The Alocasia Frydek is a classic and well loved house plant, prized for its dark velvety green foliage with bright white veining.
Frydek do prefer as much warmth & humidity as you can give them, however they do thrive in average household conditions.
General Care Guide
Lighting - The Alocasia can tolerate anything from indirect light to lower light conditions, but is happiest somewhere in between. Just be weary of direct sun, as this may cause the leaves to burn.
Watering - Alocasia in general don't mind having slightly wetter soil than other plants, but allow to dry at least 80% before re-watering.
Soil - When it comes time to re-pot, use a well draining, all-round soil mix, such as our GrowingGreen House Plant Mix. If you are someone who has always struggled with alocasia, we highly recommend giving either Lechuza Pon or Bio Leaf Bio Pon a go!
Fertiliser - We recommend feeding every time you water using a fertiliser, such as GT Foliage Focus or SuperThrive Foliage Pro to help your plant thrive!
