{"product_id":"alocasia-sarian","title":"Alocasia Sarian","description":"\u003cp\u003eA larger growing Alocasia, Sarian is commonly known as the Sarian Elephant Ear. This statuesque beauty can reach 2.5m in it's natural tropical environment, but as an indoor plant it will be far smaller, but no less impressive. The large green leaves are glossy with a prominent white vein through the leaf and are supported by tall elegant stems. Juvenile leaves tend to be more arrow shaped, becoming a lovely angular shape as the plant ages.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003estunning new introduction, Alocasia Ninja is an absolute beauty! With dark green, almost black leaves heavily embossed with shiny prominent silver veining, this amazing plant will be the envy of all your friends.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA super exotic looking foliage plant, Alocasia loves a warm humid environment. Grows best in a sheltered draught free position in bright indirect light and regular watering is required whilst the plant is actively growing. Water once the soil becomes dry and do not do not let the plant become waterlogged as this will cause fungal issues and most likely death. For best results fertilise regularly with a slow release fertiliser and repot every few years using a good quality potting mix for indoor plants. In warmer climates, these gorgeous plants will brighten up a sheltered shady position outside.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAlocasia are a little bit more tricky than many other indoor plants; they tend to have a dormant period during the cooler months, and this can be a little discerning for many new growers as it is often unclear how to look after them whilst dormant. Simply keep plants a little drier when they are dormant, but ensure the soil or potting mix does not dry completely as this will cause the rhizomes to dry and die off completely.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCAUTION Harmful if eaten \/skin irritant\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Garden Express Australia","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53828255678648,"sku":"P10ALOSAR","price":15.9,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0928\/0805\/2920\/files\/alocasia-p10alosar-sarian.jpg?v=1785380814","url":"https:\/\/gardenexpress.com.au\/products\/alocasia-sarian","provider":"Garden Express Australia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
