Alocasia is a plant very sensitive to transport (especially temperature changes). Therefore, it is possible to receive these plants with defects on the leaves, but these do not affect the viability of the plant. Under optimal care conditions, the new leaves will develop normally. Its leaves are very dark green, with shades of indigo blue, and have prominent light gray veins.

Note: The plant is sold with 1-2 leaves.
