Alocasia ‘Platinum’ is a striking, silver-toned Alocasia grown for its cool metallic sheen and sculptural, upright growth. Its foliage has a distinctive pale, almost frosted appearance that sets it apart from deeper green varieties, giving it a contemporary, high-contrast look indoors.

This is a plant for collectors who appreciate texture and tone — the leaves appear almost dusted in platinum, with subtle veining and a smooth, slightly matte finish.


🌱 Foliage

  • Broad, shield-shaped leaves

  • Pale silver to muted sage tones

  • Subtle, softly defined veins

  • Smooth to lightly textured surface

  • Upright, architectural habit

The cooler colouring pairs beautifully with darker foliage plants and minimalist interiors.


📏 Growth & Size

  • Typical indoor height: 40–80 cm

  • Moderate growth in warm, stable conditions

  • Clump-forming from rhizomes

Leaf size and colour intensity improve with consistent warmth and light.


🌤️ Position & Light

  • Prefers bright, indirect light

  • Avoid harsh direct sun

  • Too little light may dull the silver tones

Bright conditions help maintain the platinum sheen without causing scorch.


💧 Watering

  • Keep soil evenly moist but not soggy

  • Allow the top 2–3 cm to dry between waterings

  • Reduce watering in winter

  • Ensure excellent drainage

Alocasias dislike sitting in cold, wet compost — a well-draining aroid mix is ideal.


🌡️ Temperature & Humidity

  • Ideal range: 18–26°C

  • Protect from cold draughts

  • Benefits from humidity above 50%

Stable warmth and humidity reduce the risk of leaf crisping.


🌿 Care Notes

  • May slow growth or shed older leaves in cooler months

  • Feed monthly during spring and summer

  • Wipe leaves occasionally to keep the metallic finish looking its best
