Alocasia Polly ,Elephant Ear, African Shield

Size : 35cm-45cm

The Alocasia Polly is a plant with distinct dark green leaves and veins of white colour on top. Commonly known as the African Mask Plant, this is a unique looking, attractive houseplant which comes from the Alocasia genus. Placing the Polly in partial shade and in well-drained, moist soil are key recommendations for this plant, whilst it also prefers places with higher humidity, making bathrooms the perfect indoor environment. African Mask, alocasia colorations, leaf patterns, and overall plant size vary greatly by cultivar. Alocasia is a tropical plant that is increasingly becoming popular as houseplants.

Part of the popular Elephant's Ear (Alocasia) family, The Polly is beautiful, elegant, and incredibly easy to maintain as a houseplant. This stunner will grow a thick trunk in time and will increase the size of its leaves, but will not get as large as its relative, the Amazonica, making it a great show stopper for smaller spaces.

Keep your Elephants Ear Polly houseplant in a warm well-lit space and provide it with evenly moist soil and some humidity to keep it looking fabulous all year round. Pair with a gorgeous planter of choice and use it as a tabletop accent piece or an ornamental space filler on a curated shelf.
