Description

Our Rare Plant Collection has been carefully crafted and hand-selected by experts from our sources around the world. These rare plants are available to avid plant collectors and the "plant curious" alike. These unusual varieties are grown using quality practices to ensure healthy, mature plants. This plant needs to be kept consistently moist, but not wet. They should be allowed to retain a small amount of moisture at all times. That said you need to be careful that it does not dry rot. Using a liquid fertilizer, which contains a more or less equal ratio of Nitrogen, Phosphorus, and Potassium will work best. Fertilize about once every 6 weeks in the growing season (spring and summer) and once every 8-12 weeks in the autumn and winter. Alocasia Dawn (U.S. Patent Pending NO. 17323485) is a unique plant from the Rare Plant Collection cultivated by Nature’s Way Farms. This plant is a RARE variety grown using the strict quality standards. This striking evergreen plant has large, marbled green and white heart-shaped leaves that are sure to be the focal point of any plant collection. The Alocasia Dawn is a tall and widely spreading plant, your will need ample space to grow. Fully grown, they can be as tall as 1.6m and almost as wide. They are slow growers so don't worry you have time! Just make sure it has enough space around it to get enough light and air circulation and that other plants do not crowd it. These plants are of tropical nature which makes them very sensitive to colder environments and they start to suffer below 60 degrees Fahrenheit. Warm, summery temperatures suit them best and help them thrive. Alocasia Dawn is large, upright plant that does well indoors as well as covered patios provided the necessary conditions are right. They do best in bright, indirect light. Do not place them in direct sunlight. The light needs to be bright but indirect or if indoors, filtered through a curtain or shade cloth to prevent leaves from scorching and burning. Alocasias do not need too much space for their roots to spread. They will do well in a pot that is a snug fit for the root ball. The container must drain well and be a suitable size and weight to support the plant’s height and width, without toppling over. The ideal potting soil is a 5:1:1 mix made by mixing 5-parts bark, 1-part potting soil or peat moss, and 1-part perlite. This creates a light, airy, well-draining mixture that still retains some moisture for slow release. We are a woman-owned, independent quality grower in South Florida.
