Alocasia Jacklyn Albo (Tandurusa): Rare White Variegated Houseplant
Looking for one of the most coveted Alocasia in the plant world? The Alocasia Jacklyn Albo (also known as Alocasia Tandurusa Albo) sits at the top end of rare houseplant collecting, with white variegation and distinctive textured foliage.
Why Plant Collectors Seek Out Alocasia Jacklyn Albo
This sought-after Alocasia cultivar combines the familiar features of the classic Jacklyn with white variegation running throughout each leaf. The large, wide leaves carry the unique "hairy" texture and bold shape that made the original Jacklyn well known, while bright white streaks give strong contrast against the deep green base.
A Collector's Alocasia
As one of the most wanted Alocasia houseplants available, the Jacklyn Albo carries real visual weight for serious plant enthusiasts. Its rare variegated form takes the already popular Tandurusa a step further, making it a natural addition to an advanced tropical plant 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.
