'Pink Passion Albo Pink' takes that canvas and layers in variegation of genuine complexity. White and blush-pink sectors appear across the rich green foliage, shifting in intensity and distribution with every new leaf. As a chimeric albo expression, no two leaves will be identical, and the balance between white, pink and green is unpredictable in the best possible way, which makes each unfurl worth waiting for.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe pink element adds a further layer of instability and rarity. Pink variegation in Alocasia is inherently more variable than standard albo expression, and the combination of both types in a single cultivar is what pushes 'Pink Passion Albo Pink' firmly into specimen territory. Bright indirect light, high humidity and consistent warmth will give this plant the best conditions in which to express its full variegation potential.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAll plants are grown in \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.thealocasiacompany.co.uk\/products\/fluval-stratum-non-bio\"\u003eFluval Stratum\u003c\/a\u003e, our preferred early-stage medium for corms and baby Alocasia, held in our 3D printed \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.thealocasiacompany.co.uk\/products\/corm-keeper-3d-printer-rack\"\u003eCorm Keeper\u003c\/a\u003e stand.
