How to take care of Alocasia Odora Variegated

Sun: Indirect

Alocasia Odora Variegated thrives in bright, indirect light. A spot near an east- or west-facing window is ideal. Avoid low-light corners to maintain healthy variegation.

Light: Medium – Bright

They enjoy some morning or late afternoon sun, but protect from harsh midday rays to avoid leaf burn.

Water: When mostly dry

Water when the top 2–3 inches of soil feel dry. Avoid letting the roots sit in water, as this plant is prone to rot. Always empty the saucer.

Humidity: High

They love humidity! While they'll tolerate average home levels, aim for 60% or more for lush foliage, consider a humidifier or grouping with other plants.

Pet Friendly: No

Alocasia Odora Variegated is toxic to pets and humans if ingested. Keep it out of reach of curious paws and hands.

Pro Tip

Rotate the pot weekly to ensure even growth and prevent the plant from leaning toward the light. Wipe down the leaves monthly to keep the variegation vibrant and pest-free.

Your Complete Guide to Pot Sizes: What Size Should You Choose?

When selecting a pot for your plant, it's important to find the right size. But with all the different options out there, how do you know which one is best? We're here to help!

MyGreenscape's pot sizes chart is a great resource for finding your perfect fit. Our easy-to-read chart takes out all the guesswork and helps you quickly choose the right size for your plant.

Smaller pots are best for seedlings or small plants just starting out. These tend to be shallow but wide, allowing enough room for the roots of the young plant but not too much where they get overcrowded. Medium-sized pots are ideal when your plant has grown from its infancy and is ready for more space. These are deeper and wider than small pots, so that it can accommodate larger root systems - making sure your plant gets enough nourishment while still giving it breathing room. Large pots are top choice if you have an established plant in need of lots of space - think trees and large shrubs! The spacious depth and width allow plenty of room for deep root systems without struggling for air or light.

No matter what size you choose, MyGreenscape has got you covered, with our pot sizes chart guaranteeing you find the perfect fit every time!
