Alocasia Hilo Beauty 6" Pot
Overview:
The Alocasia Hilo Beauty is an eye-catching tropical plant prized for its large, heart-shaped leaves with striking white and green mottled variegation. The marbled pattern of its foliage gives it a unique, almost camouflage-like appearance, making it a stunning statement piece for any indoor plant collection. With its upright growth habit and bold leaves, the Alocasia Hilo Beauty brings a touch of the tropics into your home, creating a lush, exotic atmosphere. This rare variety of Alocasia is perfect for plant enthusiasts looking for a plant that is both distinctive and relatively easy to care for.
Light/Water Requirements:
- Light: Thrives in bright, indirect light but can tolerate lower light conditions. Avoid direct sunlight, as it can scorch the delicate variegation.
- Water: Water when the top inch of soil feels dry. The Alocasia Hilo Beauty prefers consistently moist, well-draining soil but is sensitive to overwatering. Ensure proper drainage to avoid root rot.
