Frequently Asked Questions

How do I care for my Alocasia plant?

Alocasia Plants thrive in bright, indirect light and high humidity. They prefer their soil to stay consistently moist but never soggy. To prevent root rot, always use a plant pot with drainage. Wiping the large leaves with a damp cloth not only keeps them shiny but also helps the plant breathe better in indoor environments.

Why are my Alocasia leaves drooping?

Alocasias are expressive plants! Drooping can indicate underwatering or insufficient light. However, it is also common for an Alocasia to drop an older, outer leaf to make energy for a new one emerging from the centre. If your plant is in a warm, bright spot and has a pot liner to manage moisture, it should bounce back quickly.

Are Alocasia plants toxic to pets?

Yes, Alocasias are toxic to cats and dogs if ingested. They contain calcium oxalate crystals that can cause irritation. We recommend placing these plants on high plant stands or in our tall plant pots to keep them safely out of reach of curious pets.

Do you offer fast UK delivery for Alocasias?

Yes! Because Alocasia leaves are sensitive to temperature and handling, we use reinforced packaging to protect them during nationwide shipping. From our London studio, we ensure your plants and pots are dispatched quickly so they spend as little time in transit as possible.

Can I purchase a matching pot for my new plant?

Yes! We specialise in curated plants and pots. For every new arrival, we recommend a selection of matt, glazed, or metal or ceramic plant pots that perfectly fit the nursery pot size . You can also browse our Pots Fresh Arrivals to find the latest trends in planters to match your new greenery.
