  • Alocasia Jacklyn (Rare Tandurusa) - 4" Pot

    Alocasia Jacklyn (Rare Tandurusa) – 4″ Pot

    $48.00

    The Jewel of Indonesia The Alocasia Jacklyn is a must-have showstopper for any serious collector. Known for its striking, almost prehistoric look, this plant features deep green foliage with a unique “fuzzy” texture and dramatic, dark venation that looks like it was etched by hand.

    Why You’ll Love It:

    • Exotic Silhouette: One of the most unique leaf shapes in the Alocasia world.

    • Compact Growth: Perfect for shelves or display cabinets.

    • Statement Piece: Instantly elevates the “rare” factor of your indoor jungle.

    Care Essentials:

    • Light: Thrives in bright, indirect light. Avoid direct sun, which can damage the intricate leaf texture.

    • Watering: Prefers to stay consistently moist but never soggy. Water when the top inch of soil feels dry.

    • Soil: Requires a very chunky, airy mix to prevent root rot. (Pairs perfectly with our Grow With Us Substrate!)

    Note: You will receive a plant similar in size and health to the one pictured. Alocasia are prone to minor “shipping stress”; please allow the plant to acclimate in a humid spot before repotting.

    • Rare Aesthetic: A designer plant that stands out in any collection.

    • Hardy Nature: Combines the beauty of a rare variegated plant with the resilient DNA of the Rubber Tree family.

    • Clean Air: Like all Ficus, it’s excellent at filtering indoor air.

    Care Essentials:

    • Light: Needs bright, indirect light to maintain its vibrant variegation. Avoid direct afternoon sun, which can scorch the lighter parts of the leaves.

    • Watering: Allow the top 2 inches of soil to dry out before watering. Ensure proper drainage to keep roots healthy.

    • Soil: Thrives in a chunky, well-draining mix. (We highly recommend our Grow With Us Substrate!)

    Note: You will receive a plant similar in size and variegation to the one pictured. Ficus are sensitive to travel; please allow 2 weeks for your plant to acclimate to its new home before repotting.
