Alocasia Cuprea Super Pink Variegated #05

Plant type: Live variegated jewel Alocasia houseplant, supplied as the Super Pink selection.

The Alocasia Cuprea Super Pink Variegated is a true jewel aroid.

Its iridescent, metallic shield-shaped leaves and deeply impressed veins divide the sculpted leaves into raised metallic panels, while the glossy surface shifts through pink, cream, copper, bronze and deep green as the viewing angle changes. Turn the leaf and a rich reddish-purple reverse completes the warm, mineral palette.

Then comes the pink. Rose, deep, blush and pale albo sectors move through the same iridescent tissue, so the variegation does not look flat or painted on, it glows with the leaf's natural metallic sheen. Every specimen is its own piece of art.

Growing location: Indoors as a houseplant, or in a heated greenhouse, in bright, indirect light. Keep warm and sheltered from cold draughts; protect from frost.

Care: Place it in bright, indirect light to support strong growth and visible pink expression while protecting the glossy foliage from harsh direct sun. Aim for steady warmth around 20–27°C, humidity above 60% and regular gentle airflow. Water when the upper compost is approaching dryness, then allow excess water to drain completely - free draining, loose mix is essential for this plant in order to mimic its natural habitat. Use an open, free-draining aroid mix and never leave the roots waterlogged.
