curling?
Leaf curling in Alocasia plants could be a sign of over-watering. Ensure that the drainage hole of the pot is not blocked, let the excess water drain.
3. Why are the leaves of my Alocasia plant turning brown?
Dry soil or lack of humidity causes Alocasia leaves to turn brown and eventually fall off. Leaf browning is also a sign of scorching due to excessive sunlight..

Style and Decor

Light Requirements :Alocasia plants require very bright indirect sunlight.
Locations :Veranda, well-lit corridors and corners near windows are perfect for Alocasia plants since they receive indirect bright sunlight there.
Styling/decor tip :Use the Giant Taro as the feature plant in any space. Place it in a statement planter in a well-lit corner and that alone is enough. To create a more tripocal look, use the alocasia as the backdrop plant and place smaller tropical plants around it for a lush jungle feel. The Giant Taro looks stunning in outdoor gardens in the middle of flower beds and makes for key statement pieces on patios
