Alocasia ‘Dwarf Amazonica‘ is a relatively small alocasia, and packs the dramatic look of the classic African Mask plant into a compact, tabletop size. Closely related to Alocasia 'Polly', its glossy, arrow‑shaped leaves flaunt deep green blades dramatically etched with bright white veins and rich purple undersides, creating instant rainforest vibes in even the smallest spaces. Bred as a miniature selection of the famed Amazonica hybrid, MicroStarts' 'Dwarf Amazonica' have a glossy, wax like, or leathery texture that really makes them stand out in any plant collection. A favorite among collectors and interior stylists alike, this dwarf Alocasia brings sculptural elegance and bold color wherever it grows.
