Alocasia Sumo Tropical Live Plant Bulb Baby Plant With Roots green and purple

This easy grower reaches 5-6' the first year and 8-10' tall by the second year. The dark, upward-pointing, green leaves are huge – up to 3-4' long when fully mature – and they reach 2.5' across. The back sides of the leaves are light green with purple veins and highlights. The dark leaf stems are reddish-black.

Bright, indirect light provides the best fuel for your alocasia to achieve its rapid growth. If you choose a location with too much direct light, your alocasia may suffer from scorched leaves. Scorched leaves may appear as a targeted brown spot on leaves or an overall orange tinge to foliage.
