The Alocasia 'Bambino' is an easy to care for variety featuring narrow, arrow-shaped green leaves and white veining. This plant thrives in bright, indirect light and needs a warm, humid environment for best growth. Be sure to keep the soil moist but not soggy, especially when it’s actively putting out new growth, and it’ll reward you with beautiful big new leaves and baby plants you can divide to propagate!
