Alocasia Scalprum

Overview:

Alocasia Scalprum is a rare and exotic variety known for its glossy, dark green, elongated leaves with a unique, leathery texture. The leaves are shaped like blades, giving the plant a sleek and dramatic look. Native to the Philippines, this Alocasia species is popular among plant collectors due to its distinct appearance and relatively compact size, making it perfect for indoor spaces.

Water Requirements:

Keep the soil consistently moist, but ensure it is well-draining to prevent root rot. Water when the top inch of soil feels dry, and avoid letting the plant sit in waterlogged soil. Alocasia Scalprum prefers higher humidity, so regular misting or using a humidifier is recommended.

Light Requirements:

Alocasia Scalprum thrives in bright, indirect light. It can tolerate lower light conditions, but too little light may slow growth and reduce leaf vibrancy. Avoid direct sunlight, as it can burn the leaves and cause them to lose their rich color.

This plant is a must-have for collectors looking for “rare Alocasia,” “exotic houseplants,” or “Alocasia Scalprum care.”
