Elephant Ear 'Tiger'
Alocasia Zebrina Tiger
Easy Care
Behold one of nature's great quirks!
The Alocasia Elephant Ear 'Tiger' boasts sturdy animal-print rhizomatic stems. Multiple stems are branching off from a single base and broad arrow-shaped Elephant Ear leaves!
All Alocasias are loved for their big, arrow-shaped leaves, but it has the added attraction of animal print stems.
Though the glory of the Zebrina is in its 90s jungle-print, the leaves are also pretty amazing, with their strongly articulated veins and deep green colouring. The leaves, as you can see in the photo, grow in neat little curls and unfurl as they grow. A truly unique beauty that brings that WOW in every room.
- Alocasias like high humidity, bright indirect light, warmth, and lightly moist soil
- Relatively easy to care for, so perfect for plant beginners
- Statement piece that works in every room with sufficient light
- Brings that jungle and exotic feeling with its animal print stems into your home
