Add a distinctive tropical aroid to your indoor plant collection with this set of 2 Alocasia Mandalay starter plants. This attractive Alocasia is valued for its bold foliage, prominent veining, and upright growth habit, making it a popular choice for collectors and tropical houseplant enthusiasts.
This listing includes 2 healthy starter plants with developing root systems. Plants are grown in 2-inch nursery pots for cultivation but are not fully rooted into the pots, making them ideal for growers looking for young plants. Each plant ships bare root with its original soil pod carefully wrapped to help protect the developing roots during transit. Please do not remove or disturb the soil pod upon arrival.
Alocasias are naturally sensitive to shipping and may experience leaf loss during transit. This is normal. As rhizomatous plants, healthy specimens typically produce new growth from their underground rhizomes under suitable growing conditions.
