Alocasia sanderiana ‘Nobilis’ – Regal Shield of the Tropics 👑🌿

Alocasia sanderiana ‘Nobilis’ is a refined cultivar known for its narrow, arrow-shaped leaves with deep emerald tones and bold white veins. Its highly sculptural form and metallic sheen give it a regal, armour-like appearance, making it a prized feature in any rare plant collection.

Key Features:

✔ Unique narrow, lobed leaf shape with high gloss
✔ Compact, upright grower – ideal for decorative pots or plant stands
✔ Rare and distinctive species with a striking architectural look
✔ Perfect for high-humidity interiors and collectors’ spaces

Care Instructions:

• Light: Prefers bright, indirect light – too much sun can scorch leaves

• Watering: Keep soil evenly moist – let the top 2–3cm dry out slightly between waterings

• Humidity: Thrives in high humidity – mist often or place near a humidifier

• Soil: Use a chunky, free-draining aroid mix – perlite, orchid bark, and peat-based compost

• Feeding: Feed every 4–6 weeks in spring and summer with a diluted liquid fertiliser

• Temperature: Best in 18–26°C – protect from cold draughts

• Dormancy: May slow growth in winter – reduce watering and do not repot

🌿 Tip: Handle gently – the delicate leaves can be sensitive to touch and cold.
