Elevate your indoor jungle with Alocasia Odora 'Batik', a rare variegated gem featuring large, heart-shaped leaves splashed in creamy white, green, and subtle gray patterns. This tropical stunner thrives in bright, indirect light, high humidity, and consistently moist, well-draining soil. Perfect for collectors, it adds exotic drama to shelves or as a statement floor plant. Keep temperatures above 65°F and mist regularly for lush growth.
Under optimal indoor conditions, this plant can reach 3-5 feet (90-150 cm) tall and 2-3 feet (60-90 cm) wide, with individual leaves spanning up to 18-24 inches (45-60 cm) long.
Variegation may reduce vigor slightly compared to solid green Alocasia odora, but expect impressive stature over 2-3 years. Regular pruning keeps it compact if space is limited.
The plants in our garden center are already well over 2 feet!
Caution: This is one to keep away from pets, toxic if ingested.
