Alocasia Low Rider
Alocasia Low Rider - 40-50 CM / Nursery is backordered and will ship as soon as it is back in stock.
ABOUT THE PLANT
Alocasia Low Rider needs a soil medium that can retain moisture but drain excess water to avoid the root rot. Most pre-mixed soils will suffice. Make sure that there is plenty of organic matter, like coco-coir, peat moss, or shredded leaves, and avoid soils that contain moisture retaining crystals.
-
Appearance: The Alocasia Low Rider is known for its striking, arrowhead-shaped leaves with pronounced veins. The leaves are typically glossy and can vary in color, often displaying shades of green with contrasting lighter or darker markings. The overall appearance is exotic and adds a touch of tropical elegance to indoor spaces.
-
Size: As the name suggests, the Alocasia Low Rider is relatively compact compared to some other Alocasia varieties. It typically grows to a height of about 1 to 2 feet (30 to 60 centimeters) and has a bushy, clumping growth habit.
-
Light: Like many Alocasia species, the Low Rider prefers bright, indirect light. Avoid direct sunlight, as it can scorch the leaves. It can tolerate lower light conditions, but growth may slow down, and it might not thrive as well.
-
Temperature: Alocasia Low Rider prefers warm and humid conditions. Keep the temperature between 65°F to 80°F (18°C to 27°C). It's sensitive to cold drafts and temperatures below 50°F (10°C), so protect it from chilly conditions.
-
Watering: Alocasia plants like consistently moist soil but not waterlogged conditions. Water when the top inch (2.5 centimeters) of soil feels dry. Ensure proper drainage in the pot to prevent root rot.
