Alocasia 'Pink Polly Variegata'
Alocasia 'Pink Polly' is a striking compact Alocasia prized for its deeply cut, dark green leaves decorated with vibrant pink variegation. Each new leaf develops its own individual pattern of colour, giving every plant a distinctive appearance and making it an eye-catching choice for collectors.
More compact than many larger Alocasia varieties, 'Polly Pink' is well suited to shelves, tabletops and smaller indoor displays. Position in bright, indirect light to help maintain its colourful variegation, while providing warmth, humidity and protection from cold draughts.
- Other names: Pink Variegated Alocasia Polly, Variegated African Mask Plant
- Useful to know: Toxic if ingested - not safe for pets
- Feature: Unique pink variegation develops differently on every leaf
- Eventual height: Can grow up to approximately 50cm
- Origins: Cultivated Alocasia variety with tropical Asian ancestry
Alocasia Care Sheet
Light: Needs bright but indirect light, as strong full sun will scorch the foliage. The leaves turn toward the light so rotate the plant to prevent it leaning
Water: Requires regular watering to keep the soil moist, but not saturated. As a rainforest plant it is used to growing in damp conditions. Browning leaf edges are a sign of underwatering, and water droplets on the leaf tips indicate the plant sweating out excess moisture, called guttation. Reduce watering if this occurs
Soil/Nutrition: Well-draining houseplant compost mix, feed monthly in spring and summer
Humidity: Enjoys regular misting, or a pebble tray to replicate the humid rainforest environment
Pruning and propagation: Dust the leaves to help keep the plant in top condition. Trim off faded leaves to keep neat. Can be propagated by rhizome division of the corms in spring and summer
Experience Level: Moderate
