Variant

Alocasia Jacklyn, aka Alocasia Tandursa Jacklyn, is a unique-looking plant that’s very different from most Alocasia varieties. It has stunning vibrant green arrowhead-shaped leaves, with contrasting dark deep veins running through it and striped stems. Just like other popular Alocasia, this species won’t grow to great heights indoors. Alocasia is toxic to both people and animals, so they are not to be ingested.

What to expect

The plant comes with a default nursery pot. The nursery pot is usually 0.5" - 1" smaller than stated to fit into the same size decorative pot. Washable Paper Planter Bags are sold separately.

As with all living things, no two plants are alike. There is some natural variation in size, shape, and characteristics. We make every effort to bring you a plant that as closely as possible matches the plant as it appears on our website, in the size you have chosen, and have a good potential to happily grow in your home.

Pro tips

Fertilize your Alocasia 'Jacklyn' every 4-6 weeks during the growing season with a diluted, balanced liquid fertilizer to encourage growth. During the winter months, reduce fertilization as the plant's growth naturally slows. Clean the leaves regularly to allow the plant to photosynthesize efficiently and check for pests such as spider mites or aphids. During the Alocasia Jacklyn’s dormancy in the winter months, where its growth slows significantly and it is prone to leaf loss, move it to somewhere warm and bright, while reducing your watering until it starts growing again in spring. If it has become root bound, repot the plant in the spring by planting it into a pot one size up.

Care Guide

How to take care of Alocasia Jacklyn

Sun: Indirect

Alocasia Jacklyn should not be in a position to see the sun directly, although early morning or late evening sun is fine. Filtered sunlight through a sheer curtain is best and most homes are comprised primarily of indirect sunlight. The best spot for them is where they do not see the sun during the majority of the day but still get bright, indirect light.

Light: Medium - Bright

Alocasia Jacklyn will thrive in bright light, but also can tolerate medium light. A good medium-light place in your home would be in the middle of a room that has a regular size window. They can be placed anywhere between the middle of the room and the window. Remember that plants will grow based on how much light they receive.

Water: When half dry

Alocasia Jacklyn needs to be watered when the top half of the soil is dry to the touch. That usually takes about 1 week in an average home environment. It will vary depending on the time of year, your environment and lighting conditions, but it's always safer to underwater or give the soil a check before you water again. Expect to water more often in brighter light and less often in lower light.

Humidity: High

Alocasia Jacklyn likes a high humidity environment, give them a mist daily or as often as possible. Alternatively, you can put them around a humidifier. Although they won't die if they don't receive enough humidity, their leaves may have some dry, crunchy, or yellow edges.

Pet Caution

Alocasia Jacklyn is moderately toxic and can cause some adverse reactions when ingested so it is best to not let your pets eat it, which we advise for all plants in general. The severity of the reaction will depend on how much of the plant is ingested but, if you know your pet typically does not eat your plants, this plant will be suitable for your home.
