Alocasia 'Triangularis' - Alocasia with narrow, deeply wavy leaves

Alocasia 'Triangularis' is a tropical collector's variety, prized for its unusual, narrow and strongly wavy leaves, with twisted edges and an almost sculptural appearance. Its glossy, dark green foliage, supported by long, elegant petioles, gives the plant a very distinctive silhouette compared to classic Alocasias.

✨ What makes it special

• leaves with an unusual, highly wavy shape
• sculptural, architectural appearance
• airy, elegant silhouette
• an interesting variety for collectors
• visually very different from broad-leaved Alocasias
• decorative even at small sizes

📌 Note: Leaf shape naturally varies. The degree of waviness, twisting, and arching can differ from one leaf to another and from one plant to another, and new leaves may initially have a different shape from mature ones.

Alocasia is sensitive to handling, and the leaves may have small creases, spots, dry edges, or other aesthetic imperfections, without these normally affecting the plant’s viability.

The decorative pot is not included in the price.
