🌿 Alocasia ‘Ninja Tricolour’ Care Guide

Ninja Tricolour is all about compact sophistication — velvety dark foliage beautifully marbled with shades of cream, mint, and green, making every leaf a unique work of art. Small in size but big on impact, this rare Alocasia is perfect for collectors looking to add something truly special to their indoor jungle. 🌿✨

☀️ Light

• Thrives in bright, indirect light
• Strong filtered light helps maintain vibrant tricolour variegation
• Avoid direct sun — lighter areas can scorch easily
• Too little light may reduce variegation and slow growth

💧 Water

• Keep soil lightly moist, but never soggy
• Allow the top layer of soil to dry slightly between waterings
• Use a chunky, well-draining aroid mix
• Excellent drainage is essential to keep roots healthy

🌫️ Humidity

• Prefers high humidity (65–85%)
• Higher humidity encourages healthy foliage and smooth unfurling
• Warm, stable temperatures promote consistent growth
• Protect from cold draughts and sudden temperature changes

🍽️ Feeding

• Feed every 2–4 weeks during active growth
• Use a balanced diluted liquid fertiliser
• Reduce feeding during cooler months or dormancy

🌱 Quick Tips

• Tricolour plants naturally grow more slowly than green forms
• Chunky, airy substrate helps prevent root issues
• Ideal for display cabinets or warm, humid rooms
• Rotate occasionally for even growth
