Alocasia ‘Platinum’ Care

Light: Provide bright, indirect light for your Alocasia ‘Platinum’.

Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist but not soggy. Alocasia ‘Platinum’ prefers slightly more moisture than some other houseplants. Water when the top inch (2.5 cm) of soil feels dry, but ensure proper drainage to prevent overwatering.

Humidity: Alocasia ‘Platinum’ appreciates higher humidity levels.

Temperature: Keep the plant in a warm environment with temperatures between 65°F to 80°F (18°C to 27°C).

Soil: Use a well-draining potting mix that retains some moisture. A mix of regular potting soil with peat moss, perlite, or orchid bark can provide good drainage while retaining moisture.

Fertilizing: During the growing season (spring and summer), feed your Alocasia ‘Platinum’ with a diluted, balanced liquid fertilizer every 4-6 weeks.
