Tuberculous plant, devoid of trunk, leaves emerge directly from the ground, forming a clump of 10 feet high in its natural environment, South East Asia. On our islands, height can reach 15 feet. Alocasia is called Ear elephant as weel; the leaves are shaped, dark green. The limb is turgid filled with water. In the dry season, and if the tubers are not watered enough, the leaves dry out, they will be reborn in the rainy season, however, it is necessary to keep a regular watering. The bloom consists of a pale green spathe surrounding a white spadix, fruiting gives red ball an inch in diameter. To plant in a shaded area with a shaded half drained soil to wet, accept a few rays of sun if the soil remains cool. Holds very well indoors and on terraces and balconies. Attention to the sap that is irritating.
