The Alocasia Regal Shield is a striking tropical plant known for its large, dark green, shield-shaped leaves with pronounced veins. The leaves have a glossy texture that catches the light, and the plant's dramatic appearance makes it a statement piece in any indoor garden or plant collection.

 

Care Instructions

 

Light: Prefers bright, indirect light. Too much direct sunlight can scorch the leaves, while too little light can cause it to become leggy.

 

Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist, but not waterlogged. Allow the top 1–2 inches of soil to dry out slightly before watering again.

 

Humidity: Thrives in high humidity (60–80%). A humidifier, misting, or placing the plant on a pebble tray can help maintain optimal moisture.

 

Temperature: Prefers warm conditions between 18–27°C (65–80°F). Protect it from cold drafts and temperatures below 15°C (59°F).

 

Soil: Requires a well-draining, rich potting mix. A combination of potting soil, perlite, and orchid bark works well.

 

Fertilizer: Feed every 4–6 weeks during the growing season (spring and summer) with a balanced, diluted fertilizer.

 

 

Additional Notes

 

Growth Habit: This Alocasia can grow up to 3–4 feet tall, with its large, bold leaves creating an impressive display.

 

Dormancy: May slow down growth in cooler months, with some leaf loss. Reduce watering during this time.

 

Toxicity: Like other Alocasias, it is toxic if ingested, so keep it away from pets and children.
