Alocasia lauterbachiana – 2–3” Starter
Upright Growth | Deep Purple Stems | Statement Foliage

Meet your spiky, sculptural, slightly dramatic new favorite: Alocasia lauterbachiana, aka the Purple Sword. With long, narrow, wavy-edged leaves and striking dark stems, this plant delivers full-on prehistoric chic — but in a manageable, indoor-friendly size.

It’s upright, architectural, and thrives with a bit of humidity and attention. As it grows, it becomes the kind of plant people ask about. And you’ll be like, “Oh, that? Just my lauterbachiana doing her thing.”

This listing is for a 2–3” rooted starter, perfect for leveling up your shelf game without breaking the pot.

Care Tips:

  • Bright, indirect light (avoid harsh direct sun)

  • Keep soil evenly moist, but not soggy

  • Loves humidity — mist regularly or use a pebble tray

  • Avoid cold drafts or dry air (she will not be chill about it)

Plant nerd bonus: Alocasia lauterbachiana is native to Borneo and can grow over 3 feet tall indoors with the right care. It’s not fast, but it’s worth the wait.

Shipped with care in protective packaging. Always rooted, always healthy.
