These are black and white striped, just like a zebra. The separate stems in combination with its beautiful green leaves are characteristic of the Alocasia. The beautiful heart-shaped leaves are also reminiscent of an elephant's floppy ears. For that reason the plant is also called 'Elephant Ear'.

Care Instructions

Because of its origin in the tropical regions, the Alocasia Zebrina prefers a moist environment. It is therefore also important to keep the potting soil moist by regularly watering small shoots. Do not give cold tap water; the Alocasia is quite sensitive. Preferably place the plant in a light place, but not directly in the sun. It is also good to know that as soon as the Alocasia forms new leaves, an older leaf may turn yellow and droop. These are best cut just above the ground. Ultimately, the Zebrina can grow leaves with a size of up to 150 cm! Be careful, because the Alocasia Zebrina is poisonous to people and pets.
