4" Variegated Alocasia 'Frydek'
Variegated Alocasia 'Frydek' is a highly sought-after cultivar with arrow-shaped, velvety green leaves splashed with irregular patches of creamy white. As the plant matures, its foliage becomes more dramatic and defined. This species is a self-heading grower that stays relatively compact, typically reaching 2–3 feet tall indoors. Native to Southeast Asia, grown in our FL greenhouse.
- Light: Bright, indirect light is best; direct sunlight can scorch variegated leaves
- Water: Keep soil evenly moist but not soggy; allow the top inch to dry slightly between waterings
- Pet-Friendly: No, toxic to pets
- Humidity: Requires high humidity (60%+); use a humidifier or mist regularly
- Care Level: Moderate to advanced; benefits from stable humidity and warm temps
Note: Images are a general representation of size and color. Variegation will vary.
Heads up: Alocasias are all about the long game! It's totally normal for a few leaves to yellow or drop after shipping—this kind of leaf loss is expected and isn't covered under our plant guarantee. With a little time and TLC, your Alocasia will adjust and bounce back beautifully.
