Alocasia Amazonica 'Bambino'

🌿 Alocasia Amazonica ‘Bambino’

Common Name: Bambino

Botanical Name: Alocasia amazonica

Description:

The Alocasia Amazonica ‘Bambino’ is a striking miniature variety of the popular Alocasia family. Its narrow, arrowhead-shaped leaves are deep green with bold, silvery-white veins that create a dramatic contrast, while the undersides reveal a rich burgundy hue. This compact beauty adds a touch of tropical luxury to any indoor jungle—but it does demand a bit of extra care and attention.

Light:  

Place in bright, indirect view of the sky. Avoid direct sunlight, which can scorch the leaves.

Water:

Keep soil evenly moist but never soggy—think damp like a sponge, not dripping. Allow only the top 25% of soil to dry before watering again.

Temperature & Humidity:

Thrives in warm, humid environments. Keep away from cold drafts, vents, and windows in winter—this plant is very sensitive to the cold.

Pet Safety:

🚫 Toxic to pets if ingested.

Fleurish Tip:

To keep your Bambino happy, mimic its rainforest roots—place it on a pebble tray or near a humidifier, and never let it feel a chill! 💚
