Alocasia portodora is all about glossy green, lush tropical foliage. The upward pointing scalloped leaves on thick green stems give it the alternative name of upright elephant ear plant.
A statement houseplant from the jungles of South East Asia that will feel right at home in the humid environment of kitchens and bathrooms.
Horty Hints
Here comes the sun! Place your Alocasia in a well-lit spot as it needs plenty of bright, indirect light.
Ditch the drought! Make sure to keep your Alocasia’s soil moist (not wet) at all times to keep it happy and healthy.
Time to get steamy! If your Alocasia is looking a little wilted, pop it in the bathroom to soak up those raised humidity levels.
