Alocasia Frydek – Micholitziana Elephant Ear Care Guide

Embrace the tropical charm of the Alocasia Frydek, a plant that combines breathtaking foliage with air-purifying qualities. Perfect for adding a touch of drama to your indoor jungle!

☀️ Light

☀️☀️▫️ (Medium)

The Alocasia Frydek thrives in bright, indirect light. Position it in a spot where it can bask in plenty of light without being exposed to harsh direct sunlight, which can scorch its stunning leaves.

💧 Water

💧💧▫️ (Medium)

Keep the soil consistently moist, but be cautious not to overwater. Allow the top inch of soil to dry out slightly before watering again to prevent root rot.

💧️ Temperature

🌡️️🌡️️🌡️️ (Warm)

Alocasia Frydek prefers a warm environment. Aim to keep the temperature between 18°C to 24°C. Avoid draughty areas and sudden temperature fluctuations to keep your plant happy.

💦 Humidity

💦💦💦 (High)

This plant loves humidity! A humidity level of 60% or higher is ideal. Consider using a humidifier or placing it in naturally humid areas like kitchens or bathrooms if possible.

💦 Repotting

Repot your Alocasia Frydek every 2-3 years or when it outgrows its pot. Use a well-draining potting mix, ideally our Highland Moss Aroid premium potting mix, to ensure healthy growth and drainage.

🐾 Pet Friendliness

Be cautious as the Alocasia Frydek is toxic to pets. Keep it out of reach of curious cats and dogs.

🪴 Recommended Locations at Home

Authentic Photos of Our Plants: We take every photo you see, showcasing the actual plants we offer. Each plant is selected randomly unless otherwise stated, adding a touch of surprise to your order.

Natural Variations Make Each Plant Unique: No two plants are the same. Differences in size, leaf count, and minor cosmetic imperfections are part of their charm and individuality, making your plant truly one of a kind.

Healthy Plants, Always: While we can’t guarantee an exact match to the photos, we promise to send only happy, healthy plants that are well-cared for and ready to thrive in your space.

Let Your Plant Settle: Allow your new plant to adjust to its surroundings for 1–2 weeks before repotting, propagating, or making any major changes. This settling-in period reduces stress and helps your plant flourish.

Shipped-in Trusted Potting Mix: Our plants are delivered in a standard grower’s potting mix. When you’re ready to repot, choose from our premium-quality mixes designed specifically for aroids, succulents, and terrariums, available in our shop.

Expert Guidance on Repotting: I’m unsure if it’s time to repot. Check out our article, When to Repot Your Plant, for expert advice on keeping your plant healthy and happy.

Support for Climbing Plants: For Monstera, Philodendron, and Syngonium, add one of our handmade sphagnum moss poles and a watering drip cup. These accessories encourage natural growth, support larger leaves, and keep your plants neat and upright.
