Whale Fin
Alocasia Whalefin is a striking indoor plant known for its distinctive, elongated leaves that resemble the fins of a whale. The plant features large, deeply veined foliage with a unique, dark green to grayish color that adds a touch of sophistication to any plant collection. Its bold, dramatic appearance makes it an impressive addition to any bioactive vivarium or indoor garden.
Care
Lighting Requirement: Alocasia Whalefin thrives in bright, indirect light. It can tolerate lower light conditions but may exhibit slower growth and less vibrant foliage. Direct sunlight should be avoided as it can scorch the leaves.
Watering & Humidity: Water the plant when the top 1-2 inches of soil are dry. Ensure the pot has good drainage to prevent waterlogging and root rot. Alocasia Whalefin prefers high humidity, so regular misting or the use of a humidity tray can help maintain optimal moisture levels and promote healthy growth.
Temperature Requirement: The ideal temperature range for Alocasia Whalefin is between 65-80°F (18-27°C). Keep the plant away from cold drafts and temperatures below 50°F (10°C) to ensure it remains healthy and vibrant.
