Alocasia Polly

6” Alocasia Polly shown

Alocasia Polly has dramatic foliage with wavy edges and contrasting veining on the leaves.

• LIGHT: Medium indirect light. Can tolerate low light, but do not place in dark room or corner.

• WATER: Likes a rich soil and to stay evenly moist, but not wet or soggy. Use a pebble tray under the pot to raise humidity or keep in the kitchen or bathroom. If the plant is too dry the leaf tips will brown, to wet and it can get root rot.

• FERTILIZER: Use a well balanced fertilizer during the spring and summer. No fertilizer is necessary during the winter months when plant growth naturally slows. Only apply fertilizer to damp soil–never dry, as it will burn the roots.
