Plant Look & Feel
Alocasia Serengeti is a dramatic, architectural beauty. Its elongated, arrow-shaped leaves boast a deep green base with bold, silvery-white veining that creates a lightning-like effect across each leaf. The leaves grow upright on strong stems, giving the plant a sculptural, tropical presence. Sleek, modern, and commanding, it’s perfect for collectors seeking a bold statement plant with character and elegance.
 
Care Guide
Light:
Bright, indirect light is ideal to highlight leaf veining
Avoid direct sunlight which can scorch leaves
Tolerates medium light but growth may slow
Water:
Keep soil lightly moist but never waterlogged
Water when the top 2–3 cm of soil dries out
Reduce watering in cooler months
Humidity:
Prefers high humidity (60%+) for optimal leaf health
Occasional misting or a humidifier helps
Temperature:
Thrives in 18–28°C
Avoid cold drafts and sudden temperature drops
Soil:
Well-draining aroid mix is essential (bark, perlite, coco peat or peat moss)
Good root airflow prevents rot
 
Pet & Reptile Safety
 Not pet or reptile safe
Contains calcium oxalate crystals
Toxic to cats, dogs, and reptiles if ingested
May cause irritation, drooling, or digestive upset
 
Quick Care Tips
Rotate plant for even growth
Maintain high humidity to keep leaves crisp and healthy
Wipe leaves to highlight veining and remove dust
Avoid overwatering — drainage is key
 
Troubleshooting
Yellowing leaves:
Usually due to overwatering or poor drainage. Let soil dry slightly.
Brown tips or edges:
Low humidity or inconsistent watering. Increase humidity and water evenly.
Drooping leaves:
Can indicate underwatering or sudden temperature changes.
Slow growth or dull leaf veining:
Often linked to low light. Move to brighter indirect light and feed lightly during the growing season.
