Alocasia ‘Platinum’ | Approx. 15 cm height | 12 cm pot | Fast EU shipping | Grown with love in the EU | Pet-toxic
Summary: Alocasia ‘Platinum’ is a rare and breathtaking variety, prized for its glistening silver leaves with an almost metallic sheen, adding modern sophistication to your plant collection.
Place in bright, indirect light to maintain its metallic sheen. Avoid direct sunlight, which can scorch leaves. Ideal near east- or west-facing windows or in greenhouse cabinets.
Allow the top 2–3 cm of soil to dry before watering. Prefers moderate to high humidity (60–80%) to keep foliage healthy; mist regularly or use a humidifier. Protect from cold drafts.
Plant in a well-draining aroid mix containing orchid bark, perlite, and coco coir. Repot every 1–2 years in spring when roots fill the pot to support continued growth.
Toxic to pets and humans if ingested due to calcium oxalate crystals. Keep away from cats, dogs, and small children.
Slow to moderate grower. Propagate by separating offsets from the tuber during spring repotting once mature enough to develop pups.
Reduce watering slightly in winter while maintaining humidity. Wipe leaves gently to keep their metallic sheen free from dust.
Yellowing or drooping leaves often indicate overwatering or low humidity. Watch for spider mites in dry air; treat promptly with neem oil if needed.
Alocasia ‘Platinum’ is derived from the beloved Alocasia ‘Bisma’ and is treasured for its elegant, sculptural silver foliage with a rare metallic glow—perfect for collectors seeking unique tropical beauty.

Very interesting white leaves. Came with some yellowish ones probably from travelling. I can understand that plants with rare colours on their leaves may be more complicated to remain as received.
Beautiful colours.. loved it!
My whole order was better than expected and the shipment to Finland was fast! Will be supporting you from now on!
.. a must have beauty! Leaves change colour while growing(second picture).
