Product description

The leaves of this undescribed Alocasia species are dark green in colour, but have a bluish sheen. The underside of the leaf has purplish colours and the petioles are coloured more dark red. Overall, this species is a colourful sight. The species originates from the rainforests of Borneo and is rare there. In cultivation, the plant is now more commonly offered, but it is still waiting for a scientific publication with the definitive name. For now, we stick with Alocasia sp. ‘Olanii’, named after the discoverer of the species. 

The plant can grow up to 1.5 metres tall and has leaves up to about 1 metre in size. Provide a well-drained soil with organic matter and a light location without direct sunlight. If humidity is low, the leaves can be regularly sprayed with water. 

Sowing description: The already germinated tuber can be transferred directly into an airy soil mixture. Keep constantly slightly moist and a temperature of 25-30grC is optimal for initial development.
