🌞 Light & Placement
Place your Alocasia ‘Reversa’ in bright, indirect light. It flourishes near an east- or north-facing window. Avoid direct sunlight, which can scorch its delicate foliage. Suitable for humid rooms or bright living spaces.
💧 Water & Humidity
Keep the substrate evenly moist — not wet. Water when the top 2–3 cm feel dry. This Alocasia loves high humidity (60–80%), so occasional misting or a pebble tray is beneficial, especially during dry European winters.
🪴 Soil & Potting
Use a well-draining aroid mix with perlite and coconut coir for healthy roots. As this is a P3 plug plant, transplant it into a small nursery pot immediately upon arrival. Check out our premium Alocasia soil blend for the perfect substrate.
🐾 Toxicity & Safety
Like all Alocasias, ‘Reversa’ is toxic if ingested by pets or humans. Keep away from cats, dogs, and small children.
🌱 Growth & Propagation
Moderate grower with compact stature (up to 30 cm tall). Propagate by separating offsets or corms when repotting in spring or early summer. Maintain warmth and humidity for best results.
📆 Seasonal & Special Care
During winter dormancy, reduce watering and keep temperatures above 18 °C. Avoid cold drafts. In spring and summer, feed every 4 weeks with a diluted liquid fertilizer to support lush new growth.
🐛 Common Issues
- Yellow leaves → overwatering or poor drainage
- Drooping foliage → too cold or underwatered
- Check for spider mites or aphids under leaves in dry air
🧬 Botanical Background
