Question about item

Her nickname Polly, unconventional for a plant, is similarly extraordinary as her eye-catching and charming appearance, because the arrow-shaped leaves of this rare Alocasia show a strikingly wavy border as they mature, which makes them an extravagant eye-catcher along with their contrasting prominent leaf veins.

• Substrate: peat-free potting soil, Ben's Syngonium & Alocasia Soil
• Temperature: optimal at 24° C (day), 18° C (night)
• Watering: keep moist and water as soon as the top layer of substrate starts to dry, but avoid waterlogging
