Alocasia 'Teletubbies'

Alocasia ‘Teletubbies’ is a compact and playful tropical houseplant with rounded, softly textured leaves in rich green tones. The gently cupped foliage and neat, clumping habit give it a distinctive, almost whimsical appearance, while still maintaining the bold, architectural feel typical of Alocasia.

Perfect for bright indoor spaces with indirect light, it works beautifully on shelves, desks or plant stands where its compact form can be appreciated up close. Its unusual leaf shape and tidy growth make it an appealing choice for collectors and those looking for something a little different.

  • Other names: Elephant Ear
  • Useful to know: Toxic if ingested - not safe for pets and children
  • Eventual height: 30-50cm
  • Origins: Tropical Asia (cultivated selection)

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
