Alocasia Simpo Mint 4”

A rare gem in the world of collector aroids, the Alocasia Simpo Mint captivates with its striking variegation — deep green foliage brushed with creamy mint and silver splashes that shift with every new unfurl. No two leaves are alike, making each plant a living work of art.

Compact yet commanding, the Simpo Mint is prized among serious collectors for its graphic leaf patterning and relative rarity in cultivation. Whether displayed as a focal piece or nestled among a curated tropical arrangement, it brings an unmistakable editorial edge to any interior.

Care Guide

• Light: Bright, indirect light. Avoid direct sun, which can bleach the variegation. North or east-facing windows work beautifully; supplement with a grow light in lower-light spaces.
• Water: Water when the top 1–2 inches of soil are dry. Alocasias prefer consistent moisture without sitting in water — well-draining soil is essential.
• Humidity: Thrives at 60–80% humidity. A pebble tray, humidifier, or grouping with other tropicals will keep it happy.
• Temperature: Keep between 65–85°F (18–29°C). Protect from drafts, air conditioning vents, and temperatures below 60°F.
• Soil: A chunky, aerated mix — combine potting soil with perlite and orchid bark for ideal drainage and root health.
• Fertilizer: Feed with a balanced liquid fertilizer (e.g., 20-20-20) every 2–4 weeks during the growing season (spring–summer). Reduce or pause in fall and winter.
• Repotting: Repot every 1–2 years or when rootbound, sizing up only one pot size at a time.
• Toxicity: Toxic to pets and humans if ingested. Keep out of reach of children and animals.
