Description

Alocasia Regal Shields is the hybrid cross of Alocasia odora and Alocasia reginula aka Black Velvet . Getting it s cold tolerance and larger stature from odora, and it s unique coloration and pleating from reginula, Regal Shields is the perfect combination of both of these plants! 

~Do Not let Alocasia sit in excess water. Alocasia are prone to rot if left with “wet feet”. Once watered, make sure to drain any extra water.

~Do Not place in full sun. Though some larger varieties can be acclimated to full sun, our Alocasia have been grown under shaded, greenhouse conditions.

~Alocasia are rhizomatous, meaning as they grow they will produce offshoots on short stems at or below the soil line. If you see bulb-like balls [known as corms] in the pot, Do Not remove them as these will grow to become new Alocasia!
