☀️ Light
☀️☀️▫️ (Medium)
The Alocasia Red Secret thrives in bright, indirect light. Avoid direct sunlight as it may scorch the unique metallic leaves. A spot near a window with a sheer curtain would be ideal for this stunning plant.
? Water
??▫️ (Medium)
Keep the soil consistently moist during the growing season (spring and summer), but not waterlogged. In winter, allow the topsoil to dry out slightly between waterings. Overwatering can cause root rot, so be cautious not to let it sit in water.
?️ Temperature
?️?️?️ (Warm)
Alocasia Red Secret prefers warm temperatures typical of indoor environments. Aim for temperatures between 18°C to 25°C. Avoid draughty areas and sudden temperature changes which can stress the plant.
? Humidity
??? (High)
This tropical beauty loves high humidity. Regular misting, a humidity tray, or a nearby humidifier can help meet its needs, especially during dry winter months.
? Repotting
Alocasia Red Secret should be repotted every two to three years or when it outgrows its pot. Use a well-draining potting mix to prevent water retention and promote healthy root growth.
? Pet Friendliness
This plant is not pet-friendly. It’s best to keep it out of reach if you have curious pets at home.
? Recommended Locations at Home
Place your Alocasia Red Secret in a well-lit bathroom to take advantage of the higher humidity, or in any living space with bright indirect light. Just ensure it’s away from direct sunlight to protect its stunning leaves.
? Air Purifying
Alocasia plants are known for their ability to help purify the air, making them not just beautiful but also beneficial for your indoor environment.
✨ Other Plant Features
The Alocasia Red Secret is known for its vibrant, metallic leaves which change colour as they mature, adding a dynamic beauty to your plant collection. Despite the possible slight leaf damage during transport, this does not affect the overall health and vibrancy of the plant.
