Alocasia Jacklyn D. ‘groen’

Alocasia Jacklyn is a terrestrial plant species that sprouts from a tuberous root in the soil. For every leaf this plant has a dark-green petiole. Leaves can grow to a maximum length of half a meter. The arrow-shaped leaves have a strong undulating leaf margin. The veins of this plant are dark green to black. This is in sharp contrast with the light-green base color of the leaves. The not spectacular eyeing inflorescence appears infrequently and looks similar to other aroids within this family. In some cases, this plant could lose all its leaves and could resprout from its tuber, after a rest period. Propagation is most often done by young offshoots from the base of the plant but is also possible with seed.
