Alocasia Pink Chantrieri

The Alocasia Pink Chantrieri is a collector's jewel — a compact, jewel-toned aroid prized for its deep, velvety leaves traced with pale pink to silvery midribs and veining. Each leaf emerges with a subtle sheen that shifts under light, making it as sculptural as it is alive. Slow-growing and highly sought after, this is a statement plant for the serious collector.

Care Guide

• Light: Bright indirect light; no direct sun. A north or east-facing window is ideal.
• Water: Water when the top 1–2 inches of soil are dry. Never let it sit in water — Alocasias are prone to root rot.
• Humidity: 60–80% is ideal. Use a humidifier or pebble tray; misting is insufficient.
• Temperature: 65–85°F (18–29°C). Protect from cold drafts and temps below 60°F.
• Soil: Well-draining aroid mix (perlite, bark, coco coir). Avoid dense potting soil.
• Fertilizer: Balanced liquid fertilizer (e.g., 20-20-20) every 2–4 weeks during active growth (spring–summer). None in winter.
• Dormancy: May drop leaves in low light or cool temps — this is normal. Keep soil barely moist and wait.
• Toxicity: Toxic to pets and humans if ingested.
