Alocasia Green Giant 10”

The Green Giant Alocasia (Alocasia odora) lives up to its name with bold, oversized leaves that bring an instant tropical feel to any space. Native to Asia, this plant can grow impressively large, with broad, glossy green leaves that resemble elephant ears. To thrive indoors, it prefers bright, indirect light—such as near an east-facing window or a south-facing window filtered through a sheer curtain. Too much direct sun can scorch its leaves, while too little light may slow growth and cause the plant to look leggy. With the right lighting, the Green Giant develops its signature lush, dramatic foliage that makes it such a statement piece.

Caring for this alocasia involves providing consistently moist, well-draining soil while avoiding soggy conditions that could lead to root rot. It also loves humidity, making it a perfect candidate for a room with a humidifier or occasional misting. Regular rotation ensures balanced growth since the large leaves naturally lean toward their light source. With steady care, warmth, and the right light direction, the Green Giant Alocasia will reward you with vigorous growth and striking greenery that transforms your home into a tropical retreat.
