A rare and captivating tropical beauty, the Alocasia pseudo-sanderiana 'Pink' is an imposter in name but a showstopper in reality. The Latin “pseudo” means “false” or “imposter,” referencing its close resemblance to the true Alocasia sanderiana while being a distinct species in its own right.
This variety boasts elegant, arrow-shaped leaves with striking white venation and subtle pink tones that peek through the stems and undersides. Its refined form and rare colouring make it a must-have for serious collectors.
Potting preference: Thrives best in a semi-LECA setup (semi-hydroponics with LECA clay balls) for optimal aeration, root health, and low-maintenance watering.
Light: Bright, indirect light.
Watering: Keep roots consistently moist but never soggy; in semi-LECA, top up the reservoir when low.
Humidity: Enjoys 60%+ for lush growth.
Whether you’re a seasoned collector or an adventurous beginner, this “imposter” will quickly become a star in your indoor jungle.
