The Alocasia ‘Venusta’ is a rare and elegant aroid native to the tropical rainforests of Borneo. It’s prized for its slender, lance-shaped leaves with a striking metallic sheen and prominent, contrasting white veins, giving it a delicate yet architectural appearance. Its upright growth habit and textured foliage make it a standout specimen in any indoor or shaded outdoor plant collection.

This Alocasia thrives in warm, humid conditions with well-draining soil that stays lightly moist but never soggy. It appreciates consistent humidity, regular watering during the growing season, and occasional fertilization to support its slow but steady growth. Protecting it from cold drafts and sudden temperature changes ensures healthy, vibrant leaves.

Direction of light: The Alocasia ‘Venusta’ prefers bright, indirect light to maintain its metallic sheen and vein contrast. Direct sunlight can scorch its delicate leaves, while too little light may cause slower growth and dull foliage. An east- or north-facing window, or filtered light from a south- or west-facing window, provides the ideal balance for this striking aroid to thrive.
