Discover the enigmatic charm of the Alocasia Samar Lance, a rarer botanical treasure hailing from the verdant depths of Samar Island in the Philippines. This plant's arresting beauty lies in its extraordinary lance-shaped leaves, embossed with a pattern so intricate, you'd think it was nature's own embroidery. The foliage unfurls a tender light green, gradually transforming into a deep, mesmerising green dappled with a subtle blue hue. Mature leaves reveal a thick, leathery texture that whispers tales of tropical origin and resilience. This Alocasia Samar Lance is not just a plant; it's a visual experience that unfolds over time and begs for a closer look to capture its full glory.

Beautiful plant but lost 4 healthy leaves in transit, which was a shame. (Two were already off and the other two’s stems were so bent they needed to be removed.
I won’t be sending it back though because it would be a shame to reject such a beautiful plant.
