Yucatan Princess - Alocasia, 6" Pot
Light Requirements
Prefers bright, indirect light. Too much direct sunlight can scorch the leaves, while low light may result in slower growth and smaller foliage. Consistent, filtered light helps maintain strong color and healthy leaf development.
Water Requirements
Keep soil evenly moist but not soggy. Water when the top 1–2 inches of soil feel dry, and allow excess water to drain completely. Alocasia prefers higher humidity and does not tolerate prolonged dryness.
Toxicity
Toxic to pets and humans if ingested. Keep out of reach of children and animals.
