Alocasia 'Sarian'

Alocasia 'Sarian' is a cultivated hybrid developed from tropical Alocasia species native to Southeast Asia. It grows in warm, humid, and shaded understory conditions, with large, sagittate leaves that have wavy or subtly serrated margins and contrasting pale venation. The plant has an upright, self-heading growth habit, arising from a compact corm-like basal structure that produces fibrous feeder roots.
