Alocasia sinuata is a terrestrial plant species that sprouts from a tuberous root in the soil. For every leaf this plant has a light-colored petiole. Leaves can grow to a maximum length of 30 cm. The arrow-shaped leaves have a dark green color. Younger leaves have a light-green base color with darker veins. The veins of adult leaves are sunken into the leaf area. The leathery leaves are shiny when young and lose this shine with older age. It is possible for the leaf margins to be undulating, although this is not always seen. The unspectacular 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.
