Common Names: Alocasia Serendipity, Black Elephant Ear
Description: Alocasia Serendipity is a tall plant with large, heart-shaped purplish-green leaves with very dark purple undersides. The stems and veins on the leaf undersides are lime green. Being a jungle plant, it prefers shady conditions and rich consistently moist soils and protection from drying or damaging winds and harsh afternoon sunlight. These conditions can be achieved in a pot placed in a sheltered location, or as part of a moist understory planting or shady border.
