Alocasia Melo Albo 3”

The Alocasia Melo Albo is a collector's gem — prized for its thick, deeply textured leaves with a matte, almost suede-like surface and striking white variegation that fractures across each blade like veining in rare stone. No two leaves are alike, making every plant a singular expression of nature's variance.

Care Guide

• Light: Bright, indirect light. Avoid harsh direct sun, which scorches the variegated tissue.
• Water: Allow the top 1–2" of soil to dry between waterings. Variegated tissue is more sensitive to overwatering than its all-green counterpart.
• Humidity: Thrives at 60–80%. A humidifier or pebble tray is strongly recommended.
• Temperature: 65–85°F (18–29°C). Protect from drafts and temperatures below 55°F.
• Soil: A chunky, well-draining aroid mix (perlite, orchid bark, coco coir).
• Fertilizer: Balanced liquid fertilizer at half-strength, monthly during the growing season (spring–summer).
• Toxicity: Toxic to pets and humans if ingested.
