Codiaeum/Croton Petra 10"

Introduce vibrant foliage into any indoor space with the Alocasia. Boasting stunning foliage adorned with contrasting greens, yellows, oranges, and reds, add a burst of color to your home décor.

Lighting: This plant thrives in direct sunlight, making it ideal for spaces that receive sun for 8 or more hours each day. Position it in a bright spot where it can soak up plenty of sunlight to maintain its vibrant foliage.

Watering: During the winter months, water your Alocasia every 10 days, ensuring the soil remains evenly moist. As the plant enters its spring and summer growing seasons, increase watering frequency to once a week to support its growth and hydration needs.

Soil: Provide your Alocasia with a well-draining soil mix that retains moisture while allowing excess water to flow away. This ensures the soil stays moist without becoming waterlogged, providing the perfect growing environment for your plant.

Temperature & Humidity: Maintain a minimum humidity level of 50% to keep your Alocasia happy and thriving. Keep the temperature between 15°C to 21°C, avoiding drafts and colder windowpanes, which can stress the plant. Mimicking its native tropical environment ensures optimal growth and health.

Fertilization: Nourish your Alocasia with balanced nutrition by using a liquid fertilizer with equal parts nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium. This provides the essential nutrients your plant needs to maintain its colorful foliage and overall health.
