Alocasia scalprum is an unusual jewel Alocasia with long, narrow leaves, deeply impressed veins, and a beautiful metallic green sheen. The thick, sculpted foliage can shift from deep green to almost blue-green depending on the light, giving this compact species a surprisingly dramatic look.
Native to the Philippines, Alocasia scalprum grows on the tropical forest floor and appreciates warmth, humidity, and gentle filtered light. It stays relatively compact, making it a great choice for someone who loves Alocasias but doesn't necessarily have room for a giant one.

PLANT CARE
+ Light: Medium to bright, filtered light. Avoid intense direct sun, which can scorch the dark foliage.
+ Water: Allow the soil to partially dry between waterings, then water thoroughly. It prefers to be watered before the soil becomes completely dry all the way through, but avoid keeping the roots soggy.
+ Humidity: Appreciates moderate to higher humidity, especially while new leaves are developing.
