Alocasia Regal Shields
Light
I will be happiest indoors where I can get bright, indirect light such as near a south or north-facing window. Make sure that I receive bright light daily but that rays of sunlight do not hit my leaves. I tend to grow in the direction that I am receiving light.
Temperature
Indoors in a Floridian home, I will be happy in an environment that is controlled around 77° F (25° C). Make sure that I am not in direct line of contact to air conditioning or heating vents. I would not like to receive cold or hot air blown at me.
Outdoors
I am resistant to wind, so feel free to place me in my container on balconies, terraces or backyards as long as I have some shade. I will not be as happy in direct or full sun.
Water
- Your plant's soil should be maintained evenly moist. Water about once a week to keep soil evenly moist but never soggy
-
If your plant gets too much water, it will drip water from the tip of the leaf, so keep an eye out for that and adjust your watering.
