Add a touch of architectural drama to your home with the Alocasia Lauterbachiana, famously known as the "Purple Sword." This exotic tropical plant is a true showstopper, featuring long, narrow leaves with striking wavy edges. Its foliage is deep glossy green on top with a surprise deep purple-burgundy underside, all held up by beautifully mottled stems.
This Alocasia is delivered in a 19cm pot and currently stands at an impressive height of approximately 80cm. Its upright growth habit makes it the perfect focal point for a bright corner or a stylish plant stand.
Why the Alocasia Lauterbachiana belongs in your collection:
-
Dramatic Foliage: Elongated, sword-shaped leaves with unique scalloped margins and rich purple undersides.
-
Architectural Statement: With an 80cm height, it adds instant vertical interest and a tropical "jungle" feel to any room.
-
Collector’s Favorite: A unique alternative to the standard Elephant Ear varieties, prized for its sleek, narrow profile.
Care Essentials:
-
Light: Prefers a bright spot with plenty of indirect sunlight. Avoid direct afternoon sun, which can scorch the delicate leaves.
-
Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist but never soggy. Allow the top 2-3cm of soil to dry out between waterings.
-
Humidity: Being a tropical native, it loves high humidity. Mist the leaves regularly or place it near a humidifier to keep it thriving.
-
Temperature: Keep in a warm, stable environment (ideally 18-25°C) and protect from cold drafts.
