🦓 Alocasia zebrina – Care Tips

Alocasia zebrina is famous for its eye-catching zebra-like stems and large, arrowhead-shaped leaves. Native to the Philippines, it adds a bold and exotic touch to any interior space and thrives with the right balance of light, humidity, and care.

☀️ Light

• Loves bright, indirect light

• Avoid direct sunlight – can burn the leaves

• Can tolerate dappled light but thrives in a bright room

💧 Watering

• Water when the top 2–3 cm of soil feels dry

• Do not let the soil stay soggy – well-draining soil is key

• Reduce watering in cooler months

🌡️ Temperature & Humidity

• Happy between 18–28°C (65–82°F)

• Needs moderate to high humidity (50%+)

• Avoid cold drafts and sudden temperature drops

🌱 Soil & Fertilizer

• Use a loose, well-draining mix (potting soil + perlite + bark)

• Feed monthly during the growing season (spring–summer) with a balanced fertilizer

• No need to fertilize in winter dormancy

✂️ Care Tips

• Wipe leaves gently to keep them glossy and dust-free

• Remove yellow or damaged leaves as needed

• Check regularly for pests like spider mites or aphids

🌿 Propagation

• Propagate via rhizome division during repotting

🐾 Pet Safety

• Toxic if ingested – keep out of reach of pets and children
