Alocasia amazonica Polly is a plant that captivates with its unique devil-shaped leaves. Alocasia, which grows deep in the jungle, can grow to be huge, but here we only see smaller plants. It is native to tropical countries, so a warm and humid climate is very important for it. Its strong and fleshy leaves are poison green with white veins and white edges.
Place the pot in a bright spot, but protect it from direct sunlight. If the air is too dry, humidify it. Place a tray of gravel underneath or fill it with clay granules to ensure adequate humidity.
With the arrival of autumn, the plant retreats and begins to take on its winter appearance. At this time, its leaves wither and fall off, but this is a natural process, so don't be alarmed. Let the process run its course, dry out the soil, and then set the plant aside to rest for the winter. With the arrival of spring, our favorite plant will come back to life.
