Alocasia Tiny Dancer 4”

A newly developed hybrid, the Alocasia tiny dancer looks like something straight out of a Dr. Suess book. Characterized by curved stems and pointy, cup-shaped leaves, the Tiny Dancer is unique compared to other plants in the genus and was named the “most unusual aroid” by the International Aroid Society in 2013. It's a great choice if you're looking for a small, compact plant to add to your collection. This Alocasia reaches just 14 to 20 inches tall at maturity.

This tropical plant appreciates consistent moisture, warm temperatures, and lots of light. In ideal conditions it grows quickly - pushing out new growth every couple of weeks. As old growth dies off removing it will keep the plant looking clean, but otherwise pruning is not required. An absence of flowering is not cause for concern. Alocasia tiny dancer does not flower readily when grown indoors.

It prefers the filtered or indirect light of its natural environment. You can try filtering the direct light with a sheer curtain or window film to protect the delicate leaves. 

Water regularly so to keep the soil consistently moist. This plant won't tolerate soggy soil, so you need to find a balance between consistent watering and overwatering.
