About this plant
Alocasia zebrina is recognised first by its stems, striped like a zebra's coat, holding deep green arrowhead leaves high. Each leaf is a drawing; the whole plant, a sculpture.
More demanding than average, it likes bright light without direct sun, sustained ambient humidity and a free-draining mix that never stays soggy. It may pause in winter and drop a leaf or two before restarting in spring.
A plant for the attentive enthusiast, in a bright living room or a light-filled bathroom.
