What collectors say
Care
Light. Bright, indirect light. Variegated tissue carries less chlorophyll and scorches more easily than green, so filter strong sun.
Water and humidity. Keep the substrate evenly moist, never wet. Aim for 60% humidity or higher.
Feeding. A balanced feed programme through spring and summer; ease off in winter.
Dormancy. An Alocasia that drops its leaves in the cold is usually resting, not dead. Keep it warm and barely moist and it will push again.
Delivery and arrival
Plants are dispatched Monday to Thursday only, so they never sit in a depot over a weekend. Every order is sent with a heat pack and packed plastic-free.
Free UK delivery on orders over £75. Unpack on arrival and give your plant a few days of steady conditions to acclimatise.
Every plant is covered by our 7-day live arrival guarantee. If there's a problem, email sales@thealocasiacompany.co.uk within 7 days of delivery with your order number and clear photos. Please don't repot in those first 7 days, as repotting voids the guarantee.
Pet safety
Like all aroids, this plant contains insoluble calcium oxalate crystals and is toxic if eaten. Keep it out of reach of cats, dogs and children.
About this cultivar
CHANTRIERI SILVER VARIEGATED
Alocasia Chantrieri Silver Variegated: Rare Silver Variegated Collector's Houseplant
The Alocasia Chantrieri Silver Variegated is a hybrid of Alocasia sanderiana × Alocasia cuprea, combining the rippled margins of sanderiana with the holographic surface of cuprea. This rare silver form carries pink tones through the leaf with silver variegation over the top.
A New Form of a Classic Hybrid
The silver form is extremely new to the market, and we have only three plants available. It keeps everything collectors value in Chantrieri, the shiny waxy foliage, thick wavy margins and glowing pale green veins, while the pink leaf colour and silver variegation give the holographic finish a character of its own.
A Plant for Advanced Collections
Suited to dedicated collectors seeking genuine botanical rarities, the silver variegated form sits alongside our Chantrieri Pink Variegated as one of the rarer expressions of this hybrid, and one of the first opportunities to add it to a UK collection.
All plants are grown in Fluval Stratum, our preferred early-stage medium for corms and baby Alocasia, held in our 3D printed Corm Keeper stand. Once fully rooted and at juvenile size we repot into our own pon mix, blended from components in our Soil Ninja range.
