Alocasia Bambino Arrow
Jewel Alocasia
Alocasia Bambino Arrow has a very similar appearance to Alocasia Amazonica, but is smaller. This tropical beauty has varied and attractive leaves with an exotic appearance. The leaf blades are typically 15-18 cm long and about 5cm wide with a dark purple underside.
This is a compact Alocasia ideal for table tops and shelves as it does not get as big as the standard Alocasia Amazonica. It is an exceptionally decorative plant and a real must for all plant lovers!
