Alocasia Platinum (Silver Arrow) Live Plant

What You Will Receive: You will receive one (1) healthy Alocasia 'Platinum' starter plant, currently standing 5-9 inches tall. This rare botanical gem is shipped well-rooted and ready for your favorite decorative pot, offering an affordable way to add a high-value collector's plant to your indoor jungle.

Stunning "Metallic" Visuals: Elevate your home decor with foliage that looks almost artificial in its perfection. The 'Platinum' features thick, arrow-shaped leaves with a shimmering, silvery-blue hue and contrasting dark blue veins. The unique matte finish reflects light beautifully, creating a "glowing" effect that stands out sharply against standard green houseplants.

Perfect for Modern Spaces: Design a sophisticated look effortlessly. As a compact "Jewel" variety, this Alocasia stays tidy and manageable, rarely exceeding 2 feet. It is the ideal architectural accent for minimalist offices, coffee tables, or bright bathroom shelves, adding a touch of cool-toned elegance without cluttering your space.

Air-Purifying Beauty: Breathe easier while enjoying your view. Like many aroids, the Alocasia Platinum works to filter common indoor air pollutants, contributing to a cleaner, fresher environment. It’s a functional piece of living decor that improves your home's atmosphere in more ways than one.

A "Jewel" That Lasts: Enjoy the reward of growing something special. Unlike fragile flowers that fade, the 'Platinum' offers year-round structural beauty. It thrives in humidity, making it an excellent companion for kitchens and bathrooms where other plants might struggle with moisture levels.

Care & Guarantee: Unpack immediately. Shipped bare-root/semi-bare root with moisture protection to ensure eco-friendly, safe travel. Jewel Alocasias are sensitive; it is normal for the oldest leaf to yellow/drop as it adjusts to your home. We guarantee healthy arrival; please contact us with photos within 24 hours if issues arise.
