This listing includes 2 exact Alocasia 'Portora Aurea' starter plants, a variegated tropical aroid appreciated for its bold foliage and yellow-to-golden aurea coloration. Young plants continue developing their leaf size, shape, and coloration as new growth emerges, making each specimen naturally distinctive.
You will receive the specific plants pictured. Because these are living plants, they may gain or lose leaves between the time the listing photographs are taken and shipment. Aurea variegation can also vary naturally from leaf to leaf, so new foliage may display different amounts or patterns of coloration.
These are starter plants cultivated using 2-inch nursery pots and are not fully rooted into the 2-inch pots. The provided shipping information contains conflicting statements about whether they ship in pots or bare root without the nursery pots. The final shipping method should therefore be verified before publishing.
