Care Guide for Alocasia ‘Polly’
Light
Alocasia ‘Polly’ thrives in bright, indirect light. Too much direct sun can scorch the leaves, while too little light can lead to drooping and slow growth. It’s happiest near an east- or north-facing window or a few feet back from a brighter south- or west-facing one.
Watering
Keep the soil consistently but lightly moist. Let the top 2–3cm dry before watering again. Avoid soggy soil, which can cause root rot. Water less frequently in winter when the plant may enter dormancy.
💡 Tip: Always use a pot with drainage holes and avoid letting the plant sit in water.
Humidity
High humidity is essential. Dry air can cause browning at the leaf edges. Increase humidity by:
-
Misting regularly
-
Using a pebble tray or humidifier
-
Grouping with other humidity-loving plants
Temperature
Alocasia ‘Polly’ prefers warmth and stability – ideal temperatures are 18–26°C. Avoid cold draughts, sudden temperature drops, or placing it near radiators.
Soil
Use a well-draining potting mix, such as a blend of indoor plant compost, orchid bark, and perlite. Good drainage is key to preventing root rot.
Feeding
Feed with a balanced houseplant fertiliser every 2–4 weeks during the growing season (spring and summer). No feeding is needed during winter dormancy.
Dormancy
Alocasia ‘Polly’ may enter dormancy in cooler, darker months. During this time, it may drop all its leaves – don’t panic. Reduce watering and keep the tuber dry but not bone dry. Resume normal care when new shoots emerge in spring.
Propagation
Propagate by dividing the rhizomes or offsets during repotting in spring. Alocasia 'Polly' does not propagate well from leaf cuttings.
Common Issues
-
Crispy edges or browning leaves: Low humidity or inconsistent watering
-
Drooping leaves: Underwatering, cold draughts, or light stress
-
Yellowing leaves: Overwatering or poor drainage
-
Spider mites or thrips: Check leaf undersides regularly; wipe with a damp cloth and treat if needed
Styling Tips
-
Great as a sculptural centrepiece on shelves, side tables, or windowsills
-
Pairs well with other tropicals like Calathea, Monstera, or Philodendron
-
Looks dramatic in ceramic or matte black pots to contrast with its glossy leaves
