Alocasia zebrina
Alocasia zebrina is a tropical plant known for its striking appearance, featuring large, arrow-shaped leaves with prominent veins. The leaves can grow up to 2 feet long and are supported by tall, slender stems that resemble the stripes of a zebra, giving the plant its name. It thrives in warm, humid environments and is often grown indoors as an ornamental houseplant.
This species prefers bright, indirect light and well-draining soil to prevent root rot. Regular watering is essential, but the soil should be allowed to dry out slightly between waterings. Alocasia zebrina is sensitive to cold temperatures and should be kept in a warm environment to maintain its health and vibrancy.
