Alocasia Scalprum Medium
The sword-leaf beauty β Alocasia Scalprum Medium
Alocasia scalprum | Fast EU shipping | Grown with love in the EU
Summary: This rare Alocasia features narrow, lance-shaped dark green leaves with a metallic sheen, bringing unique texture and elegant verticality to any plant collection.
β¨ Why You'll Love the Alocasia Scalprum
- Distinctive narrow sword-like leaves with metallic dark green tones
- Medium size (P14 pot | H30cm) perfect for shelf backdrops or statement corners
- Compact upright growth ideal for modern urban jungles
- Highly sought after by rare aroid collectors
π Light & Placement
Thrives in bright, indirect light. Can tolerate lower light but grows best near east- or north-facing windows without direct sun exposure.
π§ Water & Humidity
Keep soil lightly moist but not soggy. Loves high humidity (60-80%) β mist regularly or use a humidifier for optimal leaf health.
πͺ΄ Soil & Potting
Use a chunky, well-draining aroid mix with coco coir, perlite, and bark. Repot every 1-2 years to refresh nutrients and allow root expansion.
πΎ Toxicity & Safety
Toxic if ingested. Keep away from pets and children.
π± Growth & Propagation
Produces offsets (βpupsβ) around the base which can be divided carefully during repotting to propagate new plants.
π Seasonal & Special Care
Reduce watering slightly during winter dormancy. Wipe leaves occasionally to remove dust and maintain their metallic sheen.
π Common Issues
Susceptible to spider mites in dry environments and root rot if overwatered. Monitor for yellowing leaves as a sign of excess moisture.
𧬠Botanical Background
Native to the Philippines, Alocasia scalprum is admired for its unique sword-shaped foliage and compact size, making it a rare gem for indoor collectors worldwide.

Super good packaging and the plant looked great! after just a few days after arrival a new leaf appeared, so I am super happy and canΒ΄t wait to have the little babies grow!
The Alocasia itself is beautiful and healthy, with a lovely new leaf already developing. However, the packaging method used for shipping was very disappointing. The pots were stacked together in a way that put strong pressure on the stems during transport for several days, which caused permanent bending on some petioles and damage to one leaf.
At first, my concerns were underestimated, but after additional photos and explanations, Plant Circle handled the situation professionally and offered a fair partial refund, which I appreciated.
So overall, the plant is beautiful, but the packaging method for large Alocasias clearly needs improvement.
The leaves were wrinkled from shipping.
The plant arrived with a torn leaf due to shipping.
Dropped 2 small leaves while in transit, but plant looks healthy
