All the fun of the classically Instagram-able Alocasia Polly but half the size, the “bambino” variety of this plant is just as striking as its larger cousin. The scalloped edges and glossy finish of its leaves are sleek and elegant, and it’s smaller form makes it a unique addition to bookshelves and desks.

LOCATION AND LIGHT:

Like the vast majority of Alocasia, Polly Bambino will do best in BRIGHT INDIRECT LIGHT. The leaves of this plant are somewhat delicate and may scorch if exposed to prolonged direct beams of sun, but alocasia will not tolerate low light. East-facing and West-facing windows will provide ideal lighting conditions.

WATER:

This Alocasia is naturally found in subtropical areas of Southeast Asia, and like many other Alocasia varieties is a humidity lover. Regular misting and evenly moist soil are ideal. These plants appreciate a thorough watering when the first 2-3 inches of soil feels dry to the touch.
